A double Led screen welcomes you to the skyscraper 55 New York Water Street

DCBolt has custom developed the content displayed on the two Christie Led screens, which is powered by the Signagelive CMS and controlled by Crestron software.

He 55 Water Street of New York is a skyscraper 209 meters high and 53 apartments located in lower Manhattan in New York. In the lobby of this office building, a double canvas made up of two LED screens has been installed. Christie, with dimensions each of 6×2,4 metros, offering a total resolution of 6,400×1.260 pixels. In addition, The control system has also been implemented Crestron and the RGB Spectrum Multi-Window processor.

The implementation and development of content have been carried out by DCBolt Productions who has built a custom Windows based media server to handle the approximate 8K space, and you are using the CMS Signagelive to manage the five programmed layouts offered by the 12 hours of content ranging from brand information to animated images. According to the CEO of Sginagelive, Jason Cremins, “this is the first 8K solution powered by our CMS”.

Devin Wambolt, founder and CEO of DCBolt, explains why they considered this CMS to be the most suitable tool for this installation. “Not only because it is the most profitable on the market, but also includes all the resources necessary to control, program and customize this double screen from anywhere at any time”.

DCBolt designed an infotainment environment with multiple windows for high traffic hours displaying a variety of content feeds, including tickers, transit, climate, news, sports and social networks.

The biggest challenge faced with this project was related to the network. High bandwidth required to dynamically extract and display multiple data sources and content at the same time.

Another challenge came from the custom stock ticker as a stock ticker with such a high resolution had not been produced to date.. The requirement was a custom program that integrated high-resolution logo assets and variable speed settings to account for canvas size and resolution..
