As the size of a venue or the amount of ambient light in a venue increases, so does the demand for ANSI lumens, the accepted measure of projector brightness. It’s exceedingly simple: A bigger room demands a projector with a more powerful light engine. Unfortunately, there’s not a linear increase in the price of a projector as its brightness notches upward. As you go up, each additional jump requires a bigger investment. There’s a supply and demand explanation: the brighter the projector model, the fewer units manufactured. For this article, we’ve defined large-venue projectors as those models rated at 6000 ANSI lumens or greater.
But the good news is that the manufacturers are saying that sales of their high-brightness models are staying strong in an extremely tough economic environment. That’s probably because even though large-venue models remain expensive relative to less-bright choices, the entire projector market has enjoyed a precipitous drop in prices over the past decade. As usual, we have technological progress and fierce competition to thank for that.
“While the basic physics behind producing light from a light source and putting it on a display device is still the same, the efficiencies, power levels, and display device capabilities have steadily improved,” says George Tsintzouras, director of product management for business products at Christie Digital Systems. He says that a projector that could output 10,000 lumens five years ago would weigh at least 120lbs. Now, Christie offers a 55lb. projector that puts out 11,500 lumens.
This article surveys the choices available to systems integrators who need to specify a large-venue projector. Of course, a projection screen stands (or hangs) at the end of any projected video signal chain. With that in mind, we share the perspectives of several manufacturers of projection screens: How big do their big screens get, and what types of screen materials are buyers of large-venue projectors selecting?
Late last year, Barco debuted the RLM-W6, a 3-chip DLP projector that the company describes as “the world’s first 3-chip DLP projector that comes with a single-chip DLP price tag.” (Pricing information was not available at press time.) It’s a 6000-lumen model, so it occupies the lower tier of the company’s high-brightness space. Barco notes that the WUXGA-resolution (1920×1200) RLM-W6 consumes 33 percent less power than comparable projectors and is considerably quieter. Barco’s free Projector Toolset software, which manages multiple Barco projectors across a network, is compatible with the RLM-W6.
If performance outshines cost considerations for a large-venue projector, Barco offers its XLM HD30 projector, the company’s brightest model, with a light output of 30,000 center lumens thanks to its 6.3kW Xenon lamp. With a native widescreen aspect ratio and native 2048×1080 resolution, the XLM HD30 features a sealed DMD engine and a high contrast ratio (at least 1600:1). Built to work around the clock, the XLM HD30 projector is a sturdy single-box/cabinet projector.
Barco also offers the CLM HD8, a cost-effective, compact 8000-lumen DLP projector with full HD (1920×1080) resolution. It’s priced in the same range as high-brightness LCD projectors.
With its dual-lamp configuration, the BenQ SP920P outputs 6000 lumens and claims a 2000:1 contrast ratio. The SP920P uses Coolux’s morphing software for projecting large, complex public displays such as 360-degree domes, spheres, and unconventional forms. It is available from BenQ at one-third the previous cost of a projector with such capability, according to the company. BenQ claims its SP920P exemplifies the way innovative engineering can keep projection possibilities looking great while staying affordable.
The Canon Realis LV-7585 multimedia projector has its lens positioned in the center for ease of placement during ceiling-mount installation. The LV-7585 relies on liquid crystal on silicon (LCoS) technology to produce 6500 ANSI lumens of brightness. The model features a side-loading, easy-access replacement lamp and an autowinding filter system, which automatically winds forward to expose a new, clean section of filter. The LV-7585 offers the flexibility of using its standard 1.3X Canon Optics zoom lens with power lens shift (horizontal and vertical) or any of four optional interchangeable Canon lenses. The optional LV-NI02 network imager enables users to send presentations to the LV-7585 via the network while enabling a variety of network control, monitoring, and image-projection functions.
Last fall Christie Digital Systems introduced its brightest projector, the Roadie HD+35K, a 3-DLP, 2048×1080 model that puts out 32,500 ANSI lumens. The projector has a split-body design with a separate switching-lamp ballast. The Roadie HD+35K includes a rear air-exhaust hood for improved stacking.
The market for what once was called “large venue projectors” is rapidly changing as the technology evolves, prices come down, and large flatpanel displays are increasingly considered competitors….
