Re: [AG-TECH] Doorbell for the grid?



Tom,

Hehe--you've obviously never worked at a synchrotron! The area where people generally sit is a cluttered messs of comuters and electronics--wires and monitors cover most--if not all--available wall space.

We currently use headphones for the audio as echo cancelation is not cost effective or likely to work well in such a noisy environment (it can top 60db white noise at times). I do not believe there is any practical way to use the AG audio channel for getting someones attention.

Are there any/some wall/screen spaces where projections can be used at a scale significant enough to attract your attention while at work on the beamline equipment?
