Visual display experts - Ultimate Visual Solutions (UVS) have expanded the number of integrations to its Lucidity video wall controller, thereby helping to improve overall security control room operation.

Elgato Stream Deck programmable keyboards and Keyboard Video Mouse (KVM) over IP systems are the latest integration solutions to be offered to clients. They are designed to reduce the number of applications that a control room operator needs to have available and to help simplify the overall security operation.

Stream Deck and KVM integrations

The enhanced service follows a rise in requests to integrate different third-party solutions to the UVS Lucidity video wall controller platform. It comes in addition to Lucidity’s existing integrations to security Video Management Systems (VMS), including cloud-based CCTV applications.

The Stream Deck integration provides a low-cost operator keypad used for fast launching of preset video wall layouts

The Stream Deck integration provides a low-cost operator keypad used for fast launching of preset video wall layouts, and each operator can have their own keypad with their own unique preset layouts.

The KVM integration allows operators to display multiple workstations on the video wall from the KVM network and to select which workstations are viewed from within the Lucidity graphical user interface (GUI), greatly simplifying control for the operators.  

New integrations to Lucidity video wall controller

UVS Managing Director, Steve Murphy, said “We are continually adding new integrations which increase the value Lucidity brings to clients. The Elgato Stream Deck integration, for example, provides operators with intelligent buttons, which are a very fast way to launch presets.

Steve Murphy adds, “Every operator can have one, so that they have their own presets to open on a designated control room video wall, which saves time in searching for and launching individual applications as and when they are required.
