A Shenzhen company called Nexnovo sent me pix, tech details and a video about a transparent LED mesh wall on the corner of a building in Tokyo, and I am scratching my head wondering why the job was done like this. […]
Guest Post: Joni Schmeichel, Daktronics Joni Schmeichel Recently, we have seen an increase in interest around Federal Communications Commission (FCC) compliance, and for good reason.

Leyard is at the 2017 National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) Show this week in Las Vegas, showing a fine pixel pitch LED video wall that supports multi-touch interactivity.

The connector cables and fiddly bits seem to be going or gone from the latest generations of indoor LED displays. This is the back of an AOTO display that was in the company’s booth at InfoComm China.
