Streaming Studio

We are excited to offer the opportunity for you to utilize the Streaming Studio equiped as a Zoom Room for your courses and/or meetings!  What is a Zoom Room? A Zoom Room is a software based system which integrates with a classroom's equipment.  This gives instructors a way to better coordinate their visual collaboration while utilizing the front ActivPanels,  computer sharing, whiteboarding, and annotation resources.  This provides an integrated experience for your virtual, blended, or face-to-face meetings.  
If you would like to RSVP the Streaming Studio, please contact Teresa Jordan, WH 101,  tmann@latech.edu or 318-257-3712.

Helpful Tips

iPad
Picture
The iPad located on next to the door, can be used to manage your meeting in much the same way as the front panel.  The most often used icons are available on one screen (see above). 
TROUBLESHOOTING
Network/Zoom Room Disconnect
If you receive a message that you cannot connect to the Zoom Room or a "connecting to the internet" message that won't go away, Try "retry/reconnect".  If this does not work, contact someone in the Hub (WH 129) or Tech Help Desk (257-5300). This sometimes requires rebooting the Zoom Room computer which is located in the ceiling.

Orange Screen or "No Signal"
If you walk in to a large orange screen or a black screen with the words "No Signal," you need to change the source being viewed.  To do this, click the physical button on the panel with an icon that looks like a box with an arrow.  This will bring up source options.  Select HDMI 2 by using the arrows and then confirm by clicking the button that says "menu."
​
Share Screen Missing
If the "share screen" icon is missing from your meeting controls, select the three dots.

Stop Screen sharing
To stop screen sharing, look on the bottom left of the screen display for the text "STOP SHARE." Select and you will return to just the voice conference without the computer.

TURN ON ALL EQUIPMENT

  3. Tap the front screen (ActivPanel) on the left to see if it is on.  If it is not, push the middle button. The screen should be blue with Zoom icon options.
  4. If you will be using the computer, check that the podium (HoverCam Pilot) is on.  If it is not, look on the right side for the power button.

Software Resources
HoverCam Pilot
The computer podium in the front of the room is called a HoverCam Pilot. It not only allows you to share the screen on the panel and interact by touch, but it also includes a document cam and other software tools.  To learn more about the HoverCam Pilot, check out the Getting Started with the HoverCam Pilot on the Louisiana Tech Training Portal. You can also access documents and videos on Hovercam's website.
