I'm talking about the corner one that appears to have a drip system, at least it has tubing running throughout and in the video is actively dripping.

Most of the time, mist systems (like cool mist humidifiers) do not actually "water" orchids, they just keep the air humid, and watering by hand is still necessary. Even a misting system like a MistKing will only water the orchids if it runs for long enough aimed just right.

However, if your orchid roots turn green when the mist is on, and then go back to white when it is off, that should indicate they are getting enough water via just the mist. Otherwise roots and leaves will slowly wither from lack of water.
