According to the official point, it is mainly designed for individual users, that is, it is mainly used for remote video conferencing at home or in a personal office. According to official information, the DTEN series uses Samsung A-grade and LG glass; in terms of hardware, the DTEN ON and DTEN ME series use DTEN OS, while DTEN D7 is DTEN D7 OS. It can be seen that DTEN D7 has a different OS system. Two series are new. In addition, the intelligent system of the DTEN interactive touch screen uses Windows loT instead of the Andriod system.
One of the differences between DTEN and other brands of interactive touch screens is that the three series of products all use the higher-cost PCAP capacitive screen technology. The display made of PCAP capacitive screen technology has no frame, the appearance of the body is smoother, and the body is thinner and lighter. The overall design is lighter than the interactive touch screen made with IR infrared touch technology.
In terms of projection technology, the three series only provide 1 split screen, and most interactive touch screens in the market will provide at least 4 split screens, so the split screen function is weaker than other brands. In terms of touch points, the three series all have 20 touch points, and 10 points are allowed to be written at the same time. Each DTEN interactive touch screen series will come with two monochromatic special stylus (writing color is black), which is convenient for users to write and draw on the screen.
Because the DTEN interactive touch screen is designed for video conferencing, the body has built-in high-quality lenses, microphones and speakers, unlike other brands that need to purchase and install additional equipment to conduct video conferencing.
In addition, as an interactive touch screen specially designed for video conferencing, DTEN is one of the certified system suppliers of ZOOM software. The three series of DTEN D7, DTEN ON and DTEN ME have been installed with ZOOM software at the factory. It can be used after connecting to the Internet, saving the process of installing software by yourself.
Since DTEN’s target customer base is mainly from the business community, the requirements for information security are relatively high. To ensure information confidentiality and user privacy, DTEN’s information security specifications are significantly higher than other brands in the market. First, DTEN products have built-in camera lenses, radio microphones and speakers when they leave the factory, which can prevent users from accidentally purchasing related hardware with security vulnerabilities; second, DTEN products have been installed for users with video Conference software ZOOM, this can also avoid the risk of users when downloading programs. Therefore, for users with higher privacy and information security requirements, the price of DTEN is relatively high, but it can be said to be a good value for money.
The DTEN product is an “All-in-One Video Conference System”, which emphasizes multiple functions and simple operation. Whether it is DTEN D7, DTEN ON or DTEN ME series, it has already integrated a video conferencing system, an electronic whiteboard, and a general document file access function. Whether it is for meetings, work reports or processing paper files, it can be “one machine” deal with”. In addition, because the product itself has built-in different hardware and software, such as lenses, radio microphones, etc., users only need to connect the power supply and the network after unpacking, and they can use it immediately. Both installation and operation are simpler than other similar product brands.
The two series of DTEN D7 and DTEN ON are mainly used in meeting rooms, and the screens are available in 55 inches and 75 inches. Both series of display screens support 4K resolution, built-in 4K wide-angle video lens, and can automatically track people or background; in addition, built-in 16 microphones, a wide range of 18 meters, with echo cancellation and background noise functions. The newer model DTEN D7 especially upgraded the speaker system, using dual-channel stereo speakers, which is better than DTEN ON, which uses mono-stereo speakers. In addition, DTEN D7 and DTEN ON both support single device screen projection, and can be plugged into a Windows OPS computer.
Compared with the DTEN ME series, which are mainly used for personal office or study, the display has only a 27-inch display. It is designed for use in a small environment. Therefore, the hardware level is lower than the DTEN D7 and DTEN ON series. DTEN ME has built-in three wide-angle lenses, a 1080P lens, and 8 microphones. The receiving distance is about 5 meters. It also has the function of eliminating echo and background noise. Although DTEN ME can be used as the user’s second screen, it cannot be plugged into a Windows OPS computer.
However, users should pay attention to that, in order to protect product information security and user privacy, DTEN does not allow users to install other software by themselves. Therefore, the download and use of the software are very restricted. For the need to install different working software on the interactive touch screen Relatively inconvenient for users.
