To do that, please provide us with a PDF file of your talk before the start of the session, in which your talk is scheduled. However, you may also use your own laptop if necessary (Testing the connection to the projector with us in advance is highly recommended.). The projector has ports for VGA and HDMI and an aspect ratio of 16:9. Apple users should not forget to bring an appropriate adapter.
