John Singer of JGS Software www.jgssoftware.com produced
and installed interactive exhibits to provide the visitor with a dynamic tour of the Hudson River.
On visitor pushbutton demand, images
are presented upon a 42" plasma monitor.
Images are stored on the hard drive
of a Dell PC. Pushbutton access
is provided by Museum Technology
KE-8 Keyboard Emulators. In addition
to sending the commands through the
PS-2 keyboard port of the Dell, the KE-8
also illuminates the pushbutton (Museum Technology X-6000 series)
