Samsung Electronics Singapore has announced the availability of its Samsung Flip WM55H which aims to promote collaborative digital engagement by facilitating meetings.
An upgrade on both standard paper flip charts and analogue boards, the Samsung Flip display expands opportunities to generate ideas while maintaining the familiar feel of traditional writing. However, unlike its predecessors, Samsung Flip allows easy sharing, annotation, movement and even searching, as well as the ability for multiple users to create content at once.
Additionally, the Flip’s portable, wheel-based stand transforms any location into a huddle room, meaning added flexibility to businesses with limited conference space. Finally, the Flip display’s interface was specifically designed to be user-friendly and allow for timely, uninterrupted conversation.
Gan Ta Loong, general manager, enterprise business at Samsung Electronics Singapore, said: “Samsung is transforming how meetings are conducted with the Samsung Flip. Traditional meeting tools make it easy for participants to feel disengaged and for vital ideas and discoveries to become lost. Today’s workers require more powerful and flexible technologies, and we truly believe that our new Samsung Flip display offers endless possibilities for driving impactful collaboration to help businesses work better, smarter and faster.”
Productive and interactive collaboration
Through simultaneous multi-user engagement, the Samsung Flip ensures that all voices and ideas are heard during a given meeting. Up to four different participants can introduce content or annotate directly on screen at the same time using either their fingers or a dual-sided pen. In doing so, each user can customise his or her own writing style, size and colour, with each notation made clear and visible by viewer-friendly UHD resolution.
For added interactivity, the Samsung Flip display also offers extensive device compatibility through both wireless connectivity and USB, PC and mobile ports. An integrated screen-sharing functionality makes Flip content available on connected PCs, smartphones and tablets without interruption or reduced visual quality. Likewise, users also can import personally-stored content onto the Flip display’s screen and introduce fresh ideas to the discussion.
Customised and comfortable creativity
The Samsung Flip display delivers unprecedented collaboration efficiency by condensing the multiple tools and processes required for a traditional meeting into a sleek, stylish all-in-one design. Participants do not need a specialized touch pen to interact with the screen, and can erase notes through a quick palm swipe. Flip users also can access up to 20 pages of writing space, with embedded search functionalities available to instantly direct participants to specific content. This continuous, rolling stream avoids the lost time and interruptions that often result as participants have to search through multiple sheets of paper or lines of notes to locate a specific detail.
Each Flip display is customizable and can configure to portrait or landscape orientations to suit unique meeting needs. When coupled with its height-adjustable stand, the Flip also maximizes available writing space at users’ preferred positions. Should a meeting require more centralized, roundtable-style discussion, users can remove and connect the Flip display to a compatible wall mount.
Convenient and secure conclusion
As meetings wrap up, the Samsung Flip display securely stores all content within a central database, eliminating the need for cumbersome recaps or handwritten transcription. An airtight, password-based protection system safeguards meeting details and ensures that only approved users can access the information. Once logged in, meeting facilitators and participants can download and share featured content through email or traditional printing. Users additionally can save meeting notes to a USB drive or other external sources.
Leading digital transformation in hospitality
An early adopter of Samsung’s latest innovation is The Ritz-Carlton, Millenia Singapore - a 608-room luxury hotel with 50,000 square feet of meetings and events space, equipped with state of the art conference facilities. The Ritz-Carlton, Millenia Singapore is the first hotel in Southeast Asia to deploy a pilot fleet of the Samsung Flip display, augmenting their digital offerings in conference facilities and minimizing paper footprint.
Peter Mainguy, general manager of The Ritz-Carlton, Millenia Singapore, commented: “The introduction of the Samsung Flip in our conference facilities will allow discussions to be more dynamic, fun and creative, where participants can illustrate their ideas in writing or through drawing on a digital board. The discussion content can also be digitally saved and exported without any hassle. We are thrilled that this technology will help enhance our meeting experiences, and is a brilliant presentation tool for those looking to wow their guests.”
The Samsung Flip display is now available for purchase through traditional professional B2B display channels.
