GRCon23 A/V requirements

The emphasis of our GNU Radio conference is placed on the in-person presentations, sponsor exhibits, and personal contacts among the attendees. Live streaming is also provided to allow those who cannot attend in person and those in other time zones to participate virtually, but it is a lower priority.

Arizona Ballroom

All of the Main Track presentations will be in the Arizona Ballroom.

Video sources

• presentation of PDF or PowerPoint slides uploaded to A/V team but controlled by speaker's "clicker" at podium
• presentation of JPG or PNG sponsor slides uploaded to A/V team, shown during breaks and lunch (continuous rotation)
• presentation from presenter's laptop at podium needed for live demos (low percentage of total)
• (1) fixed position camera pointed at stage and zoomed in just enough to cover where the speaker can move, so that a camera operator isn't needed

Audio sources

• mic at podium
• (2) hand-held wireless mics
• sound from presenter's laptop for live demos
• background music for sponsor slides (live streaming only)

In-room displays

The in-room screens will show the presentation slides, and during breaks and lunch, the sponsor slides. The camera image is not displayed on the screens.

It is desired to have automatic open captions on the two displays in traditional TV format (three lines, white text on black background).

• (2) ceiling mounted data projectors
• (2) 10ft drop-down electric screens on front wall
• confidence monitor for presenter

Live streaming
