In this regard, the Dean of the College Dr. Muhammad Abdullah Al Abbas has clarified that the system "is approved by the KKU President, Prof. Abdurrahman Bin Hamad Al Dawood", adding that the system monitors the movement of login and logout for faculty members in the college rooms, and smoothly turns on the sound and show devices, and turn them down after that.

Additionally, Dr. Al Abbas explained tha the system was working on Smartphone's  application where it enables the faculty member to use the various options available to him or her, in order to manage the smart rooms. He pointed out that the number of smart rooms has reached twenty, with all of them helping the teacher to deliver the lectures. Also, the lecture can be transmitted from one room and be displayed at the same time to the rest of the smart rooms.
