Windows

Having windows looking into the Game Space will introduce variable light conditions in the game area, which could interfere with player tracking.

Our system is not designed to have windows in the Game Space. However, If you want to attempt a window, you must:

• Use a reasonably dark tint on the windows.
• Use segments of opaque graphics on the inside windows (white 50mm vinyl tape)
• Be prepared to completely cover the windows with vinyl if player tracking becomes an issue.