Christie claims that its brightest, most cost-efficient 3LCD large-venue projector, the Christie LX1500, is the world’s brightest projector in its class, delivering 15,000 lumens via a four-lamp, 3LCD optical engine. The LX1500 combines native XGA resolution and 2000:1 contrast ratio with the latest 10-bit image processing. The LX1500 is a body-only format projector; 11 lenses are available with throw ratios from 0.8:1 to 9.0:1.
The new Lightning 45-1080p (30,000 ANSI lumens and 2000:1 contrast ratio) projector from Digital Projection International (DPI) includes DPI’s Intelligent Lens Memory (ILM) feature, which allows the projector to store specific lens zoom, shift, and focus values to up to 10 preset positions. The Lightning 45-1080p incorporates DPI’s CoolTek engineering, which ensures the projector delivers high-lumen performance with low power consumption and thermal and noise output.
In addition to its 3-chip 3D offerings, DPI is offering two active 3D projectors in its single-chip projector lineup: the iVision sx+ 3D, which is equipped with a standard zoom lens, and the iVision sx+ W-3D, which is equipped with a short-throw fixed lens. At the 3-chip level, DPI’s new Titan 3D product range is composed of eight distinct projectors (including the Titan 1080p Dual 3D) featuring Texas Instruments’ 3-chip DLP technology with fast-transit pixels for smooth grayscale and improved contrast. The Titan 3D product line offers brightnesses up to 9000 ANSI lumens and contrast ratios up to 5000:1. For active 3D applications demanding the highest lumen performance, DPI’s new Lightning 3D offers the same source compatibility and imaging capabilities as the Titans while producing up to 21,000 ANSI lumens and 4000:1 contrast.
The Dukane ImagePro 8950P large-venue LCD projector uses three 1.3in. polysilicon inorganic TFTs, puts out 7500 lumens through selectable lenses, and features networkable control capabilities. With a 2500:1 contrast ratio, 10-bit full digital video processing, and a filter life of 10,000 hours, the 8950P gives you XGA resolution (1024×768), ultrawide-range lens shift (2.7 screens vertical and 2.2 screens horizontal), and six bayonet-style lens options.
In addition, Dukane’s ImagePro 8952P is a 7000-lumen model with long-life inorganic LCD optics, a mechanical shutter for Blank mode, SXGA (1400×1080) resolution, versatile connectivity, and powered lens shift and powered focusing. Finally, the company’s ImagePro 8951P brings most of the same features with a 6500 lumens output.
During CES, Epson introduced its brightest large-venue projector model to date. The PowerLite Pro Z8050WNL offers 7000 ANSI lumens, a step above its cousin the Z8000WUNL, which offers 6000 lumens. If resolution is more important to you than brightness, however, the older Z8000WUNL (1920×1200 native resolution) trumps the newer model (1280×800). Both models offer 5000:1 contrast ratios, dual lamps, and are liquid-cooled. Six different lenses are available, including a rear-projection option. According to Epson, the two 3LCD projectors can be installed up to 30 degrees off-axis horizontally and 10 degrees off-axis vertically.
The LCD panels and polarizers in the Hitachi CP-SX12000 (1400×1050 resolution) output 7000 lumens and are made of inorganic, UV-resistant materials, resulting in a longer operating life, the company says. The Projector Management Application (PJMan) loaded in the CP-SX12000 allows users to monitor and control multiple projectors over a LAN. A network bridge (serial pass-through) allows users to send RS-232 commands to the projector via the Ethernet commands pass-through, enabling control of external devices such as TV tuners and visual presenters.
Hitachi also offers the CP-WX11000, a large-venue projector that provides 6500 lumens and WXGA resolution (1366×800). Its aspect ratio of 17:10 matches that of today’s most popular widescreen laptops. The CP-WX11000’s 2500:1 contrast ratio and mechanical iris are controlled automatically to ensure the ideal image contrast and depth perspective during both bright and dark scenes.
If more brightness is needed, stacking is an option. According to John Glad, a product manager with Hitachi, the wide lens shift common to the company’s projectors makes them suitable for stacking. “With our lens shift,” he says, “we can either stack or put side by side and achieve the same results.”
The InFocus IN5534 large-venue projector features DLP DarkChip liquid-cooled DMD technology with InFocus’ own implementation of BrilliantColor. The projector has a brightness of 7000 lumens, WUXGA (1920×1200) resolution, and motorized lens adjustments for flexibility during installation. InFocus touts the IN5534’s legacy analog inputs as well as its comprehensive digital connectivity. Embedded wired and wireless DisplayLink ensures hassle-free plug-and-project connectivity over USB. Moreover, PC-free playback is possible via a standard USB stick with the InFocus LitePort.
