Instead of building an AutoAuditorium system into a room, why not make a portable version that you just set up when and where you need it?
The economies that an AutoAuditorium system offers derive largely from the fact that it is permanently installed in a room. That means it is always there, ready for use on very short notice. (Most setups take no more than 10 minutes. Turn the system on, connect to the video network, slide in the video tape, press RECORD, and start the presentation.) However, the actual installation requires considerable planning and effort to figure out the most advantageous places to put the cameras and microphones. The installers must then align and tune the Tracking Camera and Director image analysis subsystems. Finally, the Audio Mixers are interconnected with the existing room’s sound system. To make a reasonable and effective portable installation would require some time and effort placing and cabling the cameras and microphones, and require considerable expertise in the subtle ways an AutoAuditorium system interacts with its environment. Then, once the programs were finished, all the system comp
