Governor Cuomo is a great source of information. Can also be accessed from any computer on the monitor wall.

This system of Multiconsolings provides for a higher efficiency in the workplace and for more flexibility. This intervention to the individual computer is possible with each other at any time.

While the big screen control displays only something, if must also be dealt. The planning and design will be taken over by JST, already in a first Workshopday”their customers is present a concept and a budget estimate. Subsequently, they take over the actual design work. Renowned customers rely on the principle of the proactive monitor walls and allow their employees this innovative work.
