VidaBox vPadT Touchscreen Tablet Integrates Control of Multiple Web-Accessible Devices
WESTBURY, NY – January 7th – VidaBox LLC introduces the new vPad™ ultra-mobile tablet,
designed to allow easy integration of multiple web-controllable devices.
“A common problem for AV integrators is providing a single point of control for
their clients to access AV content, multizone audio, home automation, and other
hardware and software systems in the home,” says Steven Cheung, a co-founder of
VidaBox. “Most manufacturers provide a
web interface for their devices as a universal method to access and control
these devices. However, it becomes a
challenge to integrate all of these different interfaces into an easy,
presentable format – and that’s where the vPad™ comes in.”
The vPad™ features a full color, 10.4” SVGA TFT touchscreen with built-in 802.11b/g
wireless support, along with an attractive recharging cradle. Four programmable buttons on the top right corner
of the vPad™ provide quick and convenient access to any web-controllable
device.
“The strength of the vPad™ really shines when integrators take full advantage
of the 1024x768 touchscreen, which provides a great deal of area to display
information. Most touchpanels in this
size range only have a resolution of 800x600, or sometimes even 800x480, which
severely limits control options and makes navigating through most web-based
interfaces a terrible nuisance.”
To further simplify integration, the advanced media center manufacturer offers
design services that allow installers to customize the interface with the
clients’ name, a picture of their residence, and the integrator’s logo, all
seamlessly embedded with one-touch access for a truly customized solution. Every vPad™ is preconfigured and ready to go
“out-of-the-box” when it is ordered with a VidaBox system.
“By providing both hardware & custom software for controlling
web-accessible devices,” continues Cheung, “the vPad™ is an answer for
installers looking for a truly complete solution – not just a piece of the
integration puzzle.”
