Azden IR Audio System
Infrared wireless microphone systems are the best solution for classrooms. In today's RF saturated world a regular (VHF or UHF) microphone system risks interference from a variety of other devices and sources. Cell phones, radios, TV, PA systems, police and emergency service systems, etc., can all interfere with VHF and UHF, but not with IR. Furthermore, infrared is perfect for classroom audio, since, unlike the other systems, IR is short-range, cannot penetrate walls, and is line-of-sight. This means that a school can have as many classrooms as desired with individual audio systems, without fear of interference. Since the Azden system is dual-channel, the teacher can have one microphone and a second person can also have a microphone. In addition, since each classroom system is on the same pair of channels, teachers can go from room to room without having to switch microphones. Each system will include an IR receiver/amplifier with a built-in sensor array, a small-lightweight chest-worn microphone/transmitter, a pass-around handheld microphone/transmitter, an external ceiling-mounted sensor, and 4 high-quality in-ceiling speakers or 4 compact wall-mounted speakers. The system does not include installation, and wiring for the speakers and sensor

Special Instructions

Our elementary school would like to request a variety of educational technologies that would be used to supplement our already innovative and effective teaching practices in the science areas.  Students today are very different than students 20 years ago.

Our goal is to install an integrated SMART board system consisting of a SMART board loaded with the entire state science curriculum, a new computer, a document camera, and an audio system with a wireless microphone in each classroom.  We also have a need for a digital microscope that will connect into the SMART board system allowing the entire class to make microscopic observations in real time.
