Project Overview
Planar’s Clarity™ Matrix LCD Video Wall System is widely recognized as a highly effective solution for control center environments. Among the most demanding of these is NASA’s Payload Operations Integration Center (POIC) at the Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, where a Clarity Matrix Video Wall is integral to the monitoring and management of science being conducted on the International Space Station (ISS). The Payload Operations Integration Center has been operational since 2001 and, during that time, flight control and other center personnel have monitored and managed ISS mission progress using a mix of large-scale computer monitors and a complement of large scale projection screens to view ISS activities and share information as needed.
In the newly renovated POIC, a video wall of nearly two dozen Clarity Matrix MX55HD displays has been installed in front of and above the flight control positions. Operational since mid-2013, the Clarity Matrix Video Wall provides capabilities that enhance collaboration among the ground team and enable them to more efficiently help the ISS crew, and researchers around the world, perform cutting-edge science in the unique space environment.
