The Califone Installed Infrared Audio System delivers all of the benefits of sound field amplification (without any interference between classrooms) for greater coverage & reception with the added benefits of two non-powered “array” speakers. Hands-free transmitter allows for several presentation styles, whichever is more comfortable for the wearer. The transmitter can be worn on a belt or around the neck with the included holder. This proven technology offers several advantages for teachers and students:
Two wireless microphones and frequencies enable both the student and teacher to talk at the same time.
Targets the sound pattern directly at the audience, not randomly bouncing the sound off walls like canned ceiling speakers
Evenly distributes volume so level is the same at front/rear
Twice the sensors in the receiver expands coverage area
The Califone Installed Infrared Audio System will:
Improve academic achievement
Increase on-task behavior
Increase attention to verbal instruction
Improve comprehension for English Language Learners
“Through our research, we discovered that many schools who integrated this technology saw increases in their state assessments. We reviewed many systems, but ultimately chose the Infrared Audio System from Califone as it brought the most return on our investment.” Christie Valenzuela Title 1 Coordinator J.D. Lever Elementary School Aiken, South Carolina
