Audience Screen - Your Methods?

[Ben Martin]

In the past, the IRI has used equipment loaned from Cyber Blue's high school. The core component is a ~20 year-old video switcher with four video inputs. This is the sort of equipment the school used years ago for filming the school news, but it still works great for robotics events. Beyond that, we used anywhere from 3-5 TV's, 3-4 cameras, a ton of RCA/BNC/Coaxial cable, and a powered video output box for sending the feed to different sources (webcast, projector screen, pits, NASA TV for a couple of years, etc). We also used headsets for communication between camera operators and the switcher operator.
