It’s not like the old days. You can find video walls anywhere now…
- used by customers of all sizes across all markets
- displaying different types of content
- with various goals
- in all kinds of applications

“[There’s] a broad array of choice for how to build video walls,” he says in a Commercial Integrator video (above). “What I think integrators need to do is be familiar with at least the foundational differences between the different types of solutions that are available.”
