Promethean, a global tech company, has partnered with Google to develop a new Chromebox OPS compute device that pairs with Promethean's interactive flat panel displays. The device provides a ChromeOS experience without cables or extra steps, offering a straightforward and intuitive experience for users. It fits seamlessly into Promethean's ActivPanel, extending the life of hardware purchases.

Promethean, a leading global tech company and subsidiary of Mynd.ai, Inc. (NYSE American: MYND), has partnered with Google to develop and launch a new Chromebox OPS compute device. This device seamlessly integrates with Promethean's interactive flat panel displays (IFPDs), offering a ChromeOS experience without the need for cables or extra steps.

The Chromebox OPS is designed to fit right into Promethean's ActivPanel, providing a straightforward and intuitive user experience. This integration extends the life of hardware purchases, as the compute device can be upgraded or replaced as technology evolves without the need to update the panel [1].

The device offers a supported and certified ChromeOS experience, allowing users to install ChromeOS and Promethean ActivSuite™ apps on the ChromeOS shelf for instant access to tools like Explain Everything web-based whiteboard, Spinner, Timer, Annotate, and Screen Share Receiver. IT administrators can manage these features via the Google Admin console, ensuring automatic updates and built-in virus protection [1].

As part of the ongoing partnership, the ChromeOS Experience Center (CEC) is showcasing the Promethean Chromebox OPS with the ActivPanel 10. The CEC, established in 2023 in San Jose, CA, serves as a hub for tech innovation and customer engagement, highlighting ChromeOS and other related technologies. Educators can also see the device in action at booth number 2206 at ISTELive 25 in San Antonio, TX, from June 29 to July 2 [1].

Promethean's partnership with Google aims to create a seamless ChromeOS solution, continuing their journey of developing products that are easy to use and simple to maintain. With over 25 years of experience in designing and manufacturing learning and collaboration technologies, Promethean is a proven partner for digital transformation. The Promethean Chromebox OPS helps schools and higher education institutions respond to the top challenges that educators face, ensuring teachers and students can interact with content quickly and easily [1].
