Cool New Video Wall Creations – for Medicine?

Staff Reporters

Hiperwall software enables anyone to build a scalable, high performance video wall from ordinary computers, monitors and an ethernet network.

Many Content Types

Hiperwall allows viewing in any combination of content types:

• Ordinary graphic images
• Extremely large graphic images, up to 1 gigabyte or larger
• Digital movies, including standard and HDTV format
• Streaming content from cameras and other live sources
• Live “sender” feeds that let a room full of people view the constantly changing screen displays of one or more computers

Hiperwall has the ability to resize and relocate each content object anywhere on the video wall, within a single monitor or across multiple monitors. It is as easy as moving and resizing windows on the desktop of your personal computer. Hiperwall also provides advanced capabilities like zoom, rotation, shading and transparency, enabling users to examine content with increased flexibility and effectiveness. It is based on technology originally developed by researchers from the University of California at Irvine, and is now available for use by anyone www.Hiperwall.com

Assessment

Now, what does this all have to do with healthcare? Well, think digital radiology, cardiology, PET, CT and MRI scans, and others graphically intensive specialties? For example, an early client was Stanford University Medical School and Samsung Electronics. Still, with few other clients and only a hand-full of employees, consider overall costs, viability and follow-up support. Nevertheless, on January 24, 2009 – Information Week named the company as the “Startup-of-the-Week.”
