The Briefing room was upgraded with an 87” interactive whiteboard, alongside presentation scalars, and USB switchers.

The Welcome Area was fitted with a 55” interactive display that also serves as digital signage. The Discussion Room has an 87” interactive whiteboard, and a table top interface to allow for easy display and device connectivity.

A control system with customized programming and user-interface design on a wireless Microsoft Surface Tablet was made as a central control point for devices within both the Briefing and Discussion Rooms.
