Collaboratory 

Collaboratory (OSAF Area - 101 Bryan Center)

The Collaboratory is an innovative computer lab designed around the idea of collaborative computing. It features a bevy of multimedia-capable Mac Minis equipped with large format cinema displays. But the real breakthrough in this lab is the inclusion of the TeamSpot software. This software allows you to host a collaborative working session, thus allowing users to share files, ideas, and even control of the integrated drop-down projector.

For more information about the features of the TeamSpot software, check out this TeamSpot Guide.
