The reason for developing outdoor small pitch LED display screens.

Outdoor small-pitch LED displays usually refers to outdoor LED displays product with a dot pitch below 5mm. For outdoor LED displays, the dot pitch is usually above 5mm, such as 8mm and 10mm.

Why are small-pitch displays rarely used outdoors?

Generally speaking, the outdoor screen viewing distance is relatively far, such as 8-24m or 10-30m. Even if the pixel pitch is large, people will not feel any impact when watching.

Normally, small-pitch LED displays are used indoors because the indoor viewing distance is short. If you view a screen with a large dot pitch indoors, the “graininess” of the picture becomes very obvious.

Besides, the price of small-pitch LED displays is higher than that of large-pitch LED displays. Considering the cost, when people choose outdoor LED displays, they will give priority to LED displays with larger spacing.

So, does this mean that only LED displays above P5 are used outdoors, while small-pitch LED displays can only be used indoors?

In fact, outdoor small-pitch LED displays also have great market demand.

For outdoor LED displays, its application is very extensive. In pedestrian streets, sidewalks, and shopping malls, we will see a lot of LED screens playing advertisements next to them. Even a lot of display screens are placed in the middle of the square, and people look at the display screens very close.

In these scenes, a small-pitch screen is more suitable because it allows passers-by to see the content of the screen clearly. The growing demand for close viewing has prompted LED display manufacturers to actively study outdoor small-pitch displays. At present, the outdoor small-pitch LED display has a breakthrough(1.9mm) and has been applied. According to market research and feedback, there is a great demand for P2.5 small-pitch LED displays in the market. Therefore, outdoor small-pitch LED displays around P2.5 are the main trend in the future.

To develop outdoor small-pitch LED displays, the following points must be considered.

1. Reducing costs.

Currently, the cost of small-pitch displays is relatively high. Most of the small-pitch display screens are used indoors, while you will choose a larger-pitch display screen outdoors, which can reduce costs. Therefore, to make the outdoor small pitch screen become mainstream, it is necessary to reduce the cost. This requires LED display manufacturers to develop new technologies and combine outdoor characteristics to develop small-pitch LED displays, which are more suitable for outdoor use but the price will not be too high.

2. High protection level (dustproof and waterproof).

The outdoor environment is worse than indoors, and there are more uncertain factors outside, especially weather factors, such as dust, typhoons, storms, and storms. Therefore, the small-pitch LED display needs to have a higher level of protection, and the modules and cabinets must be anti-corrosion, anti-oxidation, fire-proof, and so on. At present, aluminum alloy materials are more suitable. Moreover, the aluminum material also has the characteristics of fast heat dissipation and high flatness, which can maintain the stable operation of the LED display in any outdoor environment.

3. Energy saving and environmental protection.

Displays used outdoors require a long-term stable operation. It consumes electricity every day, and the price of a small pitch is generally higher than that of a large pitch. Therefore, it is difficult to reduce the price of a small pitch display a lot.

But if the common cathode energy-saving technology is applied to the small-pitch LED display, its energy-saving effect will be greatly improved, so that a large number of electricity bills can be saved every year, thereby indirectly reducing the price for customers.

In addition to energy saving, environmental protection is also an important factor.

Because outdoor small-pitch LED displays will be used closer to people, whether the display cabinet will heat up too high, whether the display is safe during operation, whether there will be noise in the LED display and whether it will be switched due to video Affect people’s lives, etc., these will become factors that people need to consider when studying outdoor small-pitch LED displays.

In short, to meet the huge market demand, outdoor small-pitch LED displays will be an inevitable trend in the development of the industry. This is also a huge driving force for LED display manufacturers to develop outdoor small-pitch LED displays.

The reason why outdoor SMD LED displays can replace DIP LED displays.

The advantages of Outdoor LED Display SMD compared to DIP:

1) The outdoor surface mount can achieve the matching of red, blue, and green brightness at different angles to achieve a high degree of consistency, thus ensuring that the brightness of the outdoor full-color SMD LED display at any angle is consistent. So as to achieve a better color vivid effect.

2) Because the three chips are very close, the light is mixed in the same bracket bowl instead of three discrete elliptical LEDs, so the red, blue, and green light mixing effect is better than the DIP elliptical LED screen, which is especially suitable for close viewing.

3) The outdoor SMD has good light distribution, wide viewing angle, good light mixing, and high contrast.

