Distributed control platform driving 48 flip-dot panels as a single 168×112 display (2.6×1.8 m), with multimedia playback and remote management.
A large-format flip-dot installation required 48 panels to operate as one coherent display, while supporting multimedia content, remote connectivity and reliable field operation.
Cactus built a distributed control platform to operate 48 panels as a single 168×112 dot display, supporting multimedia playback, live camera streaming, remote content management and real-time updates. Edge processing ensures private, low-latency video while enabling cloud-independent operation.
