in /by

LED packaging technology is constantly being improved in response to the increasing demand for small pitch LED screens, such as Mini LED and Micro LED, that can deliver ultra-high quality image display. 

Due to its inherent deficiencies in protection and point source display performance, the initial SMD technology is no longer able to fulfill the application of all scenarios. COB technology, as a newcomer, has not yet achieved mass production due to high technical costs, poor color separation, and the inability to mix lights. In this context, the GOB LED display technology, which has been improved from the SMD packaging process, has come into being.

SMD vs COB vs GOB LED Technology

● What is SMD LED Display?

Surface Mount Device, often known as SMD, is the packaging of lamp cups, brackets, chips, leads, epoxy resin and other materials into different sizes of LED beads, which are then directly soldered on printed circuit boards (PCBs).
Due to the lack of protection on the surface of SMD-packaged LED screens, the lamp beads are exposed to the outside environment, which raises the danger of color shift, the failure and damage of LED beads.

● What is COB LED Display?

By encapsulating the LED chip directly on the PCB rather than the LED lamp, Chip on Board (COB) is an advancement of SMD technology that lowers the potential risks that SMD LED displays may have. However, because of the high technical cost and the challenge of maintaining color uniformity and chromatic aberration, COB LED screens are currently difficult to mass produce.

● What is GOB LED Display?

Glue on Board (GOB) is a new revolutionary packaging method that outperforms SMD technology by using glue on the PCB to encapsulate the LED modules. Essentially, GOB LED display technology is an analog of module packaging. It uses a proprietary transparent epoxy adhesive applied to the surface of PCB modules that have been soldered with thousands of SMD lamps to form a special shield. GOB display technology provides a solution to the LED beads protection.

The highest benefit of GOB LED displays over SMD is the high level of protection for the LED beads, which enables LED screens to adapt to any challenging environment and attain true moisture-proof, water-proof, dust-proof, impact-proof, and UV-proof properties. In contrast to the high-cost COB technology, GOB LED display not only achieves mass production at a lower cost but also successfully addresses issues like poor surface flatness, poor color separation and inability to mix lights of COB.

Advantages of GOB LED Display

  1. Superior Durability – waterproof, moisture resistant, dustproof, shockproof, UV resistant

Splashing water, moisture, or dust can easily enter and gather in the gaps of the LED module if the surface is left untreated and exposed to the outside environment. In addition to lowering the quality of the image display and making it more difficult to clean the LED display, this will also make the LED chips or beads more prone to damage. What’s worse, the LED chip is susceptible to accidental collision damage while being handled, which will result in display malfunction across the LED display screen. 

The transparent epoxy adhesive on the surface of the GOB LED displays can effectively shield the LED chips or beads from any harsh external elements like water, moisture, dust, and UV radiation. Moreover, the high density of the glue makes the GOB display screen shockproof, greatly reducing the risk of potential breakage due to collision during installation and delivery.

  1. Excellent thermal conductivity extends service life

In addition to superior transparency, GOB LED display screens also have excellent thermal conductivity, which means that the heat generated by the LED units drains more quickly, significantly prolonging the life of the LED display.

The integration of pop culture, global investors, brands, live streaming and social sharing has driven the explosive growth of the esports industry. Various esports games have then gradually established league mechanisms, bringing new market opportunities for other industries.

Among them, esports live streaming, as one of the most important parts of esports events, has guided a new direction for the LED display screen industry and promoted the development of esports LED displays.

With the inclusion of esports in the 2022 Asian Games in Hangzhou, LED display screens have an unparalleled advantage in esports live streaming thanks to their ultra-high definition, 5G + 8K, multi-screen interactivity, and other technology support.

In order to allow fans from any angle to enjoy the high-definition visual and fully experience the esports competition, the Hangzhou Asian Games Electronic Competition Venues installed 15 huge high-definition LED display screens for real-time live broadcast.

LCD vs LED vs OLED Screens for Esports

Since the presentation of real-time game images is the main focus of the display requirements in gaming competitions, there are tight criteria for the size and instant response of the display screen. More than that, in order to show the audience every aspect of the fight process, a huge screen with high brightness, contrast, and color saturation is also required.

