A viewscreen was a device used for displaying images or information for the view of an audience. The Trade Federation used rippling circular viewscreens aboard its Lucrehulk-class battleships.[1] Darth Vader managed to Force choke Admiral Kendal Ozzel at a great distance while seeing him through a viewscreen.[2] Pentagonal viewscreens were common in the Galactic Empire, as exemplified by those aboard the first[3] and second Death Star,[4] aboard the the Super Star Destroyer Executor,[2] and in the shield generator bunker on Endor.[4]
