Displays & Extras
As described in the room layout section, the room size and viewing distances are key to selecting the best screen size. The screen height should be at least an 8th of the distance from the screen to the farthest viewer, with the closest viewer no closer than 1.5x the screen height from the screen.
Key Hints
Head to the Room Designer section for a full breakdown of recommended screen size vs occupancy.
As a starting point, here are some typical screen sizes and corresponding closest and farthest viewer distances:
48" Screen: 0.9 - 4.8m (3.0' - 15.7')
55" Screen: 1.0 - 5.5m (3.3' - 18.0')
65" Screen: 1.2 - 6.5m (3.9' - 21.3')
75" Screen: 1.4 - 7.5m (4.6' - 24.6')
85" Screen: 1.6 - 8.5m (5.2' - 27.9')
Key Hints
Note - the screen size is measured diagonally. Dimensions are assumed from the display screen surface. Head to the Viewing Area section for more information.
Screens should be mounted centrally to the table. The screen height should allow for comfortable viewing. As a guide. keep the bottom of the screen less than 1100mm (44") from the floor.
Key Hints
Take a look at the camera section for guidance on camera height. When mounting the camera on or below the screen, you may need to find a compromise between screen height and camera height.
Single screens work well for everyone in the room. Dual screens can also be used, but care should be taken to ensure both screens can be seen by all participants.
Key Hints
Remember to use suitable mounts for the size and weight of the screens you wish to use.
