Watch A Video Of What’s Described As The Largest Transparent LED Film Install In Europe
December 21, 2022 by Dave Haynes
This is what LG says is the largest transparent LED film installation in Europe, running atop a set of windows at the entry to the Wales Millennium Centre in Cardiff, the main arts center for that country.
I couldn’t find much on the way of detail, but you can see both the impact and the challenges of this tech from the video below.
On one hand, a long ribbon of motion media above the entry doors – using big, bold fonts – is hard to miss from the nearby sidewalk, plaza and roadways. But as you can see from the video, even with an overhead canopy blocking direct sunlight, there is a serious issue with reflection on the glass.
It would be nice to know what the brightness NITs are, and the resolution? Dosen’t look like enough NITs to get through the sun at the bottom half of the screen. Displaying text only on digital signs is a waste of the technology. Drives me nuts when my clients operate their digital displays with text only! Robust Content is King
Tightest available pitch for this product is 14mm, so graphics kinda need to be big and blocky, I think. There’s also a 24mm version.
2100 nts, a brighter version will be available in the near future.
This was installed by our team over the summer of 2022.
The brightness isn’t an issue when viewing in real life – just difficult to get video of it.
