Data-Video Wall Applications:
iH4
The iH4 range of graphics cards are
powerful multi-screen graphics adapters providing solutions for high quality,
complex data/video walls or multi-screen desktop applications.
Using multiple iH4 cards in your system
it is possible to create a display which allows the Windows desktop to be
spread across a maximum of 32 screens. Constructing a multi-screen data/video
wall using the iH4 range of graphics cards enables the display to be arranged
in any rectangular format, by introducing the iH4-PRO and iH4-DIG, the option
of displaying high quality video overlays becomes available.
In effect, four graphics cards in one,
the iH4 has four independent 64bit Savage4-PRO graphics processors, each with
16MBytes of memory - one per display channel - to bring superb image quality
at high resolution and colour depths. With four DVI outputs, each supporting a
resolution of 1280 x 1024 (digital) and 1600 x 1200 (analog) you can be sure
of displaying all the applications you need. If you need more screens, simply
install another iH4 card in your machine up to a maximum of 8 cards..
DataSoft multi screen video solutions use the latest digital technology for
stunning video quality. Multiple independent video windows can be displayed
simultaneously, and can be scaled to full screen with horizontal and vertical
interpolation for high quality images. Chroma-key support also allows you to
overlay graphics onto video and video onto graphics.
Every iH4 solution also includes Wall Control, DataSoft's leading wall control
management software for the professional approach to display handling.
The iH4 can also be used with up to four
VQS01 controllers allowing you to increase the number of displays from 4 to 16
from a single iH4 card. For wall applications requiring support for a large
number of displays, it is possible to use up to eight iH4 cards and 32 VQS01
controllers. This configuration provides support for up to 128 displays.
Note: The maximum resolution per display
when using the VQS01 is 1024 x 768.
