Rise Vision introduced a new feature for its digital-signage-software solution that enables schools to quickly and effectively disseminate emergency alerts to students and staff. The feature works on interactive flatpanels from various brands. These include Promethean, SMART Technologies, Clear Touch, Clevertouch, Boxlight, Newline, BenQ, ViewSonic and Avocor.
With this feature, teachers can go about their day using the screen as a teaching tool. When the display receives an alert, Rise Vision will automatically stop the display as a teaching tool and then show the emergency alert. It thus provides students and staff the necessary time to react, says the Shawnee, Kansas-based company.
However, Rise Vision adds that the feature isn’t just for emergencies. If there is an important announcement from the principal or superintendent, or if staff wants to stream a morning announcement to every classroom, the user can easily interrupt all of the displays in the network to show this content. According to Rise Vision, it presents an optimal chance to get every student’s attention right away.

Rise Vision’s digital-signage-software solution is thus designed to help schools communicate essential information quickly and effectively. The addition of emergency alerts is also a critical component of this solution, as it helps schools ensure the safety of their community.
“We understand that school safety is of the utmost importance,” remarks Brian Loosbrock, CEO of Rise Vision. “That’s why we’ve developed this feature, which allows schools to quickly and easily disseminate emergency alerts to their students and staff. It’s a simple, yet powerful tool that can help keep schools safe.”
