8902 Ultimate Visual Solutions (UVS) has developed an alarm system which it says can be used in a traffic control centre where on-screen colour changes represent major fluctuations.

The system, which operates within UVS’ Lucidity video wall controller and control software, allows staff to set pre-set alarm points.

UVS managing director Steve Murphy says the solution provides an audible and visual alarm on the video wall.

“We are now adding this feature as an option to the standard Lucidity control software or as a standard feature within our specially priced ‘Pro’ version,” he adds.

Lucidity is aimed at clients who require a solution where full command and control components are not needed. The range is available from UVS and AV system integrators for resale to their end clients