The Mitsubishi XL6500U shines at 5000 lumens in XGA (1024×768) resolution using three 1.3in. inorganic LCD panels. The projector’s lamp is rated at 4000 hours when operated in lamp life-conserving Low mode. The XL6500U offers electronically controlled zoom, focus, and lens-shift adjustments in fast and step modes.
Last August, NEC released its NP4100W projector, a WXGA wide-aspect-ratio DLP design rated at 5500 ANSI lumens. Five optional bayonet-style lenses are available. The NP4100W’s Eco mode decreases fan noise and increases lamp life by up to 50 percent for a 3000-hour lamp life. Quick Power Off technology protects the lamp during cool down. A sealed, dust-resistant optical system enables better picture quality and reduces maintenance. An optional six-segment color wheel is available on the NP4100W for applications requiring especially rich color saturation. The NP4100W can function as either a dual- or single-lamp projector.
Slightly less bright than the NP4100W are NEC’s stackable 3LCD projectors. Put two together, however, and you’re well over 7000 lumens at the low end. The NP3250, NP3250W, NP2250 and NP1250 offer brightness ratings of 5000, 4000, 4200, and 3700 lumens respectively. NEC uses a camera and software system to align the stackable projectors’ images. “This system allows all convergence data to be stored on the projectors,” says Rich McPherson of NEC, “which means no matter what source you connect to the projectors, it will be bright and converged. Other systems require external hardware to do this.”
The Panasonic PT-D6000US takes single-chip DLP projection to a high brightness level of 6500 lumens and claims new levels of color reproduction (up to 145 percent of conventional models) with the aid of the newly engineered RGB Booster, Panasonic’s proprietary Vivid Color Control technology, and a newly engineered lamp modulation drive system. Image-processing circuits in the PT-D6000US analyze the video signal frequency range for each scene by extracting data on the distribution of high-, mid-, and low-frequency components, and they bring out fine details accordingly. Maintenance is simplified by the PT-D6000US’s autocleaning filter, which makes filter cleaning unnecessary for about 10,000 hours.
Norway’s projectiondesign offers its first 3-chip DLP projector, the F80, with 8000 ANSI lumens of brightness and a contrast ratio of up to 10,000:1. That rating is thanks to contrast-enhancement technologies that are unique to projectiondesign and a first for 3-chip DLP projectors, according to the company. Key features in the F80 include infinitely adjustable iris and aperture settings and motorized zoom, focus, and shift with memory for use in multiple settings with programmed calibration. The projector combines fixed and motorized optical filters for each color channel. Every lens for the F80 uses low-dispersion (LD) aspherical glass elements for high-quality focusing and sharpness, as well as high optical interfield contrast, resulting in very high perceived image quality.
Late last year projectiondesign added to its line the F35, a WQXGA-resolution (2560×1600) 6500-lumen model. “We have significantly raised the bar when it comes to number of pixels,” says projectiondesign’s Chris Axford, “though this comes without an increase in the imager (DMD) size. We are of course working closely with TI to secure the next step in resolution, but nothing is finalized as yet.” Projectiondesign says that the F35 WQXGA platform will come with a new range of projection lenses to optimize the output of the higher-resolution chipset.
Last December, the company also introduced a new blend/warp hardware product known as MIPS. Looking toward the future, projectiondesign is developing an LED light engine for its large-venue models. (At CEDIA this year, the company introduced an LED-lit single-DLP model.) LED promises purer color transmission and a significant leap in energy efficiency.
With the introduction of Texas Instruments’ 0.65in. WXGA DLP chip and 0.7in. XGA DLP chip, Sharp has been able to introduce what is considered a price-performance breakthrough in 3-chip DLP projection. The Sharp XG-P560W (5200 ANSI lumens, WXGA native resolution) and XG-P610X (6000 ANSI lumens, XGA native resolution) are priced at less than $15,000, including a standard motorized lens with horizontal and vertical lens shift. Several Sharp large-venue projectors (including the XG-P610X, XG-P560W and XG-PH70X) use an intelligent dual-lamp design in addition to offering two brightness modes (Full Brightness and Eco+Quiet). Dual lamps offer a brightness boost as well as redundancy: In the event that one of the lamps fails during the show, the second lamp continues to operate.
