Background:
A major manufacturer of light emitting diode (LED) based photoconductor products has ranked among the top 5 in the global LED market share.
Challenge:
The company has factories in Taiwan, Shenzhen and Suzhou, China. In order to remotely monitor the on-site production environment, multiple cameras are installed at each factory site and connected to the NVR network monitoring host, and multiple screens (/TV) are switched via KVM (Multi Computer Switch), but the KVM cannot split the content on the screen at will, nor can it switch between 30 user-defined screen combinations. In addition, 20 monitors require 20 sets of KVM hardware, which is not only expensive, but also requires connection to each of the dial-in hosts via mouse, keyboard, and monitor cables, making it difficult to upgrade and implement bottlenecks for manufacturers' future multi-IT system (BI, MES, WMS, etc.) integration plans for expanding factories.
Solutions:
Interactive multi-screen playback software : Video Wall
The Video Wall supports 2x2~4x4 split screen playback with resolutions up to 16K without the need to connect to KVM, reducing hardware hardware costs and cable complexity. The software tool allows you to customize screen splicing, screen configurations, screen context combinations, playback schedules, and content support for Chrome/Power Points/4K video/PDF, etc. In addition to the camera screen, you can switch to play reports or presentations at any time.
Benefits and results:
- The Video Wall software captures cross-plant live camera footage via URL. Save time on KVM installation and multi-wiring.
- The Video Wall playback software is cost effective and can be installed at a third of the cost of a KVM, and can capture multiple video sources with just a slim, fanless industrial PC. It is easy to stitch together 4 screens (/TV).
- The Video Wall UI is designed to be intuitive and easy to operate in three simple steps. Within five minutes, you can easily complete the design, deployment and playback of NVR and ERP management screens, and quickly switch between multiple screen configurations to facilitate managers to obtain cross-system operational insights in real time, and to realize the benefits of operational intelligence and profit maximization decisions.
