Power companies tasked with delivering reliable electricity to millions of homes and businesses need 24/7 situational awareness of their transmission and distribution (T&D) operations to ensure continuous service. Digital map boards form the visual foundation of the control room, providing operators with a real-time view of their service area, transmission lines and voltages, power stations, and demand centers, depicting status and incidents throughout the system.
While there are many visualization platforms designed for monitoring this dynamic data, from detailed network information to topological overviews of services areas, Barco’s latest solution delivers the best combination of quality, reliability and total cost of ownership. You’ll see it and more at this year’s DistribuTECH in sunny San Diego this month!
We think visitors will agree when they see the industry’s first RGB laser video wall optimized for large scale visualization in today’s critical infrastructures: the RGB Laser for 24/7 Control Rooms.
RGB Laser for 24/7 Control Rooms - A night & day difference
The RGB Laser for 24/7 Control Rooms is truly a giant leap forward in video wall technology, over-achieving current LED-lit video wall performance with twice the brightness and triple the energy efficiency, delivering superior, consistent image quality at the lowest possible cost.
In fact, the ODL-721 RGB laser-illuminated video wall represents a vast improvement over today’s current LED-lit rear projection solutions, over-achieving in 7 categories:
Another innovative solution that puts the operator at the center of control in critical decision-making is Barco OpSpace, offering greater flexibility, efficiency and security to drive fast, accurate results.
OpSpace personalizes operator workspace with “One view, total control”
Barco OpSpace provides operators with a personalized, concurrent view of applications, remote desktops and video streams, freely combining them onto a single pixel space spanning multiple displays on the operator’s desk. Operators sit comfortably at the center of control with fast, secure access via one mouse and keyboard to all applications, viewing a complete overview of the situation – from detailed network distribution information to topological overviews of the service area – to speed analysis and decision-making.
Driving efficient collaboration for enhanced situational awareness
Our Overview video wall solutions also combine state-of-the-art collaboration software and systems to enhance situational awareness in and beyond the control room. Together, our TransForm family of controllers and CMS advanced control room management suite software power flexible display wall management and efficient collaboration. Operators enjoy a convenient way to share screens and perspectives to improve the quality and speed of decision-making.
See for yourself!