At the extreme high end, Sony employs silicon-crystal reflective technology in its SXRD line of projectors. The SRX-T420 model’s 21,000 lumens of brightness and 4K resolution (4096×2160) makes it appropriate for visualization, planetariums, dome theaters, and more. Sony actually manufactures the SXRD line’s imagers, as it does for its HTPS LCD models.
Aimed at more mainstream applications, the 3LCD VPL-FH300L projector is Sony’s first fixed-installation business projector featuring 2Kx1K resolution (2048×1080). The installation flexibility of Sony’s VPL-FH300L is enhanced with five lens options and the ability to tilt the projector freely on the vertical axis. This projector features a two-lamp system that uses two low-wattage lamps (275W) in an opposed layout to produce 6000 lumens.
Last year, ViewSonic launched its brightest projector, the 5000-lumen PJ1173, with a 1024×768 native resolution and a 1000:1 contrast ratio. The PJ1173 features manual zoom, horizontal and vertical keystone correction, and a remote with mouse control and laser pointer. The projector also includes features such as progressive scan and video noise reduction for smooth motion performance when viewing video or any kind of animation.
Most manufacturers of projection screens are seeing increased demand for larger screen sizes. This suggests that for many markets, the drop in high-end projector prices trumps the current economic recession.
In response to increased demand, Da-Lite added a Design Center module to its website, which focuses on large-venue screen design. “We are seeing a lot more requests for large screens and unique screens,” says Wendy Long of Da-Lite. “We have made large screens that are curved, cylindrical, star-shaped, dome-shaped, and all sorts of others.”
Manfred Freiberger of dnp has a similar view. “Dnp sees a general trend toward larger screens for almost all segments and for all applications,” he says. “The main driver for that is that large-venue projectors are becoming more affordable.”
Long says that 16’x9′ is a pretty typical size to couple with a large-venue projector that offers 8000 lumens of brightness. (Other manufacturers cite similar sizes.) For super-bright projectors and edge-blended projector systems, Da-Lite can go up to 39ft. wide for an electric screen or 90ft. for a fixed-frame screen.
The latest addition to Da-Lite‘s extensive line of motorized projection screens is Studio Electrol. With an extruded aluminum case, a gray finish, and screen sizes up to 32ft. wide, the Studio Electrol is well-suited for large-screen applications.
Danish manufacturer dnp says that with large-venue projectors, it typically matches its Supernova Infinity screen, a custom model. Its Supernova One, Supernova Core, and (soon) its Supernova Flex get as large as 120in. on a 16:9 diagonal; the Supernova Infinity is for larger screens. “It is a building-block screen that consists of screen panels that can be tiled to any size,” Freiberger says. “There is literally no size limitation—at least we haven’t found it yet.”
The Supernova line is a high-gain line that uses optical, rather than chemical, filters to enhance a projector’s perceived brightness. These filters reject ambient light and reflect only the light from the projector. Among seven filter layers, the most significant is the vertical light-rejecting filter. Two screen materials are available; according to dnp, customers buying larger screens often prefer the better viewing angles of Supernova 08-85 material over the better brightness of Supernova 20-20.
Draper‘s new StageScreen for fixed and portable applications can be as large as 60’x18′. The company also goes up to 24ft. wide with its new Paragon/Series V motorized screen with tab tensioning, and 28ft. wide with the Paragon/Series E motorized screen (with a textile-backed viewing surface). According to the company, Draper offers custom sizes up to 80’x30′ in a fixed screen and motorized screens up to 28ft. wide. For front projection, Draper says that the most popular surface remains a basic white product, either the M1300 or Flexible Matte White. “Large applications may use multiple projectors across a single screen where brightness uniformity, blending, or edge-matching are important factors to address,” Draper’s Jim Hoodlebrink says. “This is why the uniform Matte White material is used.” This increased demand in large venues has also spurred Draper to introduce a new low-gain, flexible rear-projection material that allows for improved uniformity in applications where multiple projectors are being used.
Elite Screens makes its VMAX Plus4 electric projection screens with seamless material up to 380in. (on the 16:9 diagonal) and stocks available product up to 400in. for immediate shipment. Elite’s fixed-frame screens are available up to 206in. diagonal. Like Draper, Elite says that Matte White is the most common surface for big screens. “They are generally used with a more powerful projector,” Elite’s David Rodgers says. “There is light control in conference halls, and [matte-white material] has uniform diffusion to present a well-lit image to the eyes of the audience regardless of whether they are directly in front of the presentation or off to the side.” For environments with higher ambient light, such as houses of worship, ultrahigh-gain material (such as Elite’s Starbright7) with contrast filtering is popular. The material creates a narrow half-gain cone that looks great at a distance, Rodgers says.