LED, LCD, and OLED are the three most common display types on the market today. Despite having the finest image quality, OLED screens are too expensive for use in widespread commercial applications. As the most primitive display technology, LCD screens fall short of LED screens in terms of brightness, clarity, contrast, and endurance.

An ideal option for esports events is an LED display screen. They have high refresh rates, high definition, high contrast, and they can combine with high dynamic, high frame rate, and 3D virtual reality to achieve an immersive viewing experience. LED display screens are good at showing the audience synchronization of every detail in esports. Additionally, LEDs can precisely show the stunning visual effects of the game world because it has brightness and contrast on par with or even better than OLED.

Where is the LED Screen for Esports Applied?

The building of the tournament venue is obviously crucial given that the esports game is recognized as an international event. Each esports venue will be equipped with large esport LED screens.

According to the Esports Venue Construction Standards released by the China Stadium Association in 2017, esports venues are divided into four levels: A, B, C and D, and esports venues above the C level must be equipped with LED display screens. The standard also specifies that the venues should comprise at least one primary screen and numerous subsidiary screens to ensure that the audience can watch comfortably from all angles under normal circumstances.

Technical Requirements for LED Screens for Esports

As with conventional sports events, the emphasis of esports competition is live gaming and huge screen viewing. LED screens for esports in real-time presentation, network information dissemination, and ultra-high definition display, however, have more demanding technical requirements than those for general sports events.

1. Low latency, high frame rate and high refresh rate

In contrast to other display technologies, the LED screens for esports must broadcast the game screens in real time with a very low latency in order to fully immerse the audience in the intense action. To enable real-time flawless synchronization without scan lines and lagging, the delay at the receiving end of the LED display screen should be less than 2 frames.
On top of that, LED screens for esports require nanosecond screen response time, high frame rate of 144fps, and high refresh rate of at least 3,840Hz to guarantee a consistent viewing experience for both online and offline viewers. If the screen response time has a delay of 3-5 milliseconds, there are heavy shadows and trailing when playing intense sports visuals, greatly affecting the viewing experience of the audience.

2. Ultra high definition (UHD)

The most fundamental demand for LED display screens across all businesses is now HD display. However, HD display is crucial during an esports competition since it makes it easier for players and spectators to see every detail of the game, including fine textures, small symbols, and text.

High-definition displays for esports contests are now feasible thanks to advancements in fine pitch LED display technology. The smaller the pixel pitch a LED screen for esports has, the more LED pixels work on the LED module to produce HD images. For instance, a P1.8 LED display has at least 284,444 pixels square meters to produce high-definition images.

3. High brightness, high contrast and high grayscale

Since esports events are frequently hosted indoors, there will inevitably be intense stage lighting. As a result, the esports LED screens must feature high brightness, high contrast, and high grayscale in order to completely restore the original color of the source image and display as many details as possible for each game frame.

To further enhance image quality, this necessitates LED screens for esports to additionally support HDR10. With HDR10, you can distinguish a wider range of colors and depth between lighter and darker tones. HDR10 technology also combines the effects of dimming and altering brightness levels to produce game images at the greatest nits levels in addition to balancing color and contrast.

4. Large size and wide angle

As opposed to traditional sports competitions, what draws the audience’s attention is the exciting screen feedback during games, not the player’s action scenario. Therefore, the size of the LED screens for esports must be large enough, and the four side viewing screens must be very simple to construct. This necessitates flexible installation capabilities and seamless splicing in the esports LED displays.

Furthermore, the LED screens for esports need to have a wide angle so that everyone in the stadium can see the image on the screen well. The LED display screens that have a 160° horizontal viewing angle and a 140° vertical viewing angle can dramatically enhance the viewing experience for audiences in various locations on the scene.

5. Wide color gamut

The vibrant nature of the gaming industry further raises expectations for the color display capabilities of LED display screens. Wide Color Gamut is also required for LED screens for esports in order to enhance color accuracy and bring each game character to life for the audience.

Outdoor LED Display Solution: P1.5 and P1.8 LED Display

in /by

As the pandemic begins to wane, more and more outdoor activities are being done one after another, which is causing the outdoor display industry to once again see a resurgence. Since fine pixel pitch LED display is the current display technology, outdoor LED displays are gradually progressing toward ultra-high definition and multi-value added features.

