At the last election with the old set in B they had to take the studio out of use for a few days either side to install (and then remove) a touchscreen. Potentially if the studio supports AR they might not need A for green screen visualisations.(16-03-2023, 07:33 PM)IanJRedman Wrote: Setting aside whether it's really necessary, the screen is indeed a real touch screen. It uses infrared beam break.
I think touchscreens just about justifiable if the presenter draws on, adds arrows to or circles items to demonstrate something.
When all it does is advance (or even back-up) a prebuilt presentation, then I really can't see the point.
