Overview

The Sony PEQA-C10 Active Learning License is a software licence for PEQ-C100 and PEQ-C130 Vision Exchange main units. It supports workgroup lessons: students mirror their devices and share content with other tables under the lecturer's control, while the main unit displays every group table. Sony has discontinued this model. Schools and universities in Qatar that run these main units, or need a replacement, can request a quote.

What this licence adds to Vision Exchange classrooms

The Sony PEQA-C10 Active Learning License is a software licence for the PEQ-C100 and PEQ-C130 Vision Exchange main units. It is built for workgroup lessons, where students sit at group tables, share their own work and stay connected to the lecturer and the main presentation screen. Sony has discontinued this model, so this page is written for organisations that already run these main units, buyers comparing collaboration options, and anyone who needs a replacement.

Features that matter during a workgroup lesson

Students can mirror their own devices and send content to other groups in the room or to the main presentation screen with simple drag-and-drop gestures. The lecturer controls these transfers, which keeps the lesson focused when several tables are working at the same time.

Each workgroup table can be viewed on the main Vision Exchange unit, so the lecturer can check progress across the room from one place. The reverse also works: the main view can be shared with every group table, so one explanation, instruction or example reaches the whole class at once.

The annotation function lets lecturers mark up shared material and give students extra support during the session.

Where it fits in Qatar

A private school in Al Rayyan running practical science sessions, where each group works at its own table and the teacher reviews all tables from the main unit.
A training centre in Doha delivering vocational courses, where instructors share one group's solution with every table as a worked example.
A university seminar room in Education City, where tutors mark up student group work on the main screen and discuss it with the whole cohort.

What to plan for before you order

Confirm the exact model of each main unit in the room, because this licence is written for the PEQ-C100 and PEQ-C130 Vision Exchange units. Note how many group tables each room has and where the main unit sits in relation to them. A free site survey from SmartRooms Qatar can confirm the layout, and it is especially useful when several classrooms are being fitted out in one project. Since the room conditions that matter are those of the main unit, ask our team to check the installation environment, particularly in areas exposed to heat or dust.

Questions about PEQA-C10

What is the Sony PEQA-C10 Active Learning License used for?

It is a licence for the PEQ-C100 and PEQ-C130 Vision Exchange main units that supports workgroup-based lessons. Students at group tables can mirror their own devices and send content to other groups or the main presentation screen, while the lecturer controls these transfers. It suits classrooms and training rooms where students work in groups.

Is the PEQA-C10 still available from Sony?

No. Sony has discontinued the PEQA-C10 Active Learning License. Organisations that already run PEQ-C100 or PEQ-C130 units and need this licence, or buyers looking for an alternative, can request a quote. SmartRooms Qatar will advise on a current equivalent or compatible replacement and usually responds with a quotation within one working day.

Which main units does this licence work with?

The licence is designed for the PEQ-C100 and PEQ-C130 Vision Exchange main units. Before requesting a quote, confirm the exact model of each main unit in your room so the quotation matches your existing hardware. If you are unsure which model you have, the SmartRooms Qatar team can help you check during the enquiry.

How do students share their work with other groups?

Students can mirror their own devices and send content to other workgroup tables in the room or to the main presentation screen using simple drag-and-drop gestures. The lecturer keeps control of these transfers, so the teacher decides which work reaches the main screen during a lesson.

Can the lecturer see what each group is doing?

Yes. Each workgroup table can be viewed on the main Vision Exchange unit, so the lecturer can check progress across the room from one place. A private school in Al Rayyan running a science practical, for example, could review every table's work from the main unit without moving between groups.

Can the lecturer send one view to every group?

Yes. The main view can be shared with all group tables, so a single explanation, instruction or worked example reaches every table at the same time. This suits an opening briefing before groups start their tasks, or a correction that applies to the whole class.

How does the annotation function help in class?

The annotation function lets lecturers mark up shared material to give students extra support during the session. A tutor in a university seminar room in Education City could add notes to a group's submitted work on the main screen and talk through them with the whole cohort.

Is this licence suited to a large lecture hall?

The licence is aimed at workgroup lessons, where students sit at group tables and share work. A lecture hall with fixed rows and a single presenter follows a different layout. For a classroom or training room with clusters of tables, such as a training centre in Doha running practical courses, the workflow matches the product's purpose. Confirm your layout before ordering.

Do I need a site survey before ordering?

A site survey helps confirm the number of group tables, where the existing Vision Exchange main unit sits relative to them, and whether the room suits workgroup use. SmartRooms Qatar offers free site surveys, which are especially useful when several classrooms in the same school or campus are being fitted out in one project.

Can a school or ministry in Qatar order this with a purchase order?

Yes. Orders can be placed with a purchase order (LPO), and payment can be made by bank transfer, cheque or purchase order. For government or tender-based purchasing, state this in your enquiry so the quotation follows your procurement process. Delivery covers all eight municipalities of Qatar.

What information should I include in a quote request?

Include the number of Vision Exchange main units, their model (PEQ-C100 or PEQ-C130), the number of group tables in each room, and the location in Qatar where the licence will be used. With these details, the SmartRooms Qatar team can quote for this licence or recommend a current equivalent or compatible replacement.
