Architecture
easyvis.io provides visualization-as-a-service which means once you are registered with us that you can easily access our service via our API or through the console. easyvis.io can be seen as a visualization middleware which abstracts all the complicated device setup, management and control logic.
There are three main concepts which you should be aware of:
- Visualization Apps: Small apps which allow you to visualize a certain kind of digital content (e.g. videos, images, animations, websites, …). These apps can be called directly via the API.
- Controller: There are two posssible controllers. The Raspberry Pi controllers focuses on visualizing content on LED light solutions while the Android App is for high definition visualization content targeting TVs and tablets
- Outputs: A controller can support multiple outputs at the same time so that a variety of visualization devices can be controlled by one controller. For adressing different outputs multiple protocols (e.g. Artnet, SPI - WS2812 or HDMI) are supported.
