December 2, 2011 by guest author, rAVe Publications

Planar Systems has introduced what it calls the Planar Silhouette , a “video display sculpture” the company publicly spotlighted  on Nov. 30 at the Avant Gallery in Miami Beach, Florida, in connection with the weeklong Design Miami art event.

The Planar Silhouette display, which towers over 10-feet tall, provides a new solution for architects, designers and their clients, to elicit an emotional response through imagery and form.

The arrays of LCD screens are configured in an array that forms a sort of a “flexible digital canvas” that can produce make a wall of color and motion stretching 18 feet wide.
