Our new
videowall image-control processor has been engineered to mix and
display the most stunning images ever seen on the "big
wall." The Vector image-control processor is modular and high
quality. It simultaneously controls up to eight image sources on a
videowall. Each video or graphic source can be controlled and
dynamically resized to any rectangular shape or position without
blocky pixels. Up to two sources can be displayed simultaneously
on the same display device. Card cages can be added to build a
videowall image-control system of up to 288 display devices in any
size or shape. An extensive range of programmable videowall
effects is available.
Large images of breathtaking quality and impressive effects allow
our clients to use Vector's image-control technology in multiple
applications, including broadcast television studios, information
displays, leisure attractions, special events, retail stores and
control rooms. Vector is designed for fixed installations or the
rental environment. Vector is rapidly establishing itself as the
new, world standard for image control.
Overview
The Vector range consists of a card cage that holds a mixture of
input and output cards allowing eight inputs and thirty-six
outputs.
Up to a maximum of eight card cages can be connected together in a
single Vector system. Highly sophisticated image re-sizing
technology frees image windows from physical screen boundaries and
produces high-quality pictures without blocky pixels, irrespective
of the attached display device. Set-up is easy using the front
panel or C-Through
control software. External equipment, such as time-base
correctors, line doublers, scan converters and decoders, is not
required.
Control and
Effect
For applications where a dynamic, high-impact display is required,
Vector comes armed with a comprehensive library of special show
effects. For fixed installations, shows can be stored in Vector's
System Manager card. Alternatively,
C-Through
control allows easy creation of advanced shows. Multiple dynamic
effects are available, such as:
- Customer logo storage
- Fixed magnifications
- Anamorphic magnifications
- Minifications
- Source viewporting
- Dynamic flying windows
- Dynamic color washes
- Display freeze
- Source freeze
- Fading luma and chroma
- Internal shows
- Full transport control of source equipment (e.g. search and
play)
Source
Types
Vector accepts signals from a variety of video and graphics
sources. The Vector input cards accept, auto-detect and process
these sources. Multiple input cards may be fitted to each Vector
card cage, allowing up to eight different sources to be displayed
on the videowall simultaneously - in full resolution and full
update rate. Currently the following source types can be
connected:
- Composite video (CVBS) - PAL or NTSC
- S-Video (or YC) - PAL or NTSC
- Component video - YCbCr or RGB
- Component HD video - ATSC standards 1080i and 720p
- RGB graphics - 640x480 (VGA), 800x600 (SVGA), 1024x768 (XGA),
1280x1024 (SXGA) up to 75Hz
Display
Types
The Vector card cage can hold up to nine Vector output cards, each
one driving four display devices (up to 36 outputs per cage).
These accept signals from the input cards; and, under instruction
from Vector's System Manager card create dynamic, magnified and
minified images of one or more sources. Up to two source windows
can be displayed simultaneously on the same display device.
Currently, a card cage can connect to the following display types:
- 640x480, 800x600 resolution displays
- 15 kHz and 31kHz displays
