The projector is located so as to maximize the image size on the available projection surface. This means a 25 foot diagonal image which assures adequate viewing even in the back of the room. Each projector has a remote control to switch between either computer or video input as well as to turn on, focus and zoom the unit. We anticipate, however, that many faculty members will want to run their own applications and software. The easiest way to facilitate this would be if the indvidual faculty member has access to either their own laptop or a departmental laptop.
All necessary cables are already present in the classroom.
The ordered furniture looks like this . As such, there is no good way to yet secure the laptops and hence they will be available on a checkout basis. Hold down the green button on the LCD projector remote control for a couple of seconds. The laptop has a stiff trackball for its pointer. We have two radio controlled external mice which will free up the instructor from having to be near the laptop during the course of a lecture.
