Lecture Capture System

Alt text: Panopto logo with green hexagon and white play button.

Using built-in ceiling microphones and cameras, faculty can easily record classroom lectures/presentations and make them available to students for review. Faculty using their laptop or classroom desktop can record their daily classroom presentations (voice and PowerPoint, web links, spreadsheets, etc.) or student presentations. The files are published and accessible to the students for later review through links in Camino. Students can navigate through the individual recording to review specific topics.

A wireless clip-on microphone for voice reinforcement is available in some rooms. Please contact Media Services to request training.

We have a limited amount of wired microphones available upon request for spaces without a built-in voice reinforcement system. If requested, we will place one in the room for all users for the quarter. Please contact Media Services to request a microphone.

Rooms outfitted for classroom capture are:
