Screen-casting and collaboration provider Airtame has expanded its partnership with unified communications and digital signage software developer Rise Vision to expand education institutions' ability to display emergency alerts and messaging on Airtame-connected devices across entire campuses, according to a news release.

Campus leaders can now set Rise Vision emergency alerts to override a screen-sharing session on any or all Airtame devices, strengthening safety measures and communications penetration across classrooms and other campus settings, Airtame said.

The partnership — first launched in 2021 allowing education users to cast Rise Vision’s digital signage software on Airtame-connected screens — will boost schools’ security profile by allowing the sharing of emergency information on a large scale to improve response time, the companies said.

With the combined capabilities of Airtame and Rise Vision, institutions can use their connected displays and devices not only for instruction and learning but also to improve communication and emergency alert penetration across facilities, the companies said. Devices that Rise Vision’s software can cast messages to include interactive displays, projectors, and TVs.
