Users can access multiple data sources such as web browsers, remote workstations and RSS feeds alongside traditional CCTV images

Video wall technology firm Ultimate Visual Solutions (UVS) has integrated its UVS Lucidity video wall controller with Synectics’ Synergy command and control software platform.
 
The companies are in a long-term strategic partnership: their first project together, utilising Synectics’ Synergy command and control platform, was in 2007 for the UK's Wakefield Metropolitan Borough Council’s urban traffic and CCTV control room.

“The integration brings the significant display functionality benefits of the Lucidity video wall solution to Synergy users including the display of multiple data sources such as web browsers, remote workstations, message boxes, RSS feeds and collaboration devices alongside traditional CCTV images," says UVS managing director Steve Murphy.

"Any data source can be displayed anywhere on the video wall allowing large-scale viewing of data sources during specific incidents. Via the integration, Synergy also provides detailed alarm configuration to ensure relevant data is displayed automatically when specific events occur.” 
 
Sree Namelil, product manager at Synectics, says: “Synergy is designed to make sure control room operatives always have the information they need when, and how, they need it. Its ability to integrate with leading third-party technologies is essential to this mission."
