ViaDirect has then supported the installation in full coordination with the Futuroscope and TMM Communication teams.
Daily software support and general maintenance are also coordinated between ViaDirect and TMM Communication.
Futuroscope requirements being very unique, ViaDirect and its partners have drawn and manufactured custom-made outdoors totems e dynamics displays to best suit Futuroscope wishes and needs.
