16k tiled display
During FIA'11 we have demonstrated for the first our high resolution visualization panel which consists of 64 24 LCD each of resolution of 1920 wide and 1200 high which is more than full HD picture. Thus, the total resolution of our tiled display was 15 360 pixels wide and 9 600 pixels high (almost 150 megapixels in total). The physical dimension of the display is about 4.5 meters wide and 3 meters height. This setup provides and extraordinary visualization space with pixel resolution much higher than most of exiting visualization walls. Our experimental visualization display offers completely new capabilities that can be applied in scientific or business visualizations and virtual remote group cooperation. The visualization setup is driven by open source software. Depending on the application scenario we use one of the following software tool-kits: # SAGE - "Salable Adaptive Graphics Environment" - SAGE is a pixel streaming system supporting high and continuous display resolutions. With the use of optical networks of up to 100Gbit throughput, SAGE can potentially operate multi-display visualization environments. The SAGE network architecture allows many users to simultaneously run various applications (such as 3D rendering, remote desktop, video streams and 2D maps) on local or remote clusters. Moreover, they can easily share their applications via the modern networks by streaming the pixels of each application over ultra-high-speed networks to the tiled displays. The output of any M by N pixel rendering application is streamed to X by Y pixel region of the display allowing users definable layouts on the display. The dynamic pixel routing capability of SAGE lets users freely move and resize each of the application's windows, # Equalizer Graphics library - which is an OpenGL based solution for high performance parallel rendering, # Vitrall - our own implementation of distributed web based visualization system.
