M-Series graphics card flawlessly displays picture perfect images and videos across six 60" pivoted screens

MONTREAL, May 3, 2011 - Matrox Graphics Inc. today announced that Dentsu, one of the world's
largest advertising agencies, used the Matrox M9188 PCIe x16 multi-display
octal graphics card to drive a six-monitor, portrait-oriented digital signage
installation in Tokyo Midtown. The Matrox M9188 board was the only solution
to meet their strict performance and multi-display criteria, and today
shoppers, residents, and passers-by benefit from a truly unique art and
advertising platform at resolutions of 1080×1920 per display.

Dentsu looked to build Japan's first Digital Art Board (DAB), a
revolutionary digital signage display designed to be part art exhibit, part
advertising tool. Hiring Content Interface Corporation (CIC) to manage the
installation, the interactive digital multimedia system developer chose the
Matrox M9188 graphics card to serve as the display engine for the DAB based
on its multi-display flexibility and stability. Supporting six 60" high
resolution folding screen monitors in portrait mode, the M9188 flawlessly
displays both images and video content across an astonishing 6480×1920
desktop. Unlike other graphic cards tested, the Matrox M9188 also offered the
Matrox PowerDesk software suite that delivers advanced desktop management
features including Bezel Management, which ensures the seamless display of
images across multiple monitors.

"Audiences are thoroughly impressed by the quality and clarity of the
DAB," comments Hao Le, President, Content Interface Corporation. "Finding a
graphics card that could display high-quality video across six super-high
resolution displays in portrait mode was critical to the success of this
project. The Matrox M9188 met all our requirements where others failed."
