I made this comment on LinkedIn about how awesome HiperZones are, so thought I’d share it here too. HiperZones is a new capability added to Hiperwall video wall software Version 8.0.
It is hard to explain how liberating the user/operator experience is with HiperZones, but I’ll try. HiperZones allows you to create essentially virtual video walls within your larger video wall. Just as virtual memory on your computer protects your application’s memory space, lets your program act as if it has the machine to itself, and prevents it from accessing memory it shouldn’t, HiperZones does much the same thing. When controlling content in a zone, the operator’s actions don’t affect content in other zones, so the operator can clear their content, add content, or move it anywhere without having to worry about covering up or removing critical content in other zones. It is a powerful feeling knowing you can control your zone without breaking anything for other users. HiperZones is by far my favorite feature of Version 8 of the Hiperwall video wall software.
