WyreStorm’s NetworkHD Touch is a free app for iPad that enables live video preview and control of an entire NetworkHD system for single screen, video wall and multiview applications. As the name suggests, it's a touch-based control app that literally places control of a users’ AV system at their fingertips by giving them the ability to drag and drop the content on to each display. The responsive drag and drop operation is fluid and incredibly natural, making selection of sources to displays an even easier and more enjoyable experience. As well as being easy to use, Touch is also incredibly simple to set up thanks to configurations being automatically downloaded from the NetworkHD Controller to ensure users get hands-on with their devices in a matter of minutes. For video wall applications, Touch makes it possible to change preset display configurations in your NetworkHD system and then drag and drop more content onto the iPads virtual display placeholders in real time with changes to the actual video wall happening instantaneously. Live previews of content selected on displays are featured on the iPad screen, as well as live video thumbnail previews of connected sources along the bottom of the screen for easy access all on one interface. Whether a video wall comprising of multiple displays, or just a single screen, switching is instant, with the incredible scaling of the NetworkHD decoders ensuring the content image quality is industry leading. Images are just crystal clear and up on screen with a flick of the finger.