The pixel pitch, or how closely the tiny light-emitting pixels can be arranged on the LED display, has become a major topic of discussion in recent years when it comes to high-definition displays for outdoor LED screens.

What is Pixel Pitch?

Pixel pitch describes the density of each tiny LED pixel on an LED display and is the vertical and horizontal distance between the center points of each LED pixel. Pixel pitch is sometimes referred to as pitch or dot pitch, abbreviated as “P” and measured in millimeters. Thus a P1.0 LED display denotes an LED display with an LED pixel pitch of 1 mm.

The fixed-size circuit boards and backplanes sequentially mounted with LED beads are called LED modules. These LED modules are seamlessly stitched and stacked together to form a large indoor or outdoor LED wall.

Pixel pitch is important because it affects the visual quality of the outdoor display. Since pixel pitch represents the amount of space between two pixels, a smaller pixel pitch indicates less white space between pixels, which equates to higher pixel density and higher screen resolution.

Images can have smoother edges and better detail thanks to higher pixel density and screen resolution. It allows the viewers to get closer to the screen and yet enjoy a high definition image without the distraction of identifying individual split pixels.

Development of Outdoor LED Display

In Past years, the development of LED screens accelerated. At the moment, LED inline lights hold the top spot in the market for outdoor LED displays. The special nature of the straight plug itself determines the large point spacing between the LED lights, typically 4 mm, 5 mm or even larger.

The first outdoor LED displays to hit the market were for huge billboards in shopping malls and on highways. The visuals on the screens looked fantastic from hundreds of feet away, but when you approached close, the text and photos looked horrible.

People are increasingly expecting to see the image of a direct-view LED display up close as outdoor LED screens are used more frequently. The demand for high-definition viewing effects has led to the trend of pixel pitch of outdoor LED displays downsizing. Therefore, the space is getting smaller and smaller as LED technology develops and manufacturing techniques improve.

The pixel pitch of outdoor LED screens, LED advertising screens, and outdoor LED signs has gradually decreased from P10 to P3, P2.5, and is now capable of P1.8 and P1.5.

● P1.5 LED Display

P1.5 LED display refers to the LED module in the LED pixel pitch of 1.5mm, pixel density of up to 444,444 per square meters and the minimum viewing distance of 1.5 meters.

● P1.8 LED Display

P1.8 LED display refers to the LED module in the LED pixel pitch of 1.8mm, pixel density of 288,906 per square meters, and the minimum viewing distance of 1.8 meters.

P1.5 LED displays and P1.8 LED displays provide more pixels to form an image on the display for spectacular high definition image quality when compared to P20 and P16 LED displays. P1.5 LED displays feature a closer ideal viewing distance and greater resolution as a result.

Additionally, the narrow pixel pitch LED display technology, represented by P1.8 and P1.5 LED displays, is renowned for its great brightness, energy efficiency, and extended life. Wider viewing angles are also made possible by this technology, allowing images to be clearly seen from farther away or from a variety of angles. Narrow pixel pitch LED display screen also provides a larger color range and higher brightness.

Fine pixel outdoor LED displays are now widely used in applications where people can see the screen up close, such as advertising in airports and rail terminals, seamless LED video wall centers in control and operations rooms, and in parking lots of public and private buildings.

in /by

Stadium LED screens and display control systems have become the primary display solution for many international stadiums as a result of the change and improvement of display technology and stadiums. From the Olympic Games and World Cup to the Super Bowl, stadium LED screens are the main means for fans to acquire information and interact with the game. They are also an essential window for international businesses to present their image on the field.

The role played by stadium LED displays in major sports events is self-evident. But do you already know where LED display screens will be applied to sports events? We are going to take the Qatar World Cup as an example to talk about the application and technical specifications of the stadium LED screens in this article.

LED Screens in the Opening Ceremony

The opening ceremony, which is often held in the major stadium, is an integral feature of many international events. Two large LED screens with a combined area of 70.78 m² were unveiled on the 190,000 square meter Lusail Stadium for the Qatar World Cup opening ceremony. These two stadium LED screens provide an immersive live music atmosphere with ultra-high-definition visuals and bright soft hues, complementing the performances of Bollywood’s most popular vocalist Sunidhi Chauhan and other superstars, delivering a passionate creative feast to the audience.

