Museum-goers of all ages are enticed into the center to learn about Woody Guthrie as a result of its extensive use of technology, including several arrays of advanced displays from Planar Systems. One’s first encounter with Woody is at Woody’s America, an interactive map in the entrance area based on a nine-panel (3 x 3) array of Planar’s Clarity™ Matrix LCD Video Wall displays (LX46HD-L) measuring nearly 75 square feet.
Since the video wall is equipped with Planar’s unique Extended Ruggedness and Optics (ERO™) feature – an optically-bonded glass protective surface – hundreds if not thousands of people can touch the Clarity Matrix video wall every day, much like they touch their smart phones and tablets, to enter the world of Woody Guthrie and explore his writing, art and music in exquisite detail. The Clarity Matrix video wall stands up to the task, performing reliably up to 10 hours a day, six days a week, nearly all year-round.
