From Office Space to Live Demo Environment

SmartPixel’s Montreal office was designed to function as more than a traditional workspace. With multiple large-format, touch-enabled displays installed throughout the space, we can host live demos and invite partners and clients to experience SmartPixel through direct interaction.

This setup reflects how SmartPixel is used in real estate sales galleries and demo environments, where interactive digital twins replace static renders and PDFs during live presentations. To support this, we partnered with Planar to integrate reliable, high-resolution displays capable of supporting daily use, precise touch interaction, and large-scale visuals.

What We Needed the Space to Support

SmartPixel designs multi-touch, multi-platform interactive applications used across real estate, engineering, education, and tourism. Our office needed to support both day-to-day work and live demos without friction.

That meant the environment had to handle continuous interaction, remain visually clear at scale, and stay responsive during unscripted presentations. The goal was not to build a formal showroom, but to create a flexible space where real conversations could happen naturally around the software.

How the Space Is Set Up

To support different presentation styles and interaction modes, the office includes several interactive display formats:

  • An 8×1 Clarity® Matrix® MultiTouch LCD video wall for large-scale, wall-based interaction
  • A 4×1 Clarity Matrix video wall, configured horizontally with a touch overlay for collaborative exploration
  • Several 50-inch and 58-inch Planar® EP Touch interactive 4K LCD displays distributed throughout the space

This configuration allows SmartPixel’s applications to be explored at multiple scales, depending on the context of the discussion.

Why We Partnered with Planar

Because the office hosts live demos alongside daily operations, display reliability and responsiveness are critical. Touch accuracy, visual clarity, and consistent performance directly affect how our platform is experienced during presentations.

Planar’s display technology met these requirements, enabling us to run interactive demos confidently without interruption.

“Planar video walls work very well with our software, the reactivity of the touch sensors is extremely reliable, and the clarity and color of the displays are impressive.”
Hadrien Laporte, President and CEO, SmartPixel

How This Setup Is Used in Real Sales Conversations

This environment mirrors how SmartPixel is deployed in real estate sales galleries and client demo spaces:

  • Sales teams can run live, unscripted presentations instead of linear slide decks
  • Messaging stays consistent across reps and meetings
  • Buyers understand complex projects through interaction, not explanation
  • The experience reflects real sales scenarios, not scripted demos

What This Demonstrates in Practice

Today, SmartPixel’s Montreal office functions as a flexible demo environment where partners and clients can experience the platform in action. The space supports informal walkthroughs, scheduled demos, and collaborative discussions, all within a working office setting.

By combining SmartPixel’s interactive platform with large-format touch displays from Planar, the office demonstrates how interactive digital twins can support clarity and confidence during real sales conversations.
