Video walls are often used in conjunction with a cluster computing system. In this setup, each individual monitor is controlled by a separate computer. The growth of video wall technology has come a long way since the early years of its conception to todays incarnations. originally developed for the military as a method for space command to track orbiting debris and shuttle missions it was quickly implemented throughout the Military s other branches and has since made its way into the public mainstream markets. Video Walls are also implemented in a number of well-funded University laboratories as ultra-high resolution visualization tools for very large data sets.
