Narrative
FAU Libraries are planning to upgrade and replace outdated televisions in our study rooms. These study spaces are popular and essential resources for our students. In recent years, we’ve made significant upgrades to both hardware and software, including transitioning from AirMedia to the more user-friendly Ditto system for screen mirroring in most rooms. However, we still have a few rooms left to upgrade to Ditto, and some of our TVs have reached their end of life, which we would like to replace to keep our study spaces up-to-date and fully functional.
Hardware Requirements
Replacement Samsung BEC-H Series 50" UHD 4K HDR Commercial Monitor - $420.00 x 4 = $1680.00
Replacement 32” LG LN340C 32" Class HD Commercial TVs - $375.00 x 5 = $1,875.00
TOTAL = $3,555.00 | WHOLE DOLLAR = $3,555.00
Software Requirements
Ditto Software $110 x 15 rooms = $1650.00 a year x 3 years = 4,950.00
TOTAL = $4,950.00 | WHOLE DOLLAR =$4,950.00
Timeline
The hardware & software can be purchased and installed as soon as funds are available. Estimated time to install will be about 6-8 weeks
Sustainability
The hardware & software will have to be maintained and replaced as necessary with Tech Fee funding or library funds.
