This space features a QSC touch control panel mounted to the new podium allowing for easy volume; camera, and display controls. Facing the students are two large white boards on which the room's short throw touch projector can display. Mounted in the ceiling are an AVer PTZ camera and a Shure microphone array tile, making this space fully Zoom capable.

These microphones are an array of multiple mics to pick up all the voices in the room. These microphones are connected to the Built-in PC for use in video conferencing software such as Zoom.
