ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø±¬ÍøÕ¾

Livestream services must be requested by ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø±¬ÍøÕ¾ Staff or Faculty and are available in any space on campus that is within network coverage. ETS will make every effort to provide you with a livestream if you are in need of one however there are cases where other options are better suited, please allow time for collaboration so that we are able to find the best solution for your event. Zoom and Teams rooms are also available for these events.

Please note that we are only able to provide one live event at a time so the sooner that you book your event the higher the likelihood that you will be able to secure a spot.

It should also be noted that any livestream will require a human captioner to be assigned to the livestream for ADA compliance. Captioning is readily available however a cost center will need to be provided to cover the cost of captioning services.

Hybrid services (i.e. Teams / Zoom) are available in any space that does not feature theater seating. We recommend that hybrid services be utilized with a U Shape or Hollow Square table configuration.

Video recording is available on a case by case basis, post production needs may not be available during periods when there are a high volume of ETS requests. If you are in need of video recording please consider a classroom environment with Panopto capabilities as this feature is largely self service.

 Handheld Microphone 

This is our most common microphone option. All of our spaces  offer wireless versions however wired options may be used for outside events. Great for Q&A, freeform lectures and in many cases will be used on a stand at a podium for versatility.  

Wireless Lav Microphone

The wireless lav is composed of two pieces: a bodypack (Pictured) and a thin wire with a microphone on the end. This option is ideal if a presenter is moving around a lot or needs to be hands free. Please consider clothing with this option, the microphone is worn on a lapel, necktie or the collar of a shirt. The bodypack can be placed in a pocket, worn on a waistband or a belt. 

Podium Microphone

This microphone is also known as a Gooseneck however we almost exclusively use them at podiums.The version pictured has a base and is used at podiums without gooseneck mic holders. For informal events your technician may choose to use a Handheld Microphone on a stand.

Catchbox

The Catchbox is a foam cube with a microphone inside. Perfect for interactive sessions this box is thrown around the room allowing participants to deliver remarks and Input while being reinforced by the in room sound system.

XLR Input / XLR Output

XLR is a type of cable used for audio. XLR input is needed when you want to add supplemental audio equipment. XLR output is needed if you want to feed audio from your event to a platform such as zoom or livestream or if you Would like a recording. Only technicians will use these during an event however it may be important to note their availability.  

Soundport

A Soundport is a device that allows you to connect a phone or laptop to professional sound equipment. Each Soundport has a standard headphone cable attached to it and also comes with a USB C adapter for devices without a headphone jack. The Soundport also has a volume knob for additional control.

PA Speaker with Stand

A PA speaker is simply a powered speaker that can be placed in any setting where installed sound is not present. We can connect any audio equipment from our A’la Cart Menu to a PA speaker both indoors or outdoors. Please note that power must be available in order to use these speakers. 

Wireless Speaker

The wireless speaker is a battery powered alternative to our PA Speaker, a stand is also available for this option. This speaker can accommodate one wired handheld microphone or can play media via Bluetooth. This speaker is considerably smaller but can still get quite loud.

Slide Advancer

The Slide Advancer is compatible with all presentation Software and includes a laser pointer. Each slide advancer pairs to the computer with a USB stick and is plug and play.

HDMI IN / HDMI OUT

HDMI is the standard cable for video signals on campus and can be found anywhere that offers a visual medium. More commonly with current laptops an adapter will be required and this is also available. Where HDMI IN is the most needed application, we also offer HDMI OUT in select locations to support secondary displays such as confidence monitors.   

Meeting Owl

The Meeting Owl is a plug and play solution for hybrid meetings. This device features a 360° camera, multi-directional microphones and a speaker to hear digital participants. The Meeting Owl will automatically shift the camera perspective based on who is talking. This device works best in a hollow square or u-shaped table configuration.

Huddly Camera

The Huddly Camera is an AI powered camera for hybrid meetings or presentations. This camera is plug and play and compatible with Zoom and Teams.
