High Court deputy registrar Khairi Haron illustrating how a witness can highlight the disputed area in a technical drawing on the interactive white board used in the high-tech equipped Construction Court at Jalan Duta. The actual document sits on a table behind the board. The visualiser, hanging from the ceiling, sends an image of the document to the board. The screen hanging from the ceiling has the same image projected onto it for others to see.