4) Outdoor SMD full-color screens not only have a wide viewing angle of 110 degrees or more in the horizontal direction, but also have a wide viewing angle of 110 degrees or more in the vertical direction. Outdoor LED displays suspended in the sky need a wider viewing angle to display more good advertising effect.

5) Because the design structure is three-in-one, the full-color SMD is small in size, so the black area is large and the light-emitting area is small, thus improving the contrast of the LED display.

6) It can use the automatic placement machine for automatic production, and the production efficiency is high. The circuit design of the outdoor SMD LED display module can realize the combination of the lamp board and the driver board. Compared with the DIP product, it not only improves the reliability, but also improves the production efficiency, and more importantly, reduces the cost.

7) Compared to DIP displays, outdoor full-color SMD displays are glue-free, and the cabinets are lighter and thinner, which is easier and faster to install. The cabinet structure design of aluminum alloy material is very light, beautiful, not easy to deform, and easy to assemble and flat.

It is precise because of the superiority of the above SMD LED displays that it will replace the DIP LED displays market in the future. However, due to the complex and changeable outdoor environment, the material matching, thermal stress, the adhesive degree between the material and the substrate, etc., make the packaging process of the exterior coating products more difficult. It is not easy to maintain a good combination when performance changes. Therefore, the main task at present is to break through technical difficulties and reduce the price of SMD products.

It is understood that the outdoor DIP three-in-one products appearing on the market now cannot meet the user’s display needs in traditional direct insertion, And the outdoor SMD and because of the high price, as well as temporary technical problems and difficult to get large-scale use. However, this kind of outdoor DIP three-in-one product has a good response in the market. The traditional full-color requires three single lamps as a pixel, while the outdoor DIP three-in-one product only needs one single lamp. Achieve the same effect, thus greatly reducing the production and material costs, so that the product has excellent price competitiveness.

Therefore, some people in the industry said that within a certain period of time, there will be a lot of room for development. In the long run, in the future, it will eventually be the home field of SMD LED display. With the improvement of technology, the LED display of the DIP will eventually be replaced by SMD LED display, and it will become an inevitable trend.

The use of outdoor LED displays in harsh weather and environments.

In summer and autumn, typhoon weather increases, and when abundant rain and strong winds affect the safety of life and property in the area, it is also a huge test for outdoor LED displays.

We know that outdoor LED screens must be able to withstand all kinds of bad weather, such as rain and sand, etc. Strong protection ability is a major feature of outdoor displays. However, continued bad weather is still the most important factor causing damage to outdoor LED screens.

In response to this situation, every popular LED screen manufacturers have improved or upgraded their outdoor screens. However, due to the product control and design issues of each manufacturer, damaged outdoor LED screens with short lifespans are still visible today.

Is there an outdoor display that can significantly improve this problem?

Chipshow C-VENT is a ventilated and light-tight outdoor LED display. This screen fully takes into consideration severe weather such as strong winds and rain, and takes into account load-bearing installation, all of which have been designed and improved.

Ventilation Hole Design In view of the situation where strong winds in coastal areas and typhoon weather may cause structural damage or installation damage, the C-VENT outdoor screen body has a dense ventilation hole design, which effectively reduces wind resistance. The advantage of this design is that it prevents the LED screen from being damaged by strong winds and can effectively utilize natural wind to dissipate heat, making it easy to cope with coastal windy environments and typhoon weather.

The module protection technology is strong and bad weather can easily cause rainwater to invade the screen body and cause damage to the internal components of the LED display. This is the most common failure situation. Therefore, Chipshow has taken multiple protective measures for C-VENT modules: surface glue filling, three-proof paint, protective masks and other multiple protection measures.
The lightweight screen module’s hollow and breathable hole design is much lighter than other common modules, making it very suitable for installation in outdoor environments, as well as installation in old buildings or structures with reduced load-bearing capacity.

How to design effective billboard content skills?

Digital billboards are excellent tools to advertise and promote your business. As a result, these billboards are very high in demand in the market. Unlike traditional billboards, these can display an unlimited variety of content. Besides, it offers a brilliant and vivid display screen.

But there is one thing to consider very seriously. It is the billboard content. So often, we see that the billboards are of excellent quality. But the content that they display doesn’t meet the standards. Without compelling content, you can’t achieve the true purpose of the billboard. Thus, billboard content is as essential as the quality of the billboard itself. In other words, I would say that digital billboards are all about content.

