With the introduction of Front Row, a new layout experience for Microsoft Teams Rooms, is bringing new life to the 21:9 screen format. The Front Row layout features the video gallery displayed horizontally below the main content, allowing for a more natural eye level experience for attendees. While it can work with 16:9 monitors, 21:9 gives users the full Front Row experience, says the Spiceland, Ind.-based Draper, Inc., manufacturers of tailored solutions for the audiovisual industry.
To meet this growing demand, Draper has announced several new standard screen sizes with a 21:9 aspect ratio. They are available on the company’s series of projection screens. Some of these include Acumen V, Acumen V XL, Access V, Access XL V, Ultimate Access V, Ultimate Access XL V, Premier, and Premier XL electric screens. They have also been added to the Profile Plus framed screen.
“21:9 has exciting potential beyond a desktop setup, allowing more immersive experiences in much larger sizes,” says Steve Cook, consultant relations manager for Draper. “Projection is an affordable way to make a larger image in Microsoft Teams Rooms and other applications. 4K-UHD projectors provide the best viewing experience with 21:9 screens. Their vertical resolution of 2160 is higher than HD 1080p, or WUXGA projectors.”
Draper can manufacture any size and format of electric or fixed frame screen. While the company makes every screen to order, popular standard sizes are also available.
