HydraVenues

Getting Started Overview

Wired Clients & Displays

Receiver workstations (Mac Mini, Dell, or similar) connect via ethernet to display screens for spectator views, control dashboards, or companion experiences. These workstations also handle local peripheral capture (camera, microphone) via USB and forward data over the network to the HYDRA Body for processing.

All peripherals are managed by HYDRA and connect directly to the workstation. No additional network ports or power requirements from the venue.