I will give you eleven tips on creating compelling content in this article. How to design your content according to your business needs. These tips are:

1. Try to make easy-to-read billboard content.

2. Use contrasting colors in your billboard content.

3. Highlight only the central message of the content.

4. Use a limited amount of elements in your content.

5. Use a visual priority in your composition layouts.

6. Use bold, large, and easy-to-read typefaces in your content.

7. Use visual cues to attract the audience’s attention.

8. Avoid using white backgrounds for billboard content.

9. Use the right images for your billboard content.

10. Never hesitate to use imagination and creativity in your billboard content.

11. Always test your content before running it on the billboard.

Above are 11 tips from my side on how to create effective billboard content. Now, I will describe these tips one by one in detail.

Try to make easy-to-read billboard content:

I will start with the basic rule or criteria for creating any content. Content creators often make this mistake. They use complex terms or complicated vocabulary. It would be good for you to remember that ordinary people are viewing your content. They are your target audience.

Not everyone has a high IQ or a college or university-level education. Thus, it would help if you tried to use simple words in your message. Besides, you can try to make readable content. So that even a person with primary education can understand your message and content.

Use contrasting colors in your billboard content:

One creates content to deliver some message to the people. If your content isn’t clear to see, your content is worthless.

I would say that the billboard content or any content is about clarity or readability. One way to produce such content is by using contrasting colors.

You must be thinking about what this phenomenon of color contrast is. Using contrast colors means using different color combinations. Usually, we will use a white background in a dark environment. And for a bright environment, we will use a black background.

I will explain it more. You can achieve color contrast by using opposite colors on the color wheel. By this, I mean complementary colors.

Using contrast colors can give us another benefit. You can separate your main message or elements by using it. Sometimes, your message gets lost in a mixture of colors in the content. As a result, people can’t focus on it. As a consequence, they don’t understand your message. Hence, you can highlight or underline your main message using contrasting colors.

Highlight only the central message of the content:

Digital billboards can display images, text, videos, and animated graphics. At the same time, traditional billboards can show images or picture only. But don’t use lengthy videos or graphics on digital billboards. Instead, it would help if you aim to create content as short as possible.

It is a fact that time is the most precious thing. No one has any free time to stop and view your content thoroughly. Moreover, everyone has a short attention span nowadays. Thus, delivering your message as straightforwardly as possible is always better.

Your audience is pedestrians or people in moving vehicles. They have only a few seconds to view and read your message.

You should identify the keywords of your message. What are the essential words or lines you want the people to view? You should highlight these critical points.

Use a limited amount of elements in your content:

As discussed above, people have very little time to view your content. Thus, always keep your content simple and meaningful. For example, a headline should have seven or fewer characters.

Keep every frame as simple as possible if your content is in video format. Besides, you should avoid mixing too many images or graphics.

For instance, Apple uses a single photo to highlight its message. It is enough to tell people that Apple has high-quality camera performance.

Use a visual priority in your composition layouts:

Your billboard content can be text, picture, video, or graphics. If your content has too many elements, people may find it hard to determine the main message. Your content may puzzle them. Even after viewing it, they may still not know your main message.

The solution to this problem is the visual priority. It can bring a hierarchy to your content. Your main message should appear as the most prominent element of your content. It is because human eyes scan and read from top to bottom. Thus put your message on the top. After this, you can keep the other less essential elements.

Use bold, large, and easy-to-read typefaces in your content:

Your content must be legible. Legible content efficiently delivers the message to the viewer. One of the factors of legibility is the easy-to-read typeface.

Firstly, digital billboards can be quite large. And secondly, the viewers can view the billboard from a distance. In such cases, the content needs to be easy to read.

The text height should be at least 20 inches for the headline. And the text height should be at least 12 inches for the body. These are just examples. The text height should be according to the viewing distance and billboard size. Remember that your text shouldn’t be too small or too big.

You can use typography in this regard. It is a design principle that can determine whether your text is easy to read or not. It depends on the spacing, arrangement, and styling of the text.

I will tell you to keep a few things in my mind about typography.

Always use large and bold fonts. Avoid small and thin ones as they can be hard to read at a distance.
Don’t capitalize all the alphabet of long sentences. It can become hard to read and understand.
Give proper spacing.

Try to keep the same font design in your content. But don’t mix too many types of fonts.

Use visual cues to attract the attention of an audience:

While reading this heading, you must wonder what the visual cues are. I will explain this to you. Visual cues are the directional cues. These signs or elements can help attract viewers’ attention to desired areas.

I mean the spots on the billboard that display your main message in desired areas. These areas include call-to-actions, products, or main messages.