Vutec offers a wide range of projection screens that are appropriate matches for large-venue projectors. At InfoComm 2009, the company introduced Fusion-HD, which can be designed to fit any application with a preassembled frame or can be suspended from any ceiling structure. The acrylic screen line has a 180-degree viewing angle and rejects a high percentage of ambient light. Vutec also offers a fixed-screen choice called SilverStar, which the company claims offers six times the brightness of comparable screens. Its Lectric II and Vision XTC retractable motorized in-ceiling mounted screens disappear into the ceiling or wall for dust-free storage with the touch of a button.

For conferences and product launches, lectures and entertainment; the common requirement is big screen delivery. In auditoriums, concert halls and exhibition spaces, touching the emotions of audiences is often a key objective so ensuring they get a clear view of event content is critical. Supporting the big screen presentation, where content contains more detailed information such as in lectures or conferences, repeater screens might be necessary or even for content to be shared to audiences’ personal devices.
Reliability and longevity is not up for compromise with equipment often located high up at the ceiling with limited access for maintenance. Flexibility and remote management capability ensure best installation success and adaptable usage scenarios. Some venues such as conferencing facilities and university lecture theatres benefit from fixed AV installations, whereas others such as exhibition spaces, concert halls, art houses and museums where use cases are varied, require more flexibility. Rental & Staging companies are big users of AV equipment within this sphere, demanding highly robust products which are easy to set up and de-rig. Often early adopters of new technologies, AV rental companies are looking to deliver the wow factor to their clients with immersive visual experiences.

An LCD video wall is a large visualization surface that is built from multiple LCD displays (also known as ‘tiles’). These individual displays are designed specifically for use in these applications, and differ highly from normal television sets. The biggest differences are the bezel width, the mounting system, and the reliability. Normal television sets are designed to play a few hours per day, these specific panels are expected to play much more. Often even 24/7. And because the environments in which these video walls are deployed are sometimes critical, the uptime needs to be as high as possible.
Especially important for video walls, is a perfect calibration. This is not only restricted to a single panel. More critical, is that the color and brightness settings of the complete wall match. This means that the values of all panels need to be synchronized with the surrounding displays. If not, even the slightest deviation in color or brightness will make the wall seem out of balance.
High brightness: The light output of LCD video walls is generally quite high. Especially compared to LED-lit rear-projection cubes, LCD scores better. This allows the use in most lighting conditions - even in daylight.
Low real estate needs: Rear-projection cubes are quite deep, and (unless front access is available) need a rear maintenance area. As such, they need a lot of real estate space. LCD video walls only take the place on the wall of the panel depth and the wall mounting. This is usually less than 20 cm / 7.9”.
Direct view LED displays and projectors are great solutions for large venues. With so many options and features out there, however, it can be difficult to know which is best for you. With factors like price, picture quality, and maintenance, this short guide is here to help you decide.
Read on to learn how projectors and direct view LEDs can solve your large venue problems and be a positive investment for your venue no matter what you choose.
Setting up the perfect large venue display does not have to be complicated. Still, it is important to know which to choose between projectors or video wall displays.
Video wall displays are a newer technology, but not by much. Common in large venues like shopping centers or stadiums, these large-scale displays are made of multi-monitor setups. Recently, direct view LED video walls allow for a single device consisting of a single screen of interconnected monitor panels for a bezel-free and easy-to-use display.
Direct view LEDs are smaller in image production size than projectors. Despite their large size averaging from 130” to 165” in display length, they cannot project outside of the actual device. It cannot beat out multiple projectors.
That means if your large venue is, indeed, very large, then a projector could be the best solution for you. Even multiple projectors would be better, allowing for displays that can fill the entire room.
Projectors are great for size. But they can lack in picture quality. It is also important that if you are wanting to plan events where videos or pictures will be taken, the refresh rate will become a problem. This is often why photos or videos of computer monitors may have distortions in them.
