Audience Response Systems Reach a New Level Delivering a 'Meeting in a Box'

LONDON, February 23, 2010 - IML, the global leader in interactive event technology, today launches a
new audience participation device, the IML Connector. With a variety of
features not seen in this marketplace before, the device's capabilities go
beyond voting to provide a totally new level of interactive engagement for
delegates at events of all types.

In response to event producer demands, the IML Connector is designed to
reduce the amount of hardware that delegates often require to fully
participate in events. It combines, in a single handheld device: instant
voting with fully configurable menus and choices, plus AV capabilities
including simultaneous interpretation; "push to talk" and queuing
functionality that allows delegates to ask questions without waiting for the
roving microphone; multiple audio channels and a portable PA system to enable
sound reinforcement without the need for external speakers.

Rather than the industry-standard alpha-numeric keypad, the IML Connector
has a QWERTY keyboard and an OLED colour screen for multimedia and high
resolution graphics, enabling longer and more detailed question and answer
sessions. The device even contains an accelerometer to detect tilt and
orientation - so it could be used to capture an actual show of hands.

The IML Connector is specifically designed to cater for any meeting or
event for 10 to 10,000 delegates using a single audience response platform,
either as an 'out-of-the-box' solution that can be managed cost-effectively
and set up almost immediately, or as a fully tailored solution for very
specialist situations. IML will be making the device available to AV
specialists as well as working directly with customers to provide service and
support alongside the system itself.

Richard Taylor, the CEO of IML, said: "Participants and hosts of all
types of events are asking us for more and more interactivity. At the same
time they also want it to be even simpler to set up and use, and the IML
Connector meets the demand of this emerging market."

The IML Connector is being officially unveiled at the Confex Exhibition
at Earls Court in London at stand G313 on 23rd - 25th February.
