Handheld Microphone
A handheld microphone is a simple way in which a presenter or an
audience member can make himself or herself heard clearly,
regardless of the size of the audience or the size of the
venue. As long as the public address system that is
amplifying the hand held microphone is powerful enough, all the
audience members should be able to hear the words spoken into the
handheld microphone.
It is often useful to have a second microphone available if an
audience member wants to speak to the rest of the audience because
this will allow the presenter to have access to their own
microphone without needing to move around too much. It can be
impractical to pass around a single microphone if the audience is
large and this is where a wireless handset microphone comes in
useful, each IML keypad has a built in microphone.
Very often a wireless handset microphone will be used in
addition to the wireless
keypads used in electronic voting systems because these systems
are geared towards audience interaction. Combining a
microphone and a wireless keypad is an effective way of enhancing
audience participation.
Handheld microphones are an essential part of facilitating
communications in an audience. Varying audiences and settings
demand different kinds of handheld microphones, but whether it is a
microphone tethered to a cable on the stage or a microphone
integrated in an audience response system its ability to enable
good audience-wide communication cannot be ignored.
