Sony and the University of Lima held the sixth edition of the only summit in Latin America dedicated to the education sector: Education Summit 2024. This year the focus of the summit is to promote education with Artificial Intelligence.

For two intense days, Sony, together with its strategic partners and the host university, exchanged information on the latest technological trends and digital solutions for education.

"We are very pleased to bring together decision-makers in the education sector in Latin America. Recent global events demand the best technological solutions to better connect with students and elevate their learning experience," said Claudius Bezerra, who currently serves as Marketing Manager for Sony Professional Latin America.

The program highlighted keynote speeches, technology demonstrations, networking spaces, case study presentations and workshops with the participation of academics and representatives of prestigious universities from countries such as Colombia, Ecuador, Guatemala and Mexico.

Technology and education are two concepts that are no longer separate. As such, Sony has adapted to emerging needs that meet both teachers and students. Among the technological offer that Sony exhibits during the Education Summit 2024, the following solutions stand out:

• The new BRC-AM7 and SRG-A40 pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) cameras perfect for auditoriums. Equipped with artificial intelligence for advanced image recognition, it facilitates automatic, accurate and natural tracking of moving objects and people such as lecturers and teachers. These cameras analyze and detect the position of a presenter, guaranteeing naturalness without the need for a manual operator.
• Bravia Pro professional monitors will complement educational venues with their reliability, quality and high level of reliability. The BZ53L, BZ40L, BZ30L and EZ20L models cover everything from standard to medium and high needs and their sizes range from 43 to 98 inches to meet all demands. These monitors work 24 hours a day and are very easy to set up and customize with default settings.
• As flagship products of Sony's professional division, there are the ILME-FX30, ILME-FX3, ILME-FX6 and Burano Cinema Line cameras. The latter camera is in high demand and popular for its high capacity to record from commercial productions, to documentaries and feature films, even with its light and compact structure. A key aspect of the Burano camera is that it is the world's first PL-mount digital cinema camera to include an internal image stabilization system.
• For the education sector, another of Sony's strengths is its cloud solutions such as Ci Media Cloud, the collaboration and media management service that optimizes production workflows and strengthens collaboration in editing. The Edge Analytics – REA – C1000 solution is also perfect for institutes that hold conferences and congresses because it makes it possible to create impactful videos for presentations in less time. This solution is based on artificial intelligence and significantly improves the quality of communication because it allows the presenter to provide content and captivate their audience in unprecedented ways.

Among the universities participating in the summit were the Pontificia Universidad Católica del Ecuador (Ecuador), the Tecnológico de Monterrey (Mexico), the Universidad del Valle de México; the Universidad Iberoamericana (Mexico); the Pan-American University (Guatemala); ITESO, Jesuit University of Guadalajara (Mexico); the Universidad de los Andes (Colombia) and the Pontificia Universidad Javeriana, Bogotá and Cali (Colombia).
