S-Series™ Media Server: Compact Power for Pro AV

What is the 7thSense S-Series™?  

The 7thSense S-Series™ is our smallest professional media server, but don’t let its small size fool you about the power it packs. Built to deliver ultra high-quality video for museums, attractions, live events, art installations and immersive environments, the S-Series™ is designed for projects where you want big visual impact but do not have room for bulky hardware. 

Even though it's roughly the size of a paperback book, the S-Series™ delivers performance you would normally expect from large rack mounted systems. It plays 8K and multi-channel 4K uncompressed video, so content appears exactly as intended: sharp, smooth and accurate in colour. 


Why the S-Series™ exists 

Many installations face practical limitations. There may not be enough space for large equipment. Noise levels might need to stay low. Power availability can be limited. Sometimes hardware must fit inside a kiosk, behind a display or discreetly inside an exhibit. 

The S-Series™ is designed to solve these issues. It is compact, quiet and highly energy efficient, using less power than many everyday displays, while still delivering professional playback performance. 


What it can do 

Despite its small footprint, the S-Series™ can: 

  • Play several independent channels of 4K video at once 

  • Handle uncompressed media with no visible compression artefacts 

  • Support interactive and real time content from tools such as Unreal Engine, Unity, Notch and TouchDesigner 

  • Sync playback across multiple servers for larger shows 

  • Fit neatly into small spaces such as kiosks, cabinets, touring cases or behind screens 

It also supports warp and blend for projection mapping, NDI preview for remote monitoring and options for video capture. 


Where it’s used 

The S-Series™ is a strong choice for: 

  • Museum exhibits 

  • Projection mapped experiences 

  • LED walls and architectural lighting displays 

  • Touring productions and live events 

  • Interactive or generative art installations 

  • Mixed media environments that combine real time and prerendered content 

Anywhere that needs high quality visuals in tight or challenging spaces can benefit from the S-Series™. 


What makes it special 

The S-Series™ stands out because it brings high end visual performance to places where traditional media servers simply cannot fit. You can carry it in one hand, install it almost anywhere, and still achieve the kind of output expected from much larger systems. 


Key strengths include: 

  • Ultra compact design 

  • Very low power consumption 

  • Quiet operation 

  • Uncompressed playback quality 

  • Support for generative engines 

  • Long term reliability with global certifications 


In short, it offers the capability of a large system in a remarkably small format.
