King of collaboration: Samsung Interactive Display unites teams near and far - Samsung Business Insights

If you’ve ever crowded around a co-worker’s laptop, you know that it’s not an ideal way to collaborate — and, in fact, often makes collaboration much harder. This is significant, as research shows about 75% of employees rate teamwork as being very important, and 86% of employees in leadership positions blame the lack of it as the top reason for workplace failures. As such, it makes sense for businesses dependent on collaboration to embrace a tool that offers a vast, visual and adaptive canvas for working meetings: an interactive board for the office.

Samsung is once again changing how collaboration takes place everywhere from the boardroom to the classroom with the Interactive Display. Available in 65- and 75-inch models, the Samsung Interactive Display can be wall-mounted to become a meeting room’s focal point. More importantly, it enables successful collaboration.

Some of that is due to the dynamic presentation of material. Ninety percent of the information transmitted to the brain is visual, and people are most wired to retain and absorb visual data. Thus, a big display for showing and sharing can help an organization get the most out of its team members. Its interconnectivity also makes this equally true for those in the room — and those working remotely.

The intent behind collaborative technologies reflects heavy research by Samsung on how people meet, learn and share. Three years of interviews and behavioral studies involving approximately 700 people working in different industries revealed how people were keen to use collaboration tools, but they wanted simple, familiar tools that required little or no training.

They also said they wanted to bring and use their own devices in meetings; share and use files on larger screens; and capture, distribute and archive the outcomes and recaps from productive sessions.

The Samsung Interactive Display provides the technology to accomplish these goals, thanks to the large-scale display canvas that enables idea sharing, document reviewing and project presentations to large teams. That means there’s no need to huddle around a monitor when a project’s work fills much of the meeting room’s wall.

The Samsung Interactive Display carries forward all the great, intuitive features of other Samsung interactive whiteboards and adds some new capabilities. Here are the highlights:

Not every meeting needs an interactive session or digital presentation, but that doesn’t mean the Samsung Interactive Display sits idle. Its screensaver mode has a library of templates that operators can use to turn the screen into a digital sign when not in active use. Users can post important company messages, calendars, announcements and news.

That goes for security, too. The device’s underlying technology ensures that all work developed, files produced and items accessed remain secure. IT and operations can easily safeguard sensitive content, lock the display or remove critical content from view. They can also configure the display to delete files regularly.

Samsung Device Management Solution also makes it easy for IT to engage the Interactive Display from afar in many ways, be it to power the display on and off, change pin codes, lock the network or USB port or adjust proxy server settings. They can also update firmware over the wide area network without the time loss and costs of on-site updates and servicing.

Collaboration is key for many businesses, and the Samsung Interactive Display is a powerhouse tool for generating ideas, sharing insights and reviewing plans.
