How the University of Rhode Island Uses Epiphan Pearl Nexus and Panopto for Seamless Lecture Capture

By Stephanie R 0 Comment July 22, 2025

At the University of Rhode Island (URI), AV is designed to stay out of the spotlight. “We try to make everything as seamless and invisible as possible, to let the teaching take center stage,” says Katie Babula, AV Manager.

To meet growing demand for video content, URI’s AV team deployed Epiphan Pearl Nexus across 45 classrooms and auditoriums, fully integrated with Panopto and Q-SYS. The result? A hands-free, automated lecture capture solution that lets instructors simply walk in and teach.

Faculty schedule their recordings in advance. Pearl Nexus handles camera feeds, content, and audio, while Panopto delivers recordings directly to URI’s LMS. Check the Pearl Nexus out in action:

Tech Highlights:

  • Epiphan Pearl Nexus for capture, recording & streaming
  • Panopto for content management & scheduling
  • Q-SYS for control & AV routing
  • Epiphan Edge for centralized management
