Basic information
D42 is a small seminar room situated on the fourth floor of Building D.
Small seminar rooms provide a suitable environment especially for smaller seminars based on discussion, interaction and group work. They support mobility and the free boundaries between the teacher’s space and the students’ space.
Chairs and desks are equipped with wheels, so they can be moved easily and quickly, and the lecture room layout can be adapted to different types of teaching.
Projection possibilities
For projecting multimedia content, there is the interactive touch panel available. It allows you to intuitively control the presentation from close to the screen or annotate the projected content. You can use Smart Ink tools as well as Windows native tools.
You can present images and sound from a PC located on the desk and also from your own laptop connected via the HDMI or VGA connector. Connecting cables and electrical sockets are located under the metal cover at the top of the desk.
The lecture room also allows wireless presentation of image and sound from your own Apple device (iPhone, iPad, MacBook) by connecting to Apple TV via AirPlay. You can present an image from your device without being tethered to one place in the room, and you can have your students make presentations as well.
Recording of lectures
In the lecture room, you can use the lecture recording device, which allows you to easily record your lecture. To make a recording, log in to the PC and press the Record button on the control panel – pressing the button again will end the recording.
The recording contains both the image from the camera in the room and the image projected through projector. You can pre-check it using the Stream Preview icon on the PC desktop.
You can find the finished recording in your personal category in the Faculty Media Library, you will also be informed via e-mail about the processing of the recording.
For sufficient sound quality, it is advisable to use a lapel microphone located in the desk. Open the desk cabinet by attaching the chip card to the sensor on the left side of the cabinet. The microphone activates automatically when you pull it out of the charging station, you can switch it off by putting it in the charging station again.
The recording camera and wireless microphones can also be used in video conferencing applications, for example for hybrid teaching purposes. Follow the printed instructions in the room to set up the device correctly in the video conferencing application.
