Vizrt and AMD to deploy an impressive video wall to IBC

A total of 40 displays governed by the Viz Video Wall ER system and the graphics acceleration power of the new AMD ATI FirePro V8800 will allow IBC to count 2010 With an impressive videowall in which each screen will offer a resolution of 1920×1200, with a total resolution of 19200×4800 Pixels.

A total of 40 displays governed by the Viz Video Wall ER system and the graphics acceleration power of the new AMD ATI FirePro V8800 will allow IBC to count 2010 With an impressive videowall in which each screen will offer a resolution of 1920×1200, with a total resolution of 19200×4800 pixels or 92 megapixels. For this project all the graphics have been developed by the Viz Creative Services team in New York with support from Vizrt staff in Los Angeles. Thanks to AMD ATI Eyefinity Technology, Each ATI FirePro V8800 graphics card is capable of simultaneously controlling up to four displays. In total, to govern the 40 Displays four machines will be required, two with 3 GPUs each, and two others with 2 GPUs. Each GPU will be controlled by the Viz Engine system, Setting up a unique image along the entire length of the wall. The Viz Engine processor will sync via the ATI S400 module, distributing a single frame counter to the Viz Engine, thus ensuring the same progressive animation throughout the 40 Screens. The software used to synchronize the graphics across all monitors is the Viz Video Wall, consisting of two solutions in one: Viz Video Wall Distributor and Viz Video Wall Control. The graphics will be created using the Viz Artist solution. An example of this collaboration between Vizrt and AMD we could see it recently in Siggraph 2010.
