There's an obvious collection of manual buttons below the screens for critical/frequently used functions. Each occupant also has controls on their chair armrest for communications and maybe other things. Presumably those screens and touch panels will work in vacuum as well.

to me it looks like live camera, for the visual confirmation of critical components...

If you look closely, all the similar instruments are identical images, right down to the visible serial number. Which means the readings on them are not part of the simulation. That whole panel is no more than visual flavor for what the room looks like.
