Many of its members collaborate remotely, for which they use web-based communication tools, as Zoom, to stay connected. Precisely when the organization recently moved to a new office, A key aspect to take into account was having a conveniently equipped meeting room to simplify videoconferences and presentations between its members..

A requirement of this project was to have a video wall at the front of the room, as well as with a screen on the back in which the same content will be displayed. Besides, both visual systems could not be limited only to making videoconferences, but serve multiple additional purposes.

The solution selected for this project, the visual network platform Userful, not only allows the MCG foundation to use its screens for video conferencing and presentations, but also provides support for high-quality content (up to 10k), as well as flexibility to divide the video wall into multiple zones to display images, slideshows, video conference broadcasts.

Besides, to seamlessly use multiple source applications, those responsible for the MCG changed their desktop computers for laptops with a VNC Steamer connection, in which it is possible to include 8K content, HTML5, 3D, live tv, full screen browser, content of an integrated CMS,…

Since this project was carried out, MCG board members can conduct more productive video conference meetings with multi-screen visual networking.
