ThinkHub Use Case: xCanvas

ThinkHub xCanvas takes collaboration to the next level by extending the ThinkHub experience beyond a single display to multiple displays throughout your room. Here are a few ways you can leverage ThinkHub xCanvas:

1. Customer Experience Centers

ThinkHub xCanvas is perfect for creating impactful, interactive experiences in Customer Experience Centers. Whether presenting a product demo, showcasing customer data, or walking clients through your services, xCanvas provides the flexibility to:

  • Display multiple pieces of content across several displays at once, offering a rich, multimedia experience that engages customers.
  • Seamlessly move presentations, data visualizations, and other content from one screen to another with intuitive touch gestures or T1V Access controls, enhancing your presentation flow.

Pro Tip: Use xCanvas to create a dynamic storytelling experience, where each screen tells a different part of your narrative, guiding your customers through your message step by step.

2. Command and Control Centers

In high-pressure environments like Command and Control Centers, visibility and access to real-time information are critical. ThinkHub xCanvas provides:

  • A comprehensive, multi-screen command center where teams can monitor multiple data streams at once, such as live feeds, dashboards, or operational statuses, all displayed side-by-side and updated in real-time.
  • The ability to move content across displays as needed, making it easy for team members to collaborate and focus on urgent or high-priority information.

Pro Tip: Set up different parts of the room for specific functions, such as a wall for monitoring operations and another for troubleshooting or emergency response planning, so that teams can collaborate efficiently.

3. Design Thinking Spaces

Design Thinking thrives on visual collaboration, and xCanvas allows teams to stretch their creativity across multiple displays:

  • Spread brainstorming sessions, whiteboards, and research across walls to create a free-flowing ideation process where every idea has space to be explored.
  • Use interactive tools like notes, whiteboards, and live annotations to build, refine, and capture ideas on different parts of the xCanvas.

Pro Tip: Use ThinkHub xCanvas to categorize different areas of your design thinking process—one wall for problem statements, another for potential solutions, and another for feedback and iterations—allowing for a more organized, holistic approach to brainstorming.

4. Visualization Labs

ThinkHub xCanvas is designed to handle large sets of data, making it an ideal tool for Visualization Labs. With xCanvas, you can:

  • Display and manipulate complex data sets or visual models across multiple screens, giving teams the ability to compare and analyze different sets of data at once.
  • Interact with data in real-time, moving graphs, images, and live screenshares across the room to create deeper insights and enable team collaboration.

Pro Tip: Use xCanvas to show different layers or perspectives of your data on each display. For example, one wall might show real-time data streams, while another displays historical trends, giving your team a full view of the data landscape.

5. Executive Briefing Centers

Executive Briefing Centers are all about high-impact presentations and decision-making. ThinkHub xCanvas provides a powerful platform to:

  • Create immersive, multimedia presentations that span across several displays, making your briefings more engaging and visually impactful.
  • Allow executives to compare multiple data sets, reports, or forecasts side by side, enhancing their ability to make informed, strategic decisions.

Pro Tip: Organize your briefing session by splitting the xCanvas into different groups—one for KPIs, another for financial data, and a third for projections. Display all three groups as your default, and move between them as needed. This creates a visually clean and efficient space for decision-making.

6. Product Development Labs

Product Development Labs benefit from xCanvas’s ability to display and interact with a large volume of content at once. Teams can:

  • Work on product designs, 3D models, and prototypes on different displays, allowing for simultaneous development and review of multiple product components.
  • Move CAD designs, blueprints, and prototypes between displays for real-time adjustments and discussions.

Pro Tip: Use one section of the xCanvas for current iterations and another for future ideas or feedback, enabling a fluid development process that captures both immediate needs and long-term innovations.

7. Innovation Labs

Innovation Labs are built on the idea of creating, testing, and refining new concepts—and xCanvas provides the tools to support this creative process. Teams can:

  • Use xCanvas to display large-scale brainstorming sessions, research, and data side by side, fostering collaborative innovation.
  • Rearrange ideas, whiteboards, and data from one display to another, enabling iterative feedback and testing in real-time.

Pro Tip: Start by creating groups for research and trends, initial concepts, and prototypes or experiments. Display all three groups simultaneously, and move between them as needed during your workflow. This structured setup helps keep the innovation lab focused while still allowing space for creative flexibility.
