www.managedITmag.co.uk 11 INNOVATIONS New generation card printer HID has launched a faster, more precise, reliable and secure ID card printer based on the company’s HDP5000 printer series and proven retransfer technology. HID’s seventh generation retransfer technology offers better print quality, brightness and durability than direct to card printers by printing onto a laminate film which, as part of a two-stage printing process, is then bonded to the card. The HID FARGO HDP5000e is suitable for applications in universities, mediumto-large businesses, healthcare facilities and government agencies, from producing vibrant photo ID cards to multi-functional, high-security ID badges. www.hidglobal.com All needs catered for Kramer offers a complete range of Microsoft Teams Rooms (MTRs) for huddle rooms, small meeting rooms, medium-sized meeting rooms and boardrooms, plus all the components necessary for a seamless meeting room experience.

Helvar Senses takes advantage of the existing lighting infrastructure, one of the densest sensor networks already in a building, to enable building operators to monitor air quality, temperature, humidity, noise levels and lighting in one unified system. Helvar says that as well as being simpler to manage and maintain than deploying standalone sensors, this approach enables organisations to adjust environmental conditions in line with need. For example, integrating Helvar Systems with HVAC systems makes it easier to optimise energy use by aligning air quality with occupancy patterns. helvar.com/senses/ Talking on the moon Astronauts on the Artemis III lunar mission, planned for 2026, will be able to capture real-time HD video and communicate with mission controllers on Earth while they roam across the lunar surface thanks to advanced 4G/LTE communications integrated into their spacesuits by Nokia and Axiom Space. Nokia’s Lunar Surface Communications System (LSCS) has two elements – a network-in-a-box that combines the radio, base station and core network elements of a terrestrial cellular network into one unit and device modules integrated into spacesuits. Both the network and device modules have been engineered to withstand extreme environmental conditions on the lunar surface and the dynamic stress of spaceflight. www.axiomspace.com; www.nokia.com Laser sharp images Sharp NEC Display Solutions Europe is launching the first LCD laser installation projector under the Sharp brand. Combining very high brightness (20KLm) with a compact, silent and energyefficient design, the Sharp A201U is suitable for corporate auditoriums, universities, museums and immersive projection mapping applications. USPs include the widest LCD projector colour space in the industry (almost DC-P3) and, uniquely among LCD projectors, use of an RB laser light source. In addition to its vivid reds, excellent colour performance and WUXGA resolution, the A201U features an IP5X-rated, sealed, filterless optical engine that protects against even the finest dust particles for long-lasting image brightness. www.sharpnecdisplays.eu