Due to the large footprint of the main stadium, the stadium LED display for the World Cup opening ceremony must have high definition, high resolution, high brightness, high refresh rate, and wide angle in order to allow more viewers to clearly see the content on the screen from multiple angles.

LED Scoreboard

The LED scoreboard is usually made up of multiple small LED panels stitched together to record information such as the time remaining in the game, the scores of both teams, and slow-motion replays. LED scoreboard is a type of stadium LED screen with the advantages of self-illumination, high brightness, wide viewing angle and high definition. To guarantee that viewers in any position won’t miss every thrilling shot of the live game, it can either broadcast the entire image or divide it into different windows. At the same time, with high contrast ratio, high refresh rate and high color reproduction, the LED scoreboard can really synchronize the game and attract potential sponsors.

The LED scoreboard used at Qatar World Cup must have improved heat dissipation and increased brightness due to the country’s high temperatures and intense sunlight. The stadium LED displays used for the LED scoreboard also need built-in driver ICs and chips to achieve intelligent remote control of playback, replay, interactive, and other display systems during the event.

Perimeter LED Display

The stadium LED screen around the stadium is a perimeter LED display, mostly used to play back game highlights and broadcast commercial advertisements. Considering the powerful impact during the game, the stadium perimeter LED display must be impact resistant, shock resistant and cut resistant.

However, there are many specifications for the stadium LED screens that are employed because of the uniqueness of the location and the environment of the tournament venue.

A Complete Guide to Floor LED Screens

in /by

LED display screens have always been the first choice for indoor and outdoor content display because of its excellent display and flexible assembly. It is much more revolutionary to combine display and interactivity as a floor LED screen in the process of constant improvement and iteration of LED display technology. Expect the stunning visual effects, the immersive and participatory experience that a LED floor display offers participants is so compelling that an increasing number of cultural events and the entertainment industry opt to use it as their floor display solution.

Floor LED screens are being used increasingly frequently to draw in more target audiences and boost performance as the entertainment industry and cultural performances are booming. You’ve come to the right place if you’ve never heard of LED screen floors. This post will provide you a thorough analysis of floor LED screen solutions so you can apply them to grow your business exponentially.

What is the Floor LED Screen?

Floor LED screens refer to LED panels with extreme load-bearing properties laid on the ground to provide a floor display. The LED screen floor typically has an indefinitely large grid made up of numerous small LED modules. Each LED module contains a rectangular matrix with 32 rows and 16 columns of LEDs. These thousands of LEDs may all be operated separately to produce a wide range of beautiful, moveable, and vibrant patterns.

The visual display on traditional floor LED screens has advanced to an amazing level. In this case, numerous LED screen manufacturers upgrade them into interactive LED floor screens to meet a variety of entertainment purposes by fusing sensor and display technology. Thanks to the sensing technologies, interactive LED floor screens are gradually taking the lead among floor display options by giving participants an outstanding visual and interactive experience.

How Does Interactive LED Floor Screen Work?

With the aid of contemporary technology, interactive LED floor screens can provide stage performances and party entertainment with a more varied and personalized presentation, allowing the audience to experience pleasant surprises. And the primary reason for this effect is that the interactive LED floor screen combines pressure sensors, capacitive sensors, infrared sensors, images and other equipment on the basis of ordinary floor LED screens.

Signal acquisition, signal processing, imaging and interaction make up the core three components of the interactive LED floor screen system’s operation.

Signal Acquisition – When someone moves on the LED floor screen, the infrared sensor, pressure sensor and imaging device of the interactive LED floor display system will work together to capture the movement of the target object in real time.

Signal Processing – The interactive LED floor display system will analyze the captured information in real time and send the generated data back to the master controller and interface with the virtual scene system.

Imaging and Interaction – In this part, the interactive LED floor screen system uses predefined interactive materials, display devices and other auxiliary devices (such as media controllers) to present the animated images at the specific location of the target object after logical judgment. This creates a tightly integrated real-time interactive effect between the participants and the LED screen floor.

What are the Advantages of Floor LED Screens?

