Promethean, a leading global tech company owned by Mynd.ai, Inc. (NYSE American: MYND), has partnered with Google to develop and launch a new Chromebox OPS compute device that pairs seamlessly with Promethean's interactive flat panel displays (IFPDs). The Promethean Chromebox OPS turns large interactive touchscreens into ChromeOS devices, offering a supported and certified ChromeOS experience without requiring educators to navigate cables or take extra steps when accessing files and content.

The device is designed to be simple to install, fitting directly into Promethean's ActivPanel, providing a more straightforward and intuitive experience for ChromeOS users. This partnership allows customers to upgrade or replace the compute device as technology evolves without needing to update the panel, making it a highly adaptable investment for schools and districts.

The Chromebox OPS device can be managed by IT administrators through Google's Admin console, with automatic updates and built-in virus protection. It supports the installation of Promethean's ActivSuite™ apps, including Explain Everything, Spinner, Timer, Annotate, and Screen Share Receiver, providing educators with a range of tools for teaching and collaboration.

Promethean and Google are showcasing the Promethean Chromebox OPS with the ActivPanel 10 at the ChromeOS Experience Center (CEC) in San Jose, CA, and at ISTELive 25 in San Antonio, TX. The CEC, established in 2023, is a hub for tech innovation and customer engagement, highlighting ChromeOS and other related technologies.
