That's nice!
To begin with, you will need about 30 devices
I imagine that all of them are receiving the same unique content by multicast (it mixes pre-made video with real preview from a cam)
This content has some time of timestamp for synchronisation, and devices are "reasonably well" time synchronized
Each one is aware of its position, dimensions and orientation
So each one only displays the piece that corresponds to their relative position window.
The content creation process, being aware of the final subwindow distribution and taking advantage of it, makes a part of the magic.

I have more than 30 devices.
any example for this ?

I have more than 30 devices.
No examples that I know of.
You'd need to either build a custom lib for it, or modify the source code of a player library that supports streaming, in order to display only the chosen part of the decoded stream with the given orientation/scaling (perhaps there are totally different approaches that I don't know...)
So in my opinion it wouldn't be very very difficult, but it requires "a bit" of work

To me it looks more like a "split screen" scenario. Like you use several TV's to build a big screen. Of course you need to calibrate the animation to "fit" into the screen where it is needed.
Here you see an example with different screensizs. Look's similar to me.
