Option Technology Interactive
We understand that interactive audience response systems are simply a tool to help you achieve a better outcome from your meetings, training sessions and events. Our approach focuses on results, not keypads and software.
Organizations and individuals responsible for conducting large-scale meetings and events typically do not have the time required to properly prepare an interactive experience. We utilize specially trained on-site consultants who will work with you to make certain your goals are realized. For smaller meetings and individuals experienced with interactive integration we also offer equipment-only rentals that allow you to conduct your own event.
Learn What They Know...
Use Audience Response Systems to Engage Your Group
Make certain your meeting participants are tuned in and understand your content.
Long lectures don't engage your audience and paper surveys can't provide real-time information. OptionPower delivers superior performance in speed of preparation, ease of use and range of reporting abilities. Our modular approach allows you to pay for only the features you need, and you can always reconfigure your system if your needs change.
Interactive meetings using audience response systems are proven to boost attentiveness and increase retention, and many of the world's largest companies trust OptionPower to stimulate thought, generate interaction, simplify group input and build trust. Let us show you how we can do the same for your next event.

An audience response system (ARS), or personal response system (PRS), allows large groups of people to vote on a topic or answer a question. Each person has a device with which selections can be made. Each remote communicates with a computer via receivers located around the room or via a single receiver connected to the presenter's computer using a USB connector. After a set time - or after all participants have answered - the system ends the polling for that particular question and tabulates the results. Typically, the results are instantly made available to the participants via a bar graph displayed on the projector.
In situations where tracking is required, the serial number of each remote control or the student's identity number is entered beforehand in the control computer's database. In this way the answer of each individual can later be identified.
