Another fun find at WWDC this week is the tiled display wall showing a live stream of App Store Sales. Interesting in finding out more about this, anyone know anything else? Video would be perfect. Video after the break, courtesy of TechCrunch.
More information:
This is a live feed showing the activity of 20,000 popular apps currently on the store. Every time a customer downloads an app, its icon lights up (5-min delay).
How they made it:
This hyperwall was built using the latest in Apple technology. It’s powered by 20 Mac Pro towers running Mac OS X Snow Leopard, It was programmed in Quartz Composer using new OpenCL APIs. And it’s shown on 20 synchronized 30-inch Apple Cinema HD Displays.
