tvONE’s CORIOmaster has been chosen to drive video walls at the new Lloyds Bank
Advanced Manufacturing Training Centre (AMTC), located on the campus of the
Manufacturing Technology Centre (MTC) at Ansty Park, Coventry.

Commenting, Adam Lillystone, Head of Audio Visual Services at the MTC, said, “Our
mission is to inspire Great British Manufacturing, and we operate some of the most
advanced manufacturing equipment in the world. We designed our new Training
Centre to fully reflect that vision, providing the stage for exciting conferences and
events arranged both by us and by external partners.”

On arrival, guests are greeted with a striking video wall in a scatter formation of
sixteen 47″ LG panels driven by a tvONE CORIOmaster C3-540. The wall can present
videos, company logos, messages and real-time event information. The main
lecture theatre features a 25-screen video wall comprising of LG 55″ panels driven
by a second CORIOmaster C3-540 for larger than life high resolution presentations
or dramatic cinema screenings. The screens especially in the scatter wall are
located up to 70m from the CORIOmaster units so the output is fed through C3-540
HDBaseT output cards, over CAT6 cable to 41 HD-One LX500 HDMI Video & Audio
Extension Receivers.

Lillystone added, “The scatter wall clearly provided the greater technical challenge,
but using the tvONE CORIOmaster units it was very easy to configure correct
playback across the four landscape and twelve portrait screens that make up the
wall. This feature creates a real impression on everyone who visits the centre. The
wall in the lecture theatre, with 25 screens in a regular 5×5 formation, was much
more straightforward. We have made this impressive feature very simple for
presenters to use. All they need to do is attach a laptop to the HDMI or VGA
interface provided and the technology ensures that their screen is correctly
presented to the audience in the room.”

Alan Greenfield, Regional Sales Manager UK & Ireland at tvONE added, “tvONE
manufactures in the UK and it is particularly exciting to be involved in a project that
showcases British manufacturing to the world. The AMTC demonstrates perfectly
how a video wall can create a huge impression, but with the right technology can be
easy and straightforward to set up.”
