The Evidence Presentation System (EPS) is replacing Clickshare. Visit our guidance for how to display evidence from your laptop on courtroom monitors using EPS.

Introduction

You can use ClickShare equipment and software to present evidence in court such as CCTV footage, digital images, audio and video recordings, and maps.

For instance, you can use the system to show the court photos of injuries in sentencing and bail hearings.

Read the guides or watch the videos below to find out how to connect your laptop, mobile phone or other device to a screen to present evidence.
