The company's new Interactive Short Throw Projector Mount can be used to provide professionals in a working environment with a solution that updates their existing presentation systems or newly specified audio/video systems.

Audio Technica's ES963 three-element, multi-directional boundary microphone provides electronics professionals with an economical and efficient multi-purpose microphone product that employs three cardioid condenser elements that are housed in a 120-degree angle within the unit's housing to pick up sounds in a full 360-degree surrounding area.
