Mobile hybrid technology for seminars, lectures and artistic teaching

Mobile hybrid sets can be rented at the university for courses, lectures, workshops, trial lessons, inter-university cooperation events and international projects. Joint hybrid events with on-site participants and external participants can be held quickly and easily via the university's video conferencing system.

The hybrid systems can also be used in a variety of ways in artistic teaching, e.g. for rehearsal classes with prospective students from abroad, video recordings and video analyses. For optimal sound quality, additional microphones or instruments such as a midi keyboard can be connected via the audio interface.

Reservation and terms of use

Reservations can only be made using this loan form (German, PDF), which must be completed and returned to medientechnik(at)hfm-weimar.de at least seven working days before the desired date of use.

All members of the university (students in cooperation with a lecturer) are entitled to use the library. Use is only permitted on the university's premises.

In order to be able to use the system independently, students must have completed a technical training course. If this is not the case, additional technical support for the event should be requested at least 14 days in advance.

The loan is then dependent on the free capacities of the support for media technology. Technical training and workshops on moderating hybrid events, etc. are offered regularly and on request.
