AVERMEDIA® DOCUMENT CAMERAS POPULARITY INCREASES IN NEW YORK STATE WITH RECENT CHENANGO FORKS SD PURCHASE
Chenango Forks Central Schools Purchase AVerMedia AVerVision280 Document Cameras

MILPITAS, CA - (August 29, 2005) – AVerMedia® Technologies, Inc., the leading provider of digital multimedia and presentation technology announced today a steady increase in Document Camera sales in New York State.

The latest AVerMedia bid win in New York came from Chenango Forks Central Schools with the purchase of AVerVision280 document cameras, acquired through Joel Ryan, Regional Sales Manager for Troxell Communications. Located in Upstate, NY, Chenango Forks School District is comprised of four locations with a total of 2200 students. This recent purchase is reflective of Chenango Fork’s continuance of increasing technology in their classrooms. With a goal of providing a projector, document camera, DVD player and computer in every classroom, they have already achieved 90% completion in their high school and middle school.

“Chenango Forks chose the AVerVision280 document cameras based on their portability, price and quality of color,” says Bill Sica, Director of Computer Services for Chenango Forks Central Schools. “Our teachers previously complained that their old overhead projectors caused too much glare. However, between the provided anti-glare sheets and LED lights on the AVerVision280, the projected image has proved to be sharp and clear making it an instant hit with the teaching staff.”

“The recent purchase from Chenango has further increased our exposure and popularity in the New York State area,” says Daniel Merryman, Channel Development Manager for AVerMedia Technologies. “As the New York State educational system continues to increase its focus on the latest educational technologies, AVerMedia will be aggressive in providing high-quality, yet easy to use and affordable presentation solutions.”

The AVerMedia AVerVision280 is a portable and lightweight document camera featuring a built-in 850K pixel color CCD image sensor, 1024 x 768 VGA output resolution, and 8X digital zoom and pan. Other functions include an LED light module, negative-to-positive conversion, night view, freeze and reverse capabilities.
