Using a Video Wall at the Digital Signage World Expo
Sydney - New South Wales Australia
What we delivered
This was our very first time we exhibited at a Digital Signage Exhibition. In order to stand out from other exhibitors, we setup a 2×2 Video Wall each displaying different content. On one screen we displayed our Social Media profiles, showcasing our Facebook and Twitter Feeds. We also included FourSquare checkin to show who was actually at the exhibition.
The solution was designed to create a high impact display experience for communication, presentation, and visual engagement.

Video walls are useful when information needs to be highly visible and visually engaging in a shared environment.
The challenge
The challenge was to create a display experience that looked professional, performed reliably, and suited the visibility requirements of the location.
The content and screen layout needed to work together so the display felt integrated into the space rather than simply added to it.
The solution needed to suit the environment, be simple for people to understand, and give the client a practical way to manage information after the initial installation or launch.
Key requirements
- Clarity: Information needed to be easy to read, understand, and act on.
- Usability: The experience needed to feel straightforward for first time users.
- Flexibility: The setup needed to support current requirements while allowing room for future updates.
- Reliability: The solution needed to perform consistently in the live environment.
- Content control: The client needed a manageable way to keep content accurate.
Our approach
We focused on the display environment, viewing distance, content format, and the role the video wall needed to play for the client.
The interface and content structure were shaped around the existing project requirements so the final experience felt purposeful and easy to follow.

From a user perspective, the experience needed to be clear, direct, and easy to trust.
