Confidential | © 2006 Planar Systems, Inc. Set-it & Forget-it Technology… Encompasses a broad set of capabilities that automates the continuous adjustments of Clarity cubes at peak performance. SiFi features minimize the amount of human intervention involved in maintaining an optimized cube or wall. The first implementation of SiFi technology is the SiFi Auto Color Balance (ACB) and Dual Lamp System in the SP Series. SiFi - More than Color Balance

Confidential | © 2006 Planar Systems, Inc. SiFi Auto Color Balance SiFi Auto Color balance (ACB) is designed to automate the continuous operation of Clarity displays at peak performance SiFi ACB reduces the time and complexity involved in maintaining an optimally balanced wall SiFi ACB works in concert with the SiFi Dual- Lamp System

Addressing the Challenge of Keeping Video Walls Looking their Best Cube to cube color and brightness matching is a constant process because lamps degrade at different rates over time Degradation of lamps results in uneven color and brightness Manually balancing cubes across a wall is time-consuming, challenging and disruptive SiFi ACB automates that process in a highly accurate way so that the wall always looks its best
