Visionect’s new product is an electronic paper conference room booking system, most unusually called Joan.

Joan is a digital door sign system that allows for meeting room booking at the door, while also showing updates on meetings already scheduled. It features E Ink’s 6-inch electronic paper display with 16 level grayscale and a 800×600 screen resolution with full capacitive touch screen interface.

The device has Wi-Fi connectivity, communicating with the existing meeting scheduling software wirelessly, and can be mounted without cables.

Already well-received among early reviewers, Joan makes scheduling meetings easier, decrease interruptions and allow more time to focus on what is important-- the meeting itself.

OK, now here’s a joke that we just made up: What do you call this booking system when the lights are off? Joan D’Arc, of course!
