Interactive Flat Panel Vrs Projector

Many times the questions are asked why we chose the IFP.  The IFP is a commercial device designed to run in a classroom for 7 to 10 years.  The manufacturer warranty is 7 years and there are no long term operating costs associated with this device such as bulbs/lamps for projectors that can run in to the hundreds per device.  A projector would have had to been installed by licensed installers using prevailing wage (~120$ an hour) and we would have to not only install them in the portables, but un install them when we are complete incurring additional charges then re install them into the rehabilitated facilities, again at prevailing wage.  The IFPs are installed on mobile carts making the transition from room to room seamless, easy and efficient.  The cost of the IFPs is significantly less over the projected 7 to 10 years of the device vrs the cost of projectors.  The decision was made to equip the sites with IFPs across the board, further reducing the support costs of the AV equipment as there is now a set classroom standard hardware list.
