University of South Carolina Strom Thurmond Wellness & Fitness Center

Working with base-building architect Garvin Design Group, sky design developed this digital signage program to assist messaging and scheduling as part of an environmental graphics package for this multi-use facility on campus. The program comprises 23 Leyard uEV 4mm LED modules using three Planar Clarity VCS Video Wall show controller-processors, and running on a custom PC with a NVIDIA Mosaic-capable graphics card to play the messages. The digital message center eliminated the visual clutter of traditional posters and easels.
