T-Shaped Digital Podium For Classrooms
Description
Technical Parameters
The HDFocus T-Shaped Digital Podium combines a 21.5-inch Full HD touchscreen, a configurable built-in computer, wireless presentation tools, and classroom AV connections in a single fixed-height workstation. It is designed for classrooms, training rooms, and presentation spaces used daily that require straightforward operation without the added complexity of motorized height adjustment.
Teachers can use the built-in computer or connect a guest laptop and switch between the two sources once the external HDMI input and source-switching specifications have been confirmed. The selected content can be displayed on a larger screen, while audio connections can be managed through the smart podium. A dedicated touchscreen timer helps presenters keep lessons and speeches on schedule without covering the main presentation screen.
Is This T-Shaped Digital Podium Right for Your Project?
Use this quick project evaluation before reviewing the full details.
Recommended For:
● Standard K-12 and university classrooms for daily teaching
● Vocational training rooms and regular teaching spaces with fixed instructors
● Campus multimedia standardization and multi-room upgrade projects
● Government-led education procurement and tender projects
● Large-scale bulk deployments for education AV integration projects
Consider Another Model If
● Multiple presenters of different heights share one podium → Choose the Motorized Height-Adjustable Digital Podium (DP32)
● High-end auditoriums, ceremonies, and formal venue aesthetics are top priorities → Choose the Arc-Shaped Digital Podium (DP42)
● You need built-in cabinet storage for on-site equipment → Choose the Cabinet-Style Digital Podium (DP12)
Why Choose an Arc-Shaped Digital Podium?
Many campus renovation and education tender projects require stable multimedia presentation hardware for dozens or hundreds of standard classrooms. Project owners need reliable performance, easy daily operation, and controlled total costs rather than premium features designed primarily for ceremonial venues.
Our DP22 T-shaped podium is purpose-built as the preferred solution for standardized classroom deployment.
Designed for Standard Classroom Deployment
Optimized for large-scale rollout across multiple classrooms, its consistent configuration simplifies project bidding, on-site installation, and long-term asset management for educational institutions and AV contractors.
Stable T-Shaped Structure for Daily Use
The robust T-shaped frame withstands frequent daily classroom use. It reduces the long-term maintenance workload for school administrators and lowers after-sales support costs for system integrators.
Essential Teaching Functions Without Unnecessary Complexity
The podium retains all core multimedia teaching capabilities, including touch operation, timing functions, and comprehensive AV connectivity. It avoids the added cost of premium features, helping keep procurement budgets under control for standard teaching environments.
Classroom-Oriented AV Integration
It connects seamlessly with classroom displays, PA systems, and peripheral teaching devices, supporting common daily teaching requirements without unnecessary setup steps.
Core Benefits
Built exclusively for stable, long-term, and high-frequency daily use, the HDFocus T-shaped digital podium delivers distinct advantages that overcome the limitations of standard multimedia lecterns:
An All-in-One Workstation for Teaching and Presentations
Run courseware on the internal PC, connect a guest laptop, and pass video content to the room's main display-all from a single, organized workstation. This eliminates repetitive cable swapping and keeps primary presentation controls within the speaker's reach.
External Laptop Connection and HDMI Source Switching
Presenters can quickly connect an external laptop and press the source-switching button to toggle between the internal PC and the external HDMI input.
Professional-Grade AV Compatibility
Equipped with a 48 V adjustable gooseneck microphone (supporting optional Shure upgrades) and external PA audio outputs. Dual HDMI inputs and outputs enable seamless signal switching with third-party displays, making it ideal for professional AV setups in conference and classroom environments.
Flexible Hardware Configuration
Select from multiple Windows processor options (Intel Core i3, i5, or i7 4th Gen) alongside expandable RAM and SSD storage to match specific project budgets and performance requirements.
Optional High-Capacity Battery System
An optional rechargeable lithium battery provides 4 or 8 hours of standalone operation on a full charge-perfect for mobile presentations or venues without constant power access.
Durable T-Shaped Mechanical Frame
The optimized T-shaped load-bearing structure provides superior stability and weight resistance, ensuring long-term reliability for high-frequency use in schools and training facilities.
Practical Details for Daily Use

21.5-Inch Full HD Touch Control
The 21.5-inch BOE display delivers Full HD 1920 × 1080 resolution and supports 10-point capacitive touch. Presenters and educators can easily navigate content, run software applications, and annotate directly on screen using a finger or compatible stylus.

4.3-Inch Dedicated Touchscreen Timer
The standalone 4.3-inch capacitive touchscreen timer provides countdown alerts and timing controls without occupying space on the primary presentation display. It is ideal for timing lectures, training sessions, speeches, and interactive activities.

48 V Gooseneck Microphone and PA Audio Integration
The built-in 48 V condenser gooseneck microphone features local volume control for clear voice capture. Audio can be routed through a line-level output to an external venue PA system, while built-in 2 × 5 W stereo speakers provide local audio monitoring.

Stylus and Storage Slot
An included touch stylus enables precise on-screen control, while the integrated pen slot ensures it stays within easy reach when not in use.

Accessory Tray
A convenient storage tray on the lower-right side of the desktop provides dedicated space for smartphones, USB drives, adapters, and other small presentation accessories.

Lockable Swivel Casters
Smooth-rolling swivel casters allow for effortless repositioning around the venue. Once placed, the casters lock securely to keep the podium stable during presentations.
Recommended Applications
Standard Classrooms
Use the classroom digital podium as a centralized teaching workstation for running courseware, annotating content, sending content to an external display, controlling the microphone, and sharing content wirelessly.
Training Rooms
Present training materials from the built-in computer or a connected laptop, keep sessions on schedule, and connect to the room's display and audio system.
Small and Medium-Sized Presentation Rooms
Use the HDMI and PA connections in rooms that require an organized presentation station but do not need motorized height adjustment or a large audience-facing podium display.
Multi-Room Standardization Projects
Configure the same display, computer, port layout, and software environment across multiple rooms to simplify user training, installation planning, and spare-parts management.




From Power-On to Presentation
Four-Step Workflow
1. Start the interactive podium and select the built-in computer or connected HDMI source.
2. Open the lesson, document or presentation on the 21.5-inch touch display.
3. Send the content to an interactive flat panel, projector or other compatible room display.
4. Use the microphone, audio output, annotation tools and independent time
