The Barbara Jordan Conference Center utilizes a variety of state-of-the-art audio and visual equipment.

PowerPoint can be used with this system, as well as live Internet access and DVD. An AMX audio-visual touch panel allows the speaker to control A/V from any part of the conference space. Wireless microphones as well as a daisy-chain microphone system are available in the conference facility.
The conference center includes remote controlled, wall-mounted 3-chip broadcasting cameras. Multiple scenes of broadcast lighting have been installed for event broadcasting, taping or webcasting within the conference facility.