Some of the most common visual cues may be:

Arrows
Face or eye direction
Color contrasts

Visual cues are sometimes vital. Sometimes, you don’t follow the visual priority rules. You may need to place the critical messages aside. It may be due to some design factors or some other reasons.

Similarly, your design may not be good sometimes. In these conditions, visual cues are of significant importance. They can help you to attract the audience to your main message on the billboard.

Avoid using white backgrounds for billboard content:

Although white backgrounds attract the most, they can be distracting sometimes. Many LED panels comprise digital billboards. And these panels consist of many tiny bulbs or packages.

Red, Green, and Blue are the three primary colors for these LED bulbs or packages. So if you want to achieve white background, all these must be on. Besides, all red, green, and blue LEDs must have maximum brightness. And you may know that full brightness means higher power consumed. Thus, power consumption is very high for white backgrounds on digital billboards.

All in all, white backgrounds are not very cheap for billboard content. Thus, you should avoid using these backgrounds. The billboard background may appear bright, especially on a night with full brightness. Moreover, it can distract road users. And it can be irritating as well. Thus, it can make your content hard to view on white background.

Use the right images for your billboard content:

Firstly, I think images or pictures are pre-requisite for any content. Images or pictures are a powerful source of displaying your message. It is a powerful way of telling your story.

Images can deliver your message more effectively than simple text. And, thanks to the LED screen, you can easily display colorful and vibrant images on the billboard.

But you must select the right images for your content. You should choose the images that portray your message the best. You shouldn’t use pictures just for decorative purposes only. It isn’t very sensible and will occupy most of the space on the screen. Thus, you should use images that have a message. It is also important because the viewers have a limited time viewing the screen.

Thus, select the images that are meaningful and display your message effectively.

Never hesitate to use imagination and creativity in your billboard content:

It is a fact that every content should be creative and engaging. One should not look just for straightforward content. There is so much content and so much to see out there. Your content should be creative and innovative if you want people to see it. Your content should stand apart from others. Thus, it would help to use creativity and imagination in your content.

It is also one of the reasons that businesses are using digital billboards. It is due to the ability of these billboards to display a wide range of content. It is its ability to express creative content that makes it valuable. You can show text, images, videos, and animated graphics.

But, if you look at traditional billboards, there is no creativity. Or you say minimal creativity. You can’t display videos or graphics on it. Whereas on digital billboards, you can display almost anything you want. Use the best format that is suitable for your business. And use it to create something unique and engage the audience.

For instance, 3D LED billboards are becoming popular these days. Businesses are using it to promote and advertise themselves. These billboards display the content as if you are seeing it in reality. They install 3D billboards on facades in busy areas. It targets the people walking in these active areas. They feel mesmerized by viewing the creativity in this content.

Always test your content before running it on the billboard:

It is simple. Always test your device or anything you made before finalizing it. The same is the case with billboard content. I know that buying a digital billboard or advertisement slot can be expensive. And standard or below-par content can ruin your business.

Thus, it is wise to test your content and seek advice on it from experts. The content can be average even when you have followed every basic rule. Even if you are working hard to create the best content, you should test it. I would suggest you show your content to some experts and take their reviews.

Please show them your content and ask them for their opinion:

You can get an idea of whether your design is good.
You should play the content in real-time.
Ask your friends or experts if they understand your message or not.

In my view, this is an essential step and tip to creating mind-blowing content.

Conclusion:

I have tried above to explain the importance of good content. And how can you create creative content for your business? Digital billboards are an effective tool in outdoor advertising. You can say that they are one of the most powerful advertising tools. But if you don’t know how to use it for your business, then what is its benefit? With the right billboard, you will also need the right content. Only then can you advertise your business successfully. I hope the above tips will help you create great content.

Introduction guide for outdoor LED display screens

Today we are living a life of technology. Just have a look around. You will witness various forms of technology. LED screens are one of them. Revolution in the area of marketing is due to these screens. They have become popular because of their applications in different areas of life.

There are various forms of display screens. We have not only indoor types. You will witness a lot of uses in outdoor setups, also. The most crucial role played by these screens is brand promotion. You can install them in outdoor designs to promote your business. With advancement, we have modified forms of display screens. These include pole LED displays, curved LED displays, and 3D screens. We also have different shapes and sizes of LED screens.

In this post, we will discuss outdoor LED screens in detail. We will go through its applications, features, and many other aspects.

What is an Outdoor LED Display?

The display screens installed in the outside environment are outdoor led screens. These screens use the same LED technology as indoor screens. It is just that they have some extra features. For example, outdoor screens are waterproof and with much higher brightness.

