Tech Tip #2: LCD Technology

LCD screens enhance your next meeting or tradeshow. It's a great tool for presenters or company representatives. This technology helps the audience to better see the presenter's presentation, or to quickly understand a complicated process or product - making your event a bigger success.


This technology can be hard to understand. A few days ago, I came across this easy-to-understand video by Bill Hammack from the University of Illinois. He explains LCD basics by taking a part a monitor and explaining how it processes information.

Truss Tape Winder

Winding truss tape can be an even bigger pain than wrapping cords.

That's why Cory Wetzell and Steven Feledy invented the truss tape winder.

"We positioned an electric screw driver in between the holes of a milk crate and fastened it together with a rubber band," says Project Manager Cory Wetzell, "it makes winding truss tape much easier and cuts the time down to a few minutes."

The truss tape winder may not be the next million dollar deal, but you can rest assured that Warner AV staff are always finding ways to make your next show's preparation quicker and more efficient.
