VideoScreen 4

The cost of VideoScreen 4 is $142.00

What's Included:

VS4-Projection — Insert rectangular or round projection screens, front or rear. Sizes are fully customizable, from common aspect ratios to 100% custom dimensions. Create folding or tripod legs, screen dress kits with adjustable softgoods, and multiple projector placement options, including flown, floor-mounted, or aligned with the screen. VS4-Projection can also suggest a lens based on screen size and projection distance, or calculate placement from a known lens rating.

VS4-LED — Insert LED array models, including panels, VersaTube®, ColourWeb®, SoftLED®, and MiPix®. Build arrays from flat tiles, tubes, domes, and capped disks, with automatic image mapping that accounts for module spacing. Mitered edges create seamless curved arrays, and array weight and wattage update automatically as your configuration changes.

VS4-Television — Insert models of plasmas, LCDs, and CRTs, including several stock models with the option to add your own custom ones. Place TVs in portrait or landscape orientation, and tilt them on the fly for kiosks, DSMs, and other custom builds.

VS4-Blended Screen — Builds on VS4-Projection to create edge-blended projection setups, flat or curved. Automatically calculates projector spacing and image overlap, with adjustable blending regions. Projectors (VS4-Blended Projector) move independently as child objects, so when you drag, rotate, or update the screen, the projectors move right along with it.

"I'm impressed. I have gone from having over 30 symbols for various video equipment to just using your tool."

"This tool has become invaluable in the very short time I have been using it. As a Project Manager, the burden of drawing projector positions falls on me quite often. This has made all of the difference in the world."
