LG Expands Commitment to Leadership in LED Signage Displays (Part 1)
A few weeks ago, during the InfoComm 2020 Connected virtual trade show, LG Business Solutions USA announced the introduction of over three dozen indoor and outdoor LED Signage displays – impactful and cost-effective displays that are ideal for commercial applications including retail stores, restaurants, conference rooms, hotels, theaters, museums, sports fields, stadiums and more.
The 46 models, which span LG’s 10 different LED Signage categories, will all be available in 2020, and 19 models are shipping now. With pixel pitches of 0.9mm to 16mm, these LG LED Signage displays deliver high brightness capabilities and excellent off-axis viewing quality, with low power and physical infrastructure requirements. Such characteristics make LG’s LED Signage displays the optimal solutions for rooms with a lot of natural light, rooms where off-axis viewing is critical, projects that require 24/7 visibility and reliability and for clients that want to reduce energy usage.
LED Signage is transforming how commercial venues think about their digital messaging and design today. A key advantage of LED Signage over traditional displays is the ability to break out of the traditional 16:9 aspect ratio with custom displays built in virtually any size or shape.
There’s a ton to cover so we’ll do this in two blog posts. We’ll begin by looking at some of the indoor models.
Cable-less Fine Pitch Indoor LED Signage
The new LSAA Series offers cable-less connections between LED cabinets, replacing cables with snap-in connections along the module’s frame, and the robust 4-in-1 LED package technology is more durable than standard individual surface-mount LED technology. The LSAA Series also features webOS™ Signage 4.1, and is available in 0.9mm, 1.2mm or 1.5mm pixel pitches, perfect for up-close environments such as meeting rooms.
Cable-less Indoor MicroLED Signage
Also cable-less between cabinets, the new LSAB Series MicroLED Signage displays utilize a 50,000:1 contrast ratio to increase the display’s native black surface area from 59 to 93 percent, delivering deep black levels. The 0.9mm and 1.2mm pixel-pitch will be available with the webOS Signage 4.1 platform. This MicroLED display is ideal for close-up 4K or 8K viewing in places such as control rooms, broadcasting studios, home cinema and flagship stores.
Flexible, Curvable Fine Pitch Premium Indoor LED Signage
Available now, LG’s LAPE Series is a flexible, curvable LED Signage solution available in 1.5mm, 2.0mm and 2.5mm pixel pitches for a variety of viewing distances and installation environments. The LAPE displays offer webOS Signage 4.0 and are composed of flexible modules that curve to form either convex or concave displays, including 360-degree displays and designs that bend around corners.
All-in-One Indoor LED Screens
Combining the vibrant picture quality of LED with the hassle-free connectivity of all-in-one displays, these LG models are specifically designed to be mobile. The existing 130-inch LAAF Series model features a 1.5mm pixel pitch and 500 nits of brightness, and it includes innovative Immersive Surface Sound that uses 36 4.5 Watt Exciter speakers in the actual display modules (no external speakers needed). The new LAEB Series’ 136-inch model has a 1.56mm pixel pitch and 800 nits of brightness. Both models have Full HD resolution and include built-in HDMI, DisplayPort and USB inputs. A rolling stand is available from LG as an optional purchase.
Stay tuned. In our next post we’ll cover the rest of the new LG LED Signage offerings for 2020.
