Apollo Pro™ Video Wall Processor
Tricolor’s video wall processor products enable the display of multiple sources across projector screens, video walls, or a display wall. With big data getting bigger every day, visualizing a variety of content and sharing information for collaborative analysis means it's crucial to choose the display system that best meets your needs.
Apollo has been designed to meet the needs of all our global customers. It is based on PCI-E architecture multi-function video wall controller. The hardware is based on FPGA architecture.
Input and output card mixed insertion
Apollo’s multi-window processors allow users to display multiple video signals simultaneously on a single screen. Each window can be independently scaled, positioned, or overlapped. Users have an option to configure mixed insertion functions and input and output card insertion. This greatly improves the flexibility of the design of the system and operations efficiency. Apollo also brings a unique feature of dual card insertion along with master card docking. Apollo also allow each sub card to contain multiple interfaces. This makes Apollo fast and help it work without any equipment failure.
Video wall screen synchronization technology
Apollo offers a new way to build eye-catching video walls that scale in shape and size, creating the ultimate visual experience. Our synchronized video wall solution is created by tiling displays in any shape, configuration or orientation. Traditional video walls scale content across displays. This reduces video quality and restricts the experience to standard aspect ratios. Apollo synchronized video walls support full HD quality video on every display, and may be tiled to create shapes that simply cannot be ignored.
Real Control™ Function
Apollo integrates Real Control™ PC control module technology which address a range of common video synchronization needs and make it simple to deliver perfect video playback across entire video walls without manual configuration.
Embedded high definition scrolling caption
Apollo has a high definition dynamic scrolling caption function. This feature allows users to customize the content, direction and speed and style of scrolling caption. This unique feature is built in the hardware function. Hence there is no need of any additional software.
Analog/embed audio linkage switch
Apollo incorporate various types of analog or embed audio input which allow it to support audio linkage management and linkage output to one or multiple audio devices. Users can synchronize real-time perception of audio information.
OSD mouse control function, no client-side required
The Real Control technology in Apollo uses a direct control mode feature which supports large screen administrator operation icons and can be used to directly manage the windows and operations. Thus simplifying the operations of administrator.
Multiple Video Wall Control
Apollo supports more than 4 groups of video wall management and different resolution screens layout. It can be customized to get special output resolution.
Full 60 frames process
The ultra 4k High definition Input/output signal feature of Apollo supports full 60 frames smooth processing with no frame loss. This allows Apollo to achieve a perfect fluency, multiple adjacent signal resources and simultaneous display with 100% synchronous.
Pre-set arranged function
All the features in Apollo are pre-set in a way to make it convenient and user friendly for the operator. It supports more than 128 groups which are pre-set arranged and support real-time switching through software. This feature also make media management easier for the operator.
Fluency preview
The Real-time fluency signal preview function of Apollo can achieve high definition signals. A 30 frame per second entire screen echo can be achievable by Apollo.
