AVer at InfoComm 2025: Cameras That Actually Understand the Classroom
Some companies build products that can work in higher ed. AVer builds products for higher ed. That was the clear takeaway from their presence at InfoComm 2025 — especially if you stopped by booth #3181, where Dalen Reifsteck was walking people through AVer’s latest line of intelligent, classroom-first cameras.
We caught up with Dalen on the show floor — literally. He sat down with us at the HETMA booth, surrounded by buzz and background noise, and made it immediately clear that AVer’s core focus is higher education.
According to him, AVer’s product strategy centers around offering the right camera for every classroom configuration. Higher education isn’t just a market for AVer — it’s their primary focus.
That kind of clarity is rare — and welcome.
Cameras With Brains, Built for Higher Ed
AVer has always had a strong reputation in the PTZ space, but this year they came to InfoComm with a sharper focus: intelligent cameras that support inclusive learning, hybrid delivery, and simplified support.
Here’s a quick rundown of what they showcased:
🎥 TR615 Broadcast Camera
This one’s built for high-quality lecture capture and hybrid events. It’s AVer’s first broadcast-style PTZ, and it supports 4K video, SRT streaming, and multiple video outputs. It’s got all the bells and whistles you’d expect — but what makes it stand out is how easy it is to deploy in a campus environment.
If your AV strategy includes centralized lecture capture, overflow viewing, or streaming commencement ceremonies, the TR615 was made for you.
🧠 DL30 AI Auto Tracking Camera
This is the one that always gets people talking — a tracking camera that doesn’t need any sensors or wearables. It uses facial recognition and motion algorithms to follow instructors naturally around the room.
For classrooms without dedicated AV techs or faculty who don’t want to learn another button panel, this camera just works. It helps capture content in a way that feels natural, with minimal configuration and no extra gear for instructors to wear.
🔄 MT300(N) All-in-One
AVer also showed off their compact, integrated classroom solution — camera, mic, and speaker all built into one device. This is especially appealing for small classrooms, conference rooms, and hybrid learning environments where simplicity and cost-efficiency matter just as much as quality.
Designed for Reality, Not Showrooms
There’s something really refreshing about how Dalen described AVer’s approach. It isn’t about chasing every possible use case — it’s about intentionally designing for the needs of higher education.
That focus shows up clearly in the product line, which covers use cases from large lecture halls to small seminar rooms — all with consistent management tools and simple configuration. And it’s not just about capturing a video feed. It’s about doing it in a way that doesn’t overburden faculty or IT staff.
Anyone who’s ever had to walk a department through installing and managing tracking cameras — especially when those cameras require calibration or instructor-worn beacons — knows how valuable it is to have a fully self-contained system like the DL30.
Built to Support Equity in Learning
One of the subtler but more important themes that came through in AVer’s messaging this year is the role of video in inclusive education.
In AVer’s official InfoComm materials, they highlighted their aim to foster inclusive learning environments tailored specifically for higher education.
That’s not marketing fluff — it’s something a lot of institutions are grappling with head-on. Students expect a level of access and flexibility that only video can provide. And while some schools are still navigating the balance between in-person and remote instruction, the need for reliable, high-quality video capture in every classroom is here to stay.
By designing products that work in low-touch environments — where there might not be an AV tech nearby — AVer is helping to make that kind of equity scalable.
Whether you’re building out a full HyFlex model or just trying to make sure students can re-watch lectures asynchronously, this is a company that understands the stakes.
What About Support?
One of the ongoing concerns with camera tech in higher ed is long-term support. What happens after install? How easy is it to update firmware, troubleshoot remotely, or get someone on the line when something breaks?
AVer seems to have thought that through too.
From unified management software to hands-on training, they offer tools that help tech managers stay in control without being buried in a sea of one-off support requests.
Dalen emphasized that AVer views higher ed not just as a customer base, but as a long-term relationship. Their higher ed-focused business development efforts reflect that — and the fact that they’ve staffed the team with people who’ve worked inside education helps a lot.
This isn’t just about selling a camera. It’s about helping institutions create consistent, inclusive experiences that scale.
Missed the Booth? Here’s What You Should Know
If you didn’t make it to booth #3181 at InfoComm, you didn’t miss out entirely — the highlights are all available online, and AVer’s higher ed landing page is packed with product specs, use case breakdowns, and contact info for people who actually want to talk shop.
But the real takeaway from their InfoComm presence is this: AVer is showing up with purpose. Not just to be at the show, but to have meaningful conversations with campus AV and IT leaders about what’s working — and what still needs to get better.
They’re not trying to reinvent the classroom. They’re trying to make it smarter, more inclusive, and easier to support — without adding complexity for your already-overloaded teams.
