My Project

The goal of this project is to be able to hear school-related events in our auditorium successfully and for students to hear us during lunchtime in the cafeteria.

Lately, we have been experiencing static with our older Bluetooth speaker, and the microphones have become quite temperamental.

Sometimes, you can hear what is being said, and other times, you may be lucky to catch every other word.

The new Bluetooth should be able to get the job done for our school community. As opposed to the older one, this one has a rechargeable battery, a safer place to store your cell phone as opposed to connecting it and placing it on the floor, and it comes on wheels, making it easy to transport throughout the building. I can recall when we held our school play last year and experienced a few tech glitches. With this new speaker, some of those problems can now be avoided.
