AV accessory maker Gefen has created a solution for integrating video systems using displays with different native resolutions by introducing the Toolbox HD 1080p Scaler, a breakout box that automatically scales up or down any high-definition signal to the exact maximum resolution of the connected display. The unit bypasses the built-in scalers found in monitors, HDTVs and other equipment that often do an inferior job of conversion, and avoids having to scale all video displays to the lowest-common-denominator resolution for multiple video displays.
