Email pitches come in day and night from lesser known Chinese DV-LED display manufacturers, showing me their versions of displays and infrastructure. I look at them, but it’s rare when there’s anything new to write about. And really, most of the people e-mailing seem to want me to batch-order product. […]
This is a nice example of using flexible direct view LED modules to work with curves and make a relatively small video wall visually interesting. It is in the lobby of the Jakarta-based AV systems integrator V2 Indonesia, and is using the flexible product from Hong Kong-based Lighthouse. […]
The global architecture, design, and planning firm Gensler puts an understandable premium on design, so it’s no surprise the reception area of the company’s Austin, TX office has a cool, very different LED video wall as its centerpiece. The display provides the Austin team with an ability to set the office vibe, but also work as a valuable tool. […]
This is not the most exciting use case I’ve seen for digital signage, but as noted endless times, useful and efficient is often more meaningful than Wow Factor jobs. In this case, it’s a horse auction company that uses DV LED screens, BrightSign boxes, and live data feeds to show the state of affairs on auction days. The set-up is at Tattersalls auction houses in the UK and Ireland. […]
This is the very latest public art piece developed for that big wrap-around Samsung LED display in a Seoul shopping district. The video, like previous ones, was created by the Seoul digital shop D’strict. Like the others, it’s amazing. […]
The 16:9 report of direct view LED that was released at the start of the week makes the assertion that the display tech is now mainstreamed, and here’s a good example of that. These are images from train station platforms in the Czech Republic that are using fine pixel pitch outdoor LED for departure time displays. […]
There’s a lost in translation element to this video about the use of multiple big LED displays at this commercial development in Guangzhou, China, but even though I’m not totally clear on what’s going on with the “cave” part of the project, it is inarguably impressive. […]
The Live! Casino and Hotel Philadelphia in Guess Where, PA is in preview opening stage, with a formal opening in mid-February. Among the many features of the new resort property, which is over in the same area where all the pro sports venues are located, is a big sweep of direct view LED embedded in a canopy at the main entry. […]
This (at end of post) is a very good conceptual video from LG that shows how its transparent LED film could be used in large private and public spaces like shopping malls and airports. There are, unfortunately, more conceptual visuals out there from LG than actual installs, it seems, but they do exist – like this one in Singapore and this one in Sweden. […]
Netflix was one of the first companies to make direct view LED the key visual feature of a headquarters lobby, and now the streaming media giant is using microLED as its primary display in a special screening room. […]
The Jan. 2021 Direct View LED Special Report by Sixteen:Nine is now available for free download. There are no strings attached. […]
That promised direct view LED Special Report will be out early Monday, available as a free, no-strings, no registration download. The 50-plus page report, in PDF format, is a follow-up on the original Special Report done by Sixteen:Nine and released in early 2018. Much has changed, and that’s reflected in the material. […]
This is a nice indoor and outdoor LED set-up at by the Austrian bank Raiffeisenlandesbank, in Vienna. A half-round vertical stack over the entry is peppered with LED tiles in abstract array, and that theme carries inside the street-level glass windows, where there are more LEDs in equally unstructured patterns. […]
The Seoul-based creative shop D’strict has activated another crazy anamorphic creative piece for that big Samsung DV-LED display in a main Seoul shopping area. I’m not sure how to even describe this. D’strict says it is a “kitschy and unique experience of everyday stuff turning soft. […]
Sony Corporation of America is making a $1.7 million product donation to the the International African American Museum (IAAM) that’s going up in Charleston, SC, with the key component being a 32 foot wide fine pitch LED video wall. […]