RIGARD floor LED screens, which are widely used on stages, concerts, shopping malls and exhibition halls, have incomparable advantages over traditional LED displays and projectors in terms of content display, load-bearing, protective performance and heat dissipation performance.

Powerful Interactivity

The interactive LED floor screen can quickly process data and provide intriguing interactive effects on the movements thanks to the integrated intelligent sensor device. In order to ensure that it only records actual touches and ignores transients like dust, chairs, or other foreign objects, interactive LED floor screens from RIGARD feature hundreds of high-resolution tracking sensors that are calibrated to the floor surface on a regular basis. However, the fun of engaging with the floor is absent for the conventional LED display screens and projectors, which can only play a fixed picture in accordance with the predetermined content to fit the performance.


Powerful Load-bearing Performance

The floor LED screen must have a higher load-bearing capacity than a regular LED display screen because it is mounted on the floor and supports a lot of weight from people and objects. LED screen floor with strong load-bearing performance is the key to ensure user safety and display equipment operation. The maximum load-bearing capacity of RIGARD LED floor displays can reach 2T/m², which readily supports the weight of many people and vehicles.

Excellent Protection Performance

High brightness, wide viewing angle, high temperature resistance and water resistance as the necessary characteristics of traditional LED screen panels provide the best guarantee for content display, and the interactive LED floor screen is no exception.

Based on this, the mask of interactive LED floor screen, which is constructed of highly wear-resistant resin or frosted glass, can successfully serve the purposes of anti-slip, durability, and anti-cutting. Also, the floor-mounted LED display panels are better protected thanks to waterproof rubber rings that surround the mask and bottom case, making them seamlessly assembled.

Easy Installation

The interactive LED floor screen is easy, quick, and flexible to install. As mentioned earlier, an interactive LED screen floor is built utilizing several LED modules. Depending on the size and shape of the venue, you can even create a unique space. The pre-maintenance installation of floor LED screens also enables rapid disassembly and installation of individual LED modules using suction cup tools without removing neighboring LED modules. As a result, installation efficiency is considerably increased and maintenance expenses are decreased.

Application of Floor LED Screens

Floor LED screens are gradually being used in a variety of commercial settings to attract target audiences, thereby promoting growth in performance. This is due to the stunning visual experience and immersive interaction that floor LED screens give in live broadcasts, stage performances, and interactive games.

Stage Performance – Large-scale stage events have become the most common setting for floor LED screens in recent years. The use of stage LED floor screens in stage performances is very impressive. Combined with the performer’s movement and performance content, the dance floor LED display can present a gorgeous animation effect in real time, creating a more fantastic stage effect. At the point where more stage designers are choosing to include the stage backdrop into the LED floor display, floor LED screens have evolved into a vital tool for performers to present breathtaking stage performances and for audiences to enjoy the feast.

Large Shopping Malls – Floor LED screens are a more novel advertising carrier compared to the traditional LED display for advertising at some large malls. Through the intelligent interactive function, it may increase the number of potential consumers to your business. By displaying brand and promotion information, Floor LED screens are also a helpful tool for brand marketing.

Entertainment Venues – LED floor displays can introduce interesting physical games and multiplayer interactive games in entertainment venues like bars, KTVs, and gaming halls. They help to create an exciting entertainment environment, dramatically boost the fun of players, and raise the number of repeat visitors from users.

What is IMD LED Display and Difference Between IMD and COB Encapsulation?

in /by

In recent years, the popularity of 5G network, the upgrade of digital services, the application of conference visualization, the in-depth practice of smart cities and the continuous expansion of the security monitoring market stimulate the development of HD display market segmentation. HD display, which is being upgraded from 4K display to 8K display, is gradually becoming the development vane of the current display technology.

Small pitch display technology is the key to making this market segmentation with great future possibilities. The current LED display industry has broken through technological innovation and can produce LED displays with pixel pitch less than 10mm. Since its introduction, the small pixel pitch LED video wall has become the most popular display solution in the indoor display market with its advantages of high brightness, high resolution, high gray level and high contrast, widely used in conference rooms, lecture halls, government service centers, etc.

