Everyday life at the institute

The list at the office

Whoever needs the lab device signs up on a list, or calls when the office happens to be staffed.

"Who has the projector case?"

The AV equipment is constantly on the move. Only the grapevine knows where it is right now.

Clashes in the seminar room

Two events in the same room, noticed only when both groups stand in front of it.

The Solution

How universities use Dispoly

Booking pages per institute

Every institute or department gets its own booking page, bookable without individual accounts.

Real-time availability

Every booking is visible immediately, and double bookings are technically impossible.

QR codes on rooms and devices

A QR code on the seminar-room door or the equipment trolley. Scan, see, book.

Campuses and buildings as locations

Map campuses, buildings, and institutes as locations and organize resources with categories.

Usage log per device

Record operating hours, lamp hours, or remarks at pickup and return. Anyone who books without an account uses the link in their booking email. The logbook shows how much each device ran per month and exports to Excel.

For institutes & departments

Start small, grow with the semester

Begin with one institute and a few devices, then expand later to more departments, rooms, and locations.
