Client Types

Lygos consists of three main client types:
PC Version of the software can summon multiple clients.
Tablet Versions can display a single client of choice.

Screen Client:

Distributed Screens forming a Seamless Screen on Video Walls
A screen area where maps, visualizations, and media can be deployed remotely from Management Clients.
Can be the whole screenspace (dashboard) and allow multiple visualizations in a grid format.
Can be part of a larger screenspace (videowall) and display partial or full visualizations.
Screen clients are synchronized, so deployments across multiple screens behave as one seamless screen.
You can summon these clients from the launcher and move them to any display.
Lygos remembers their positions and restores them on restart.
