Daktronics is ready to share the latest in dvLED products and technology as well as the strides the company is making within the AV channel at Booth 3226. 

The AV industry continues to crave tighter and tighter pixel spacings to deliver more versatile, better-looking products for all of the wide range of applications the industry is seeing. These requirements have pushed dvLED (direct view LED) into the forefront of AV professional’s minds when looking for products to fit their needs. As such, Daktronics continues to innovate and engineer solutions to meet those ever-evolving needs.

With the ever-tighter pixel pitches in mind, the company will feature two displays with pixels spaced less than one millimeter apart at 0.7 and 0.9-millimeter pixel spacings. These displays feature IMD (Integrated Matrix Device) technology consisting of red, green and blue pixels mounted in a 2x2 array to achieve extremely close pixel spacing. The company will also be showing an LED floor screen that can be walked on by attendees for those advanced applications where standing on a display can introduce a special wow factor.

Not so long ago, Daktronics introduced a speed frame wall mounting process to streamline installations for nearly half the time as traditional methods. The company also brought an all-in-one smart display line to market for quick and easy installation of a fine pitch LED product.
