Two linked Analog Way Aquilon RS6 systems drove big-screen content at the multi-day Salesforce Dreamforce 2025 event in San Francisco, the world's largest and most trusted AI event. The Aquilon RS6 systems replaced older, multi-frame legacy systems, increasing reliability, visual fidelity, and operational speed for the live demos, use of real devices, and real-time interaction that are critical for Salesforce events.

Why it matters

Salesforce events demand absolute reliability, visual fidelity, and operational speed, as live demos, use of real devices, and real-time interaction leave no margin for error. The Aquilon RS6 met those demands while reducing system complexity, improving image quality, and supporting extensive redundancy.

The details

A pair of Aquilon RS6 systems were linked to support high input counts and provide full redundancy, with a single RS6 capable of driving the show. The Aquilon RS6 systems replaced older, multi-frame legacy systems, increasing reliability and reducing complexity. The live demo workflow featured real devices presented on stage with animated device 'bezels,' and the RS6's extensive layering resources were heavily utilized to avoid conflicts and support complex compositions.
