The Pixel Viewer consists of at least a two machine setup, one configured to be the controller and the other set to be the viewer. From the one/multiple controller machine a Surf Request sends a command via a network connection (either over a LAN or cross-over cable directly to the other machine) to the listening viewer. On receiving the command the viewer exits it's Idle Mode and opens the requested media file, be it video, image, song, or web page.

Imagine an art museum with a kiosk terminal, titled "Virtual Art." Mounted on a pillar before a large scale flat plasma screen a basic 12'' touch screen kiosk awaits its next user. Once activated the 12'' kiosk displays a database driven thumbnail view of an array of classic art pieces. The user then selects the desired piece and instantly on the plasma screen, under incredible high resolution, he sees sections of the Sixteenth Chapel.

This is but one use of the amazing capabilities behind the Pixel Viewer.
