3. a term often used is delegate can use the microphone system to speak and what he or she says will be translated simultaneously so that other delegates will be able to listen to it in one of the languages This technique permits direct communication in several languages even at very large scale events It is a simple matter to set up the INFRACOM system in such a way that it is protected against eaves dropping from outside Since all information is transmitted in the form of light waves it is possible to use opaque material as necessary to limit the area to which it is to be transmitted Dark curtains drawn across windows for instance are enough to shield a room reliably from the outside world Although the INFRACOM system is most commonly used in combination with an interpretation system and microphone management system it is also possible to use it for other purposes During organized events for instance it is possible to use infrared light to transmit information to indi vidual participants wearing receivers without disturbing anyone else present Another example might be museums applications There it is possible to provide information on individual exhibits by means of infrared light radiated only to a limited area in front of the particular exhibit Visitors listen to the information with receivers and headphones MO INFRAQOM These particular operating instructions deal with the combination of INFRACOM systems and DOL7