Direct view LEDs have beautiful picture quality with high refresh rates. In fact, it’s unbeatable. LED screens, in comparison to LCD, give sharper and realistic colors. This means they are perfect for almost all cases. Userful.com explains the difference between LED and LCD video wall if you want to learn more.
Direct view LEDs seem scary, but they are one of the easiest to install. Since they are bezel-free multi-monitor displays, they are installed panel by panel with relative ease.
Projectors are not ideal for every environment. Their image quality can be altered by things out of your control. Projectors are best for indoor solutions where they can be calibrated and left alone. But they still will require some regular maintenance and readjustment.
Direct view LEDs are not altered by environments and lighting. In fact, they are made as solutions for these specific issues. With high brightness and resolution, they are perfect for indoor and outdoor. Once you have installed it, you are ready to go. And thanks to a ridiculously high refresh rate on LED panels, these displays are ideal for filming and photography without any flickering or discoloration.
Projectors are not the most prestigious technologies out there. Many people now associate them with classrooms and disgruntled teachers trying unsuccessfully to calibrate them mid-lesson. While this amazing technology is cheap and accessible for many people, it may not give your large venue the oomph you are looking for.
Direct view LEDs give you the feeling of prestige. These screens produce massive yet beautiful images that are stunning. Any customer or client who walks into your venue will feel spoiled by the investment you made for them. Never be afraid to invest for the long term and research how to make the best of your purchases.
Projectors are a budget-friendly solution for large venues. With capabilities to project on surfaces both large and small, for the price it is worth it. We estimated the rough average cost of a laser projector is between $2,000 to $3,000, though more expensive models can run over $10,000. This does not include replacement piece costs, however, so there may be hidden or unexpected costs over the device’s lifetime.
In contrast, direct view LEDs are more expensive. On average, these displays can cost anywhere from $50k to $350k before installation fees! This price is justified by many of their more advanced features, but sticker shock can be a difficult hurdle for large venues unable to afford a top-end display.
Overall, if you find yourself struggling with a budget, you should choose a projector. For the price point, quality, and functionality it will get the job done.
Overall, the direct view LED may be a better solution for your large venue. However, each situation is different. For example, the biggest factor to consider may be price, as projectors are a budget-friendly solution with good results. But keep in mind, all solutions should be long-term, not short-term.

The League of Legends World Championship (commonly abbreviated as Worlds) is one of the most well-known esports events in the world. It has been successfully held for 11 seasons since 2010.
The 2021 S11 finals, as an annual esports carnival feast, not only gathers a large number of players offline, but also attracts global audiences online. The game attracted hundreds of millions of viewers to watch live online.
A large number of spectators and a high degree of attention put forward extremely high requirements on the operation of the event, and there is no room for sloppiness.
Compared with regular competition events, the intuitiveness of e-sports events is weak, and the audience must use the large display screen to watch the entire game normally.
With a delay of less than 2 frames at the receiving end, during the live event, the fierce game scene can be synchronized smoothly in real-time without stuttering, and there will be also no scan line in the image captured and transmitted to the outfield. This ensures a consistent viewing experience for both online and offline audiences.
Even for high-end LCD displays, there will be a 3-5ms delay in the response time of the screen, and there will still be tailing and ghosting when playing intense motion pictures. It greatly affects the audience’s immersive look and feel.
LED lamp itself has ultra-fast response speed, and the LED display used for e-sports has higher requirements, which needs to reach 144fps high frame rate, at least 3840Hz high refresh rate, low latency, nanosecond response speed.
Different from traditional competitive competitions, in e-sports competitions, the focus of the audience’s viewing is not the player’s operation scene, but the wonderful picture feedback in the game. This puts forward very high requirements for the presentation of the picture: First, a large screen that can support the viewing of the entire stadium is necessary; and a screen that can be viewed on 4 sides needs to be very easy to build;
The LED display must have the characteristics of infinite seamless splicing, and the support for 8K is more perfect without being limited by the size. However, LCD and OLED display technologies cannot meet the large-size high-end commercial market and display under 8K ultra-high resolution. The effect is not satisfactory
Therefore, during the live broadcast, the stability requirements of the display products are very high, and there should be no sudden situations such as flickering or failure to light up in the middle, so as to avoid adverse effects on the on-site performance of the players and the watching experience of the live audience.
LED has the brightness that LCD can’t reach, and can even surpass the brightness of OLED. The brightness can reach up to 1500nit, even if the stage lighting is strong, the picture can be perfectly presented;
