Abstract

A system for controlling a display panel array, the display panel array comprising a plurality of display panels and being operative to display a plurality of user interface widgets is described. The system includes a plurality of display adaptors controlling a layout of output on at least one display panel of the array, a layout engine for arranging each of the plurality of user interface widgets on the display panel array, the layout engine utilizing at least metadata published by each of the plurality of user interface widgets, a layout of the plurality of user interface widgets presently in use, and an area of the display panel array, the layout engine being operative to split a plurality of outputs among each one of the display adaptors, receiving at a system controller a multimedia input from at least one network adapter, the system controller managing runtime context for each of the plurality of user interface widgets, the system controller operative to produce an output comprising at least a portion of the multimedia input for each one of the plurality of user interface widgets, communicating bi-directionally between the system controller and a companion device external to the system, wherein the system controller sends information on the layout and metadata about layout constraints for each of the plurality of user interface widgets to the management application. Related apparatus, systems, and methods are also described.
