Embodiment Construction

[0007]A video wall server splits source-video into sub-images and distributes these sub-images to multiple listening display devices. Built-in algorithms optimize, parse and scale the individual video-wall segments. To accomplish this splitting efficiently it is beneficial to create a configuration file stored in a computer readable medium using information on the position, configuration and settings for each of individual physical display and how they relate to the video-wall canvas. Using such a configuration file allows the video wall server to efficiently create a seamless canvas across the display units. This invention deals with methods of supplying the information for the creation of such files by means of feedback based on test-canvasses and to sequentially changing the configuration file before redeploying a test-canvas to further improve the overall viewer-image.

[0008]Configuration of Displays: This invention provides methods equipping the server with a configuration file ...

Abstract

A system is disclosed for identifying, placing and configuring a physical arrangement of a plurality of displays via image analysis of captured digital camera images depicting unique configuration images output to said displays to facilitate uniform operation of said plurality of displays as a single display area for example as a video wall. The system pairs and configures displays depicted in the captured images to individual displays within the physical arrangement through controlling and analyzing of the output of said displays captured in said images. A method and computer readable medium are also disclosed that operate in accordance with the system.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application claims priority from U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 61 / 926,295 filed on Jan. 12, 2014, which is hereby incorporated by reference.FIELD OF INVENTION[0002]Large electronic displays, may be formed from an array of monitors referred to as a “video-wall”. For example video-wall might be comprised of a 3 by 3 array of nine monitor, each monitor simultaneously displaying a segment of a single image, thereby creating the appearance of a single large display comprised of rectangular portions.[0003]The present invention relates generally to improving the setup and operation of large displays and particularly to network addressable video-wall displays.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0004]The present invention relates generally to improving the setup and operation of video-wall displays and particularly to network addressable displays.[0005]A video-wall display system is a method to overcome the costs of manufacturing and install...
