What a Conveyor v.1 presentation looks like

by Phil Blume last modified May 20, 2009 05:01 PM

The original version of Conveyor made only one style of presentation. These were based on a single interface design that enabled a long panoramic image to be scrolled from side to side using a navigator (scroll bar) at the foot of the screen. A section of this long image would be visible in a large window in the centre of the screen and here users could click on interactive hotspots to open more windows of information. Conveyor v.1 made presentations only at a screen resolution of 640 x 480 pixels, about a quarter of the size of a typical computer screen today.

The images below show some examples of the presentations made using the original Conveyor system.
