Chief To Introduce Interactive Monitor Kit

Grant's Perspective on ... Chief introducing an interactive monitor kit very soon.

We attended the 2012 Chief road-show in Winnipeg yesterday. Chief has expanded their line of AV mounts recently to include interactive kits. Back in September I commented on the projector mount that included an interactive module that would turn any regular projector into an interactive projector.

Below is a close up photo of the interactive module on the projector mount.

This same technology will soon be available as a part of a a display monitor mount kit! You will now be able to turn any commercial monitor (that you can touch the display surface without marking it) into an interactive monitor.

Allison (our friendly, helpful Chief representative) did not have a sample of the yet to be released display mount but she did have an illustration that we can share with you. The module is similar to the projection mount module but it looks to be much smaller. See illustration below.The monitor is mounted to the bracket and the "interactive accessory" (left side of the photo below) is in place just above the monitor glass. The monitor and bracket are then mounted on a wall or stand and it is ready to go!

I remember an Inland AV salesperson commenting when the BrightLink Solo first came out saying "I wonder when we will have an interactive kit for monitors?" He can wonder no more because it will be released in the next month!
