There really is no practical limit to how many people can participate in a Human Video Board. It can scale way beyond 100,000 seats!

Check out the Video section of this site to see clips from previous shows. And there’s always a small demo running so you can try out the Human Video Board app yourself to see how it works.

There are three types of shows. Color shows use smartphone screens and can include millions of colors. Flash shows use the camera flash to create dazzling animated effects. Combination shows combine both flash and color for a truly unique display!

There are seven different ways shows can be started to fit the needs of the organizer, from precise countdowns to remote control. Ask us for more information!

No. Our app never uses the smartphone’s microphone. Participants can be confident we don’t listen to them or their friends! Note that both iOS and Android will always ask the user for permission before an app can use the microphone, but they don't provide any controls to prevent the recording or transmission of audio data over the network.

Yes! The darker the better. Indoor shows can be performed using either color screens or flash. Outdoor shows can be color if the venue is dark enough. Flash shows work great under any conditions!

Yes! Each phone has a unique part to play in every show. There is really no limit to how creative you can be.

For our “traditional” shows in which every phone performs a unqiue part, the app asks participants to select their section, row, and seat before the show(s) start. We can also create shows where participants don’t need to provide seat information. Shows of this type contain any number of unique “tracks” randomly assigned to participating phones, creating light shows in which all phones combine to create amazing effects.

Minimal network access is required for smartphones to get their part of planned light shows leading up to an event, but is not required during the actual show. In other words, we won’t bring down your network!

Of course!
