Parallel teaching from a UQ lecture theatre

There is a webcam on the preview monitor, which can be adjusted to change the position of the camera. You may want to adjust the room lighting using the touch panel for a better camera image.

You can use the provided desktop PC to display the desktop PC, a laptop or a document camera in the lecture theatre and to those participating via Zoom.

The audio from the lectern microphone, room microphone and wireless microphones can be heard both in the lecture theatre and by Zoom participants. People participating via Zoom can be heard over the lecture theatre sound system.

You can watch a video guide about how to deliver parallel teaching using the Crestron touch panel audiovisual system.