As the size of LEDs gets smaller, the ability to pick up and accurately place it becomes increasingly difficult. The challenges of packaging technology contribute to high cost, making small pixel pitch LED video walls still have a long way to go to achieve mass production. The LED display industry has been looking for newer ways to reduce costs and allow for smaller pixel pitches.

Historically, LEDs were diced from epitaxial wafers, placed in surface-mount packages, wire-bonded at the appropriate location, and encapsulated in epoxy or silicon, which is known as SMD technology. The changes in the way LEDs are packaged can be described as a new packaging technology that packages the LED chip, rather than the LED lamp, directly onto the PCB, known as COB.

In the past few years, SMD and COB technologies have been dominating the small pixel pitch display market. We have also always heard opinions about COB winning over the traditional SMD with various technical advantages. However, to this day we find that the most popular solution for small pixel pitch LED displays represented by P0.9 LED displays is neither SMD nor COB, but IMD.

What is IMD LED Display?

IMD (Integrated Matrix Devices) refers to the packaging of two, four, six or more groups of RGB diodes in a small unit, also known as “N-in-1”. Typical IMD models are generated as 2*2 or 4-in-1 packages, where each 4-in-1 package includes four SMDs and each SMD includes three chips (red, green, and blue).

IMD is an intermediate product between SMD and COB, combining the advantages of both. IMD is a new generation of LED packaging technology that meets the current market demand in terms of both appearance and performance.

Differences between IMD and COB/SMD

Higher reliability and protection performance

LED display screens must be transported over long distances to reach the client, and they will inevitably be bumped during the process of installation to put into use. Therefore, the protection of LED display screens is one of the important factors considered by LED display manufacturers and the rental market. As both IMD and COB are using integrated packaging technology, the hermeticity and reliability have made a qualitative leap compared with the traditional SMD, meeting the requirements of customers at this stage.

Smaller pixel pitch

SMD technology has physical limitations that make it the best solution to produce LED displays with a pixel pitch close to 1.2mm. Further reduction in pixel pitch would result in high costs. IMD technology, on the other hand, can achieve mass production of smaller pixel pitch LED displays, such as P0.8, P0.6, P0.4 LED screens, in a short period of time and at a very low cost.

 More stable color consistency

IMD inherits the long-accumulated sorting technology of SMD, which makes it have good color consistency in display effect compared with current COB, without the problem of poor appearance and lighting uniformity. Although COB has also improved in color consistency, it is not as stable as IMD, and sometimes there are batches of errors. To reduce this risk, COB usually uses fixed chips for chip bonding. However, this approach does not guarantee that the optoelectronic parameters of all LED components are within a reasonable range after repair, which requires engineers to perform point-by-point calibration. As a result, COBs cost more than IMDs to achieve the same level of color consistency.

Lower maintenance costs

Controlling costs to create more value for downstream customers is essential. When a local area of the LED display screen is damaged, LED screen with IMD technology only need to remove a single damaged point for maintenance, while those with COB technology need to remove the entire LED module for maintenance, which undoubtedly increases maintenance costs.

All in all, IMD offers better crash protection and more possibilities for smaller pixel pitches than conventional SMD. Compared with COB, IMD has higher color consistency and lower maintenance cost, especially when only a single diode needs to be repaired. IMD combines the advantages of traditional SMD and COB to properly solve the problems of damage protection, black level consistency, seamless stitching, light leakage, and maintenance. With higher contrast, higher integration, easier maintenance and lower cost, it is the ideal technology for the evolution to finer pitch.

With the above information, you may notice that IMD technology is superior to COB and SMD technology for small pixel pitch LED displays. If you are looking for small pixel pitch LED displays, Mini LED displays, or even Micro LED displays, you can refer to RIGARD’s narrow pixel pitch series. We have a global reputation for gaining significant market share in many types of small pixel LED displays with our mastery of IMD and COB technologies.

Will Cinema LED Screen Replace Projector into The Theaters?

in /by

The majority of current movies are projection-based, i.e., the projector projects the movie content on the curtain or screen. The curtain directly in front of the viewing area, as the internal hardware setting of the cinema, is the most important factor affecting the viewing experience of audiences. In order to provide audiences with high-definition picture quality and a rich viewing experience, the curtain has undergone an upgrade from the initial simple white cloth to an ordinary screen, giant screen, and even dome and ring screen, with a huge change in picture quality, screen size, and form.

