h5. Fixed installation
When a totem won't fit in a class full of people or when we want a more adapted solution a fixed installation is required.
On a basic scenario we should place:
* A control screen within reach of the lecturer - maybe on a desk.
* VGA and audio conection for the laptop
* The microphone base
* A cameraAs for the camera position we could face many obstacules such as the lecturer movement or the audience situation. We have to considered some options where to place the camera:\* On a lateral of the room, so we have a open shot covering all the posible positions of the lecturer
* On the first line or before the first line of the audience, so we get the audience perspective, then a more natural view of the lecturer. Obviusly this solution requires a protection against manipulation and vibrations.
* On the middle of the audience or just after.
* Using the projector platform, this solution is handy but provides an unnatural perspective
