Nute Gunray and Rune Haako communicating with Padmé Amidala via a circular viewscreen
A viewscreen, also known as a holoscreen, was a device for displaying images or information for the view of an audience.[1] The main component of a viewscreen was the alloy transparisteel, which was made of the mineral lommite.[2]
The Trade Federation used rippling circular viewscreens aboard its Lucrehulk-class battleships.[3] Darth Vader Force choked Admiral Kendal Ozzel at a great distance while seeing him through a viewscreen.[4] Pentagonal viewscreens were common in the Galactic Empire, as exemplified by those aboard the first[5] and second Death Star,[6] aboard the the Super Star Destroyer Executor,[4] and in the shield generator bunker on Endor.[6]
