Matrox TripleHead2Go Technology Powers Unique 42-Display Installation at Club Vanilli
MONTREAL, July 29 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --
VJ duo engineers 15 TripleHead2Go units directly off three Apple(R) Mac Pro
workstations for an astonishing panoramic deployment
Matrox Graphics, the leading manufacturer of specialised graphics solutions,
today announced that 4youreye has selected Matrox TripleHead2Go Graphics eXpansion
Modules (GXMs) to drive a 42-display installation at Club Vanilli. Matrox
TripleHead2Go external multi-display upgrades allow AV system integrators to
conveniently add up to three monitors per graphics output on a laptop or desktop
computer to drive dynamic, digital content across multiple monitors.
Club Vanilli has long been considered one of Austria's leading nightclub
establishments, but owner Wolf Dieter Holzhey wanted to upgrade the club's typical
interior layout with a vibrant digital signage platform. Too ambitious to manage
internally, Holzhey outsourced the hardware installation to KRAFTWERK Living
Technologies GmbH, who entrusted VJ duo 4youreye with the panorama playout
integration. 4youreye quickly identified the TripleHead2Go as the centrepiece for
this new project. While Matrox officially supports one TripleHead2Go under Mac(R) OS
X, 4youreye managed to leverage the GXM's multi-display technology to connect five
TripleHead2Go units to a single Apple(R) Mac Pro workstation. Three workstations were
combined to drive a total of 42 side-by-side displays encircling the entire club.
This unique, panoramic configuration, has given Club Vanilli the market
differentiator they were looking for while providing their patrons with a much more
enjoyable nightclub experience.
"The new club atmosphere is simply outstanding," states Holzhey. "Cool sounds and
an exchanging play of colors deliver the perfect feel-good vibes. Best of all, we can
instantly modify the mood for our customers, quickly adapting from a romantic light
setting to a hard and flashy techno beat."
