Video Wall setup in Fast Motion

Watch SmartSource setup a 3 x 3 Plasma Video wall in fast motion at our 2009 technology fair in New York. We setup a camera on a tripod and filmed the entire setup process for one of our 3×3 seamless video walls, then compressed it down into about 1 minute of footage. The video wall is made up of nine 42″ seamless plasma monitors and can take both video and PC inputs. Video Wall Quotes & More info.

SmartSource Rentals provides full service video wall setup, support and delivery. If you are looking to make a huge impact at your next corporate event, trade show or product launch then this is the technology you need to do it. Anyone that passes by a wall of nine 42″ plasma displays will be blown away at the intense size and quality of the video being show. The video panels can be controlled individually or combined to create one massive size wall of high quality plasma video.
