Old Dominion University Transforms Campus Learning Spaces with Sony BRAVIA Professional Displays

Old Dominion University (ODU) is investing in Sony BRAVIA professional displays to enhance learning environments and deliver exceptional experiences campus-wide.

The Challenge

• Higher education faces mounting pressure from declining enrollment, rising costs, and growing scrutiny over the value of a degree
• ODU needed to replace aging, failing display technology within tight budget constraints, requiring a reliable and intuitive solution that faculty could use independently without ongoing technical support

The Solution

• ODU deployed over 100 Sony Pro BRAVIA displays and laser projectors for classroom presentations and digital signage across academic buildings, conference rooms, and common areas, all centrally managed campus-wide
• Sony’s versatility, reliability, and low-maintenance hardware made them the trusted choice for ODU’s wide range of campus needs

The Outcome

• Sony BRAVIA professional displays and laser projectors have transformed day-to-day operations at ODU, allowing faculty to walk in and teach without any technical friction
• Centralized management allows ODU to push campus-wide updates or targeted messaging simultaneously, saving significant time and resources

“Reliability is the key. That I don’t have to touch something for years and it still works? That’s a win-win for me.”
