Once the ARD has been restarted, the Freetouch QR code will display in the bottom left hand corner of the ALICE screen.
 

Guest who want to interact with ALICE without touching the screen can now use their phone to scan the QR code and then user their smart phone to control the mouse and open a keyboard on their phone which can be used for keyboard input.

Once the guest closes the app control on their phone, the session will end. If the user leaves the session open, it will be terminate when the next person scans the QR code or if someone touches the ALICE screen.
