How customizable is the setup for different types of simulation labs within various industries?
Intelligent Video Solutions A/V capture systems offer highly customizable setups for simulation labs in various industries. Our team works closely with clients to tailor solutions to specific needs. Our systems adapt to support any number of rooms and cameras in different sizes and types of simulation environments. We integrate HD cameras, third-party encoders, and mobile recording. And we ensure easy, secure video access and compatibility with clinical equipment.
Are there specific technical requirements or hardware needed to implement the video recording system in an existing simulation lab?
The specific technical requirements or hardware needed to implement the video recording system in an existing simulation lab depend on the scale and complexity of the desired setup. Our system’s inherent flexibility caters to various lab sizes and needs, ensuring a solution tailored to any simulation lab's specific requirements.
Our software is web-based and accessed from any browser. Hardware can be deployed to fit your fit to your exact needs. An on premises server supports multiple cameras and microphones in different rooms. Our video software can be implemented on a physical appliance we provide or on your existing server hardware via a virtual machine. Another option is to deploy from an AWS cloud server for streaming and storage.
Our product line caters to different needs, from stationary to mobile:
- Video Audio Learning Tool (VALT) is a comprehensive video capture platform ideal for healthcare, education, and training environments.
- Mobile Capture and Recording (IVS BEAM) extends the VALT functionality to mobile iOS devices, allowing onsite or offsite recording while maintaining security and asset management.
- ROAM offers VALT’s capabilities in a portable format, including a rolling case or backpack for flexible deployment anywhere. ROAM carts provide mobile audio/video capture on wheeled stands.
What kind of support and training does Intelligent Video Solutions provide to new users of the video recording system?
Intelligent Video Solutions offers dedicated professional support for new system users. We train system administrators and end users in your functioning VALT system for a seamless transition. Ongoing assistance is available as needed to ensure users fully utilize the system's capabilities.
Every customer is assigned a dedicated account manager to provide continued training to every user so that they can optimize learning and skill development. Along with a failure rate of less than 1%, IVS provides full-service support to ensure continuous reliability.
How does the system ensure the privacy and security of the recorded video content, especially in sensitive environments like medical or psychological training sessions?
Our systems are designed to keep the privacy and security of recorded video content through technical safeguards. These safeguards help processes that adhere to and maintain compliance with the Health Information Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) for healthcare clients and Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA) regulations for educational institutions. The system includes technical, physical, and administrative controls, which maintain the integrity and confidentiality of recorded information in sensitive environments.
Could you provide examples or feedback from educational institutions that have effectively integrated this video recording technology into their simulation labs?
Mount Royal University and Wisconsin Lutheran College offer two successful case studies demonstrating how our technology has been implemented successfully in simulation labs:
- Mount Royal University uses a “living classroom” approach for research and education in its nursing simulation lab. This includes VALT for video observation and capture. Read this case study and watch the short video now.
- Wisconsin Lutheran College (WLC) uses the VALT system as part of its nursing simulation center. Students participate in simulations every semester as part of their clinical experiences. Before using VALT faculty were recording simulations on iPads, which was inefficient compared to our easy-to-use technology. Watch this short video to see how this technology enhances the program.
How does the video recording system adapt to different learning objectives within the healthcare education sector?
IVS audio/video capture solutions are highly adaptable for healthcare education and customized to meet diverse learning goals, from clinical training to counseling. Its flexibility supports a variety of educational needs, enhancing student learning.
Our software is tailored to the workflows of each learning environment. This includes indexed information that is relevant to the specific program, ex. student name, class, room, session type, and evaluation fields. These data fields make searching for content efficient and optimize assessment for better feedback.
What are the key benefits of integrating video recording technology into healthcare simulation labs?
Integrating video recording technology into healthcare simulation labs enhances educational outcomes by providing students with realistic, immersive learning environments. It supports skills development through detailed review and feedback on simulations, facilitates self-assessment, and promotes collaborative learning. This approach improves the acquisition of clinical skills and boosts confidence in real-world scenarios, significantly contributing to the quality of healthcare education.
