I assumed that was cgi - like a weather forecaster waving at a bluescreen. Did she have any way of choosing the seat? I think it may have been 100% controlled offscreen.
Totally farcical UX - the screen had 3 functions yet she had to walk back and forth to slap a tile to switch them. Its a bad sign to measure Fitt's distance in meters! A remote would have been more sensible but it was for the pretense of being tech, not actual practicality.
