A major new product line from Paradigm AV, the Paradigm Display Wall is a large screen mega-pixel interactive display that sits on the network as a powerful, interactive device. It is based around Scalable Display Technologies’ products for automatic alignment, blending, warping and colour calibration of projected images. The megapixels are delivered via soft-edge blending of standard ultra-short-throw (UST) projectors – typically two or three. The networked Scalable software suite has image capture cards for videoconferencing, plus connection of multiple computers and video devices. According to Paradigm, the product range is based around best practices and research-based knowledge on interactive displays that are scaled to, and configured for, their specific environment. Future options will include curved screens and transportable/deployable options. Although Paradigm will be distributing complete kits, resellers will also have the option of just buying Scalable software licences and creating some or all of the solution themselves. Paradigm’s wholly owned subsidiary Simulation Displays Ltd will be handling the marketing of Scalable’s products into the simulation and reality markets. Said Paradigm’s MD Greg Jeffreys: “The development of this new product with our partners from Scalable Display Technologies has allowed us to realise many ambitions we have had to offer a cost-effective way of using commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) components to deliver advanced display solutions. I believe this will be a real showstopper for consultants and specifiers who are looking to make a step change forwards in 2012 in their clients’ display needs. It’s just the right balance between leading edge rather than bleeding edge!”
