An embodiment takes the form of a method that includes obtaining a session geometry of a multi-location telepresence session that includes a first-location participant at a first location and a second-location participant at a second location, each location having respective pluralities of cameras and display segments. The method includes selecting, according to the session geometry, both a first-to-second-viewpoint second-location camera from the plurality of second-location cameras as well as a first-to-second-viewpoint first-location display segment from the plurality of first-location display segments.
Abstract: A control knob includes a control rod assembly including a base plate, a control rod, and an electronic circuit board, a display connected to receive an electrical signal from the electronic circuit board and including a display front face that displays a device status, a knob including a knob aperture wall, and a cover mounted between the knob and the base plate and including a cover sidewall that mounts to the base plate, a cover front wall mounted to the cover sidewall to cover an interior of the cover sidewall, and a display aperture wall formed in a portion of the cover sidewall and a portion of the cover front wall. The display aperture wall allows insertion of the display housing. The control rod assembly, the display, and the cover rotate with the knob when the knob is rotated.
