Technology
Overview
Located in Brisbane, the Queensland University of Technology (QUT) has
developed into one of Australia’s leading universities. With over 45,000
enrolled students, an annual budget of more than AU$800 million,
and a practical perspective to theoretical education, the institution has
positioned itself to answer the objectives of tomorrow’s educational
requirements. As part of a five-year institutional blueprint to transform
the university’s facilities into a state-of-the-art campus, QUT aspired to
enhance its lecture theaters, create more collaborative learning spaces,
and strengthen its online resources — turning the institution into a real-
world, technology-enabled university. Within campus classrooms, this
meant creating connected environments where lecturers could move
freely while providing the opportunity to easily record instructors’ talks
with superior-sounding audio results.
Challenge
At the end of the 2013 school year, the university was looking to roll out
an audio solution that would allow instructors to capture their lectures
without adding additional training, cumbersome A/V components, or
comprehension difficulties from users due to poor audio quality. Since
the project covered 140 classrooms, scalability was another important
concern. The solution had to be resistant to background noise, channel
interference, and noise from the university’s crowded RF spectrum to
meet the campus’ performance standards. To keep classes running on
time, the system would need to be extremely easy to set up and use, and
provide long operation times for uninterrupted lecture sessions.
