Hydra Main Screen
Example:
The Screen shown is from the SBR Airport, they used a simple bitmap overlay and then
used the Hydra Graphics Editor to place Plasma TV's at their physical locations
in the terminal. SBR also used Hydra to control their Media Center's Head-end Devices.
You can create your own layout within Hydra or import a graphic as
and overlay, and then place
Device's and annotate them, it's up to you.
Hydra is a an extremly flexible system, adding clients is as simple as loading a
profile file. A Profile File contains all setup information for the program including