However, as the market becomes more demanding in terms of movie experience and picture quality, projectors are gradually showing their downside. Even we have 4K projectors, they are only capable of achieving HD pictures in the center area of the screen but defocus around the edges. In addition, the projector has a low brightness value, which means that only in a completely dark environment can viewers see the movie. What is worse, the low brightness can easily cause discomfort such as dizziness and eye swelling from prolonged viewing. Furthermore, the immersive visual and sound experience is an important measurement factor for movie viewing, but the sound system of the projector is difficult to meet such high requirements, which urges theaters to purchase a separate stereo system. It undoubtedly increases the cost for theaters.

In fact, the inherent flaws of projection technology have never been solved. Even with the support of laser light source technology, it is difficult to meet the audience’s demanding requirements for ever-increasing picture quality, and the pressure of cost has prompted them to seek new breakthroughs. In this case, Samsung launched the world’s first Cinema LED Screen at CinemaCon Film Expo in March 2017, which heralded the birth of the cinema LED screen, whose advantages happen to cover the shortcomings of traditional movie projection methods. Since then, the launch of the cinema LED screen has been considered a new breakthrough for LED screens into the field of film projection technology.

Brightness is one of the biggest advantages of cinema LED displays over projectors. Thanks to self-illuminating LED beads and a peak brightness of 500 nits, the cinema LED screen does not need to be used in a dark environment. Combined with the active light-emitting method and the diffuse reflective design of the surface, the cinema LED screen ensures uniform exposure of the screen surface and consistent display of every aspect of the image, which are the advantages that are difficult to counteract with traditional projection methods. Since cinema LED screens do not require a completely darkened room, it opens new doors for theaters, game rooms, or restaurant theaters to further enrich cinema services.

• Stronger Contrast in Color.

Cinema LED screens not only perform better in non-dark rooms but also produce deeper blacks given the active light-emitting method and compatibility with various HDR technologies to create stronger color contrast and richer color rendering. For projectors, on the other hand, the contrast between color pixels and black pixels is not significant as all projectors shine light onto the screen through the lens.

• High Definition Display.

The rapid development of digital film and television has higher requirements for high-definition displays and innovative displays, while the cinema LED screen is just right to meet this demand. Along with the breakthroughs and innovations in small pitch display technology, small pixel pitch LED displays do have the advantage of allowing 4K content or even 8K content to be played. Moreover, their refresh rate is as high as 3840Hz, making it greater to handle every detail of an image than a projector.

• Support 3D Display.

LED display screen supports the presentation of 3D content, allowing users to watch 3D movies with their naked eyes without the need for specialized 3D glasses. With high brightness and industry-leading 3D stereoscopic depth, LED display screens bring visual detail to the forefront. With cinema LED screens, viewers will see fewer motion artifacts and blur but more vivid and realistic 3D movie content, even at high speeds.

• Longer Lifespan.

It goes without saying that LED screens last up to 100,000 hours, three times longer than projectors, which typically last 20-30,000 hours. It effectively reduces the time and cost of subsequent maintenance. In the long run, cinema LED screens are more cost-effective than projectors.

• Easy to Install and Maintain.

The cinema LED wall is made by stitching multiple LED modules together and it supports installation from the front, which makes the cinema LED screen easier to install and maintain. When an LED module is damaged, it can be replaced individually without dismantling the whole LED display to repair.

The Future of Cinema LED Screens

The future development of cinema LED screens does have unlimited prospects, but limited by technical barriers and DCI certification, most LED display manufacturers have failed to enter the cinema market. Nevertheless, XR virtual filming, a hot new market segment in recent years, opens up a new path for LED screen manufacturers to enter the movie market. With the advantages of more HD shooting effects, less post-production, and more virtual scene shooting possibilities than the green screen, virtual production LED wall is favored by directors and has been widely used in film and TV series shooting to replace the green screen. Virtual production LED wall in film and television drama shooting is the application of LED screens in the film industry and facilitates the further promotion of the cinema LED screen.

Moreover, consumers have become accustomed to high resolution, high-quality images and immersive virtual reality on large TVs, and expectations for cinematic visuals are growing.
