InFocus Corporation recently announced SimpleShare, which company officials describe as “a point-to-point wireless presentation solution for wireless connectivity and sharing of videos, presentation, documents, data and more.”
SimpleShare is device-agnostic and “allows users to share high-definition video and sound wirelessly to any display with an HDMI input, from any PC, Mac, DVD player, tablet, camcorder and many other devices in real time,” according to the InFocus press release.
It “allows for a simple plug-and-play installation with no software, downloads, or network management required, making it incredibly user-friendly for anyone to implement without burdening the IT department,” according to the InFocus announcement.
Users can also switch between up to 254 presenters with the click of a button.
SimpleShare is available in three bundled solutions:
- The base model SimpleShare (INA-SIMS1) includes one transmitter and receiver for small meeting rooms
- SimpleShare wireless presentation system (INA-SIMPS1) is a complete conference room solution with three transmitters and a charging station
- SimpleShare Touch Presentation System (INA-SIMINT1) supports up to three presenters with wireless touch control from a touch display panel and allows users to annotate on anything they present from their source device, as well as draw and write on a built-in digital whiteboard
The new platform was designed with information security top of mind.[related]
It utilizes WPA2, the most secure encryption method available, developed by the Wi-Fi Alliance. Servicing a radius of 15 meters from the receiver, the AES-CCMP algorithm used is a cipher key encryption with variable key size and changes at varying intervals, preventing any possibility of leaked data or hacking.
“We recognize that companies and school districts have varying equipment and device preferences, and true collaboration is not always possible when you are forced into a singular platform,” said InFocus VP of Marketing Loren Shaw.
“With affordability and ease-of-use at the forefront, SimpleShare makes one-touch collaboration accessible to anyone – regardless of the equipment being used. It’s a game-changer for secure wireless sharing.”
SimpleShare is now available worldwide through InFocus resellers and will be available directly from the manufacturer, starting at $899 U.S. MSRP. InFocus will demonstrate the SimpleShare solutions at InfoComm 2018 [booth N1306] from June 6 to 8.
