 Judicial
Services
It could be argued that communication, comprehension, and retention are the building blocks of our country's judicial system. In a courtroom, it remains paramount that a strong and stable line of communication be maintained between the judge, the plaintiff and defense teams, and the jury in order for a proper trial to take place.
Over the years, however, our consultants have been approached by state and county officials who maintain that speech intelligibility and overall volume in their courtrooms were low, making it difficult for parties involved in legal proceedings to understand the deliberations. These situations lead to lack of retention and misunderstandings, which obviously could have serious repercussions to the ethical success of a trial.
Our engineers at R & D Industries approach these issues in two ways: acoustically and technologically. In other words, after studying and testing the geometry and make-up of the room, they can recommend treatments that would improve and possibly even correct poor acoustics existing in the room. If the courtroom could then still use additional sound reinforcement, our engineers can design and implement a sound system that would correct issues of intelligibility and volume.
Our engineers could further include visual elements within the system that would improve the presentation of evidence and documents to the jury, as well as allow for "satellite" testimony through video teleconferencing. No matter the courtroom's audio and visual goals, our consultants and engineers will work closely with you to ensure those goals are met.