Types of Outdoor LED Displays:

We can classify the outdoor display screens on two bases.

Classification based on service method:

There are two types on this basis. These include:

Back service LED displays:

These are the type of screens that offer one-sided maintenance. Thus, you can open it from only one side for cleaning. It includes the following types:

P2.5
P3
P4
P5
P6
P8
P10

Back and front service LED displays:

These types of screens offer maintenance from both sides. You can maintain them from front and back. It includes the following types:

P4
P5.33
P6.67
P8
P10

Classification based on installation methods:

We can install outdoor LED screens at a location permanently. Or we can use the rental installation. On behalf of such methods, the following are the types of outdoor LED screens:

Fixed installation:

In this type, we have:

P2.5
P3
P4
P5
P6
P8
P10

Rental installation:

In this type, we have:

P2.976
P3.91
P4.81

Features of Outdoor LED Display:

Visual quality:

The primary function of outdoor screens is to captivate the audience’s attention. Besides, they build an impression of the brand. Thus, the visual quality is of significant importance. It has a direct impact on the message delivered. For this, the outdoor screen should be vibrant and bright.

If the image appears washed out, it attracts negative reviews. The pixel pitch and the resolution should be accurate. And another essential thing to consider is the viewing distance. Yes, the visual quality is also crucial for indoor screens. But, it has more importance for outdoor screens.

High Brightness:

It is an elementary feature for outdoor display screens. As the name indicates, the outdoor screens must face the direct sunlight all day. It is tough to view content during the day. During the day, there is bright sunshine. The brightness should be more than the sunshine. Only then can we see the content. Thus, this brightness feature has significant importance for outdoor screens.

At night, the brightness should be low. High brightness can distract the drivers. It will also harm pedestrians. Moreover, it will cause light pollution. Thus, it is best if outdoor LED screens can adjust the brightness automatically.

Weather factors:

Outdoor display screens have to face different weather conditions. It will face both hot and cold temperatures. It will also face rain, wind, snow, dust, and humidity. In these cases, the design of the display is essential. It should have all the protective functions. It will increase the lifespan of the display screen.

During rain, the water gets seeped through the screen. As a result, it can damage the image quality of the screen. Or even worse, it can destroy the display screen. Thus, the outdoor screens should be waterproof.

There is an IP rating for every display screen. The IP rating is ingress protection. It refers to the degree of protection the display screen have. Outdoor screens should have a high IP rating. Its minimum IP rating should be IP65. The high IP rating reduces the risk of damage to the display screen. The outdoor LED display should have all these features:

Insulation
Anti-leakage
Moisture-proof
Shockproof
Dustproof
Anti-corrosion
Anti-aging
Corona resistance

Temperature regulation:

Every display screen has an ideal internal temperature. It functions efficiently at this temperature. And this temperature is more important for outdoor screens. It is because they have to face both hot and cold weather.

The average working of display screens produces some amount of heat. There is a cooling mechanism on display screens. It will counter the heat produced by the screen. If the heat produced is more and the cooling is less, it will affect the screen. The LED display will not function if there is no heat dissipation.

The display screens have a cooling fan with a double ball bearing for heat dissipation. It is present above the back of the display. It ejects the heat produced. So, the outdoor screen should have a proper thermal management solution.

Energy efficiency:

We mainly use the outdoor screens for advertising purposes. We use these to generate profit. If the cost of using these screens is too high, what profit will they bring us? For example, the display screen has a high operating price. As a result, they have increased production costs. Then, we will lose profitability. Thus, outdoor screens should be highly energy efficient. Outdoor screens have unique power-saving technology. These features make them cost-effective.

Lightning protection:

Electronic devices are highly susceptible to lightning. The same is the case with outdoor LED screens. For protection against this issue, there are lightning arrestors. We ground the main body and shell of the display screen. And it can emit large currents produced by lightning.

Maintenance:

The maintenance procedure for outdoor screens is more complex than for indoor screens. It is because they have to face extreme conditions. Besides, they take a beating from climate change. Thus, it is essential to do the regular maintenance of outdoor screens. Doing this will increase the service life of the screen.

Benefits of Outdoor LED Display:

Attention-grabbing display:

The most significant benefit of the display screen is its attention-grabbing capabilities. It has a dynamic and vivid viewing effect. Because of that, the target consumer will take notice and stop to take in the message.

People take more note of the content shown on a bright and clear screen. As a result, traditional billboards get replaced by them.

Unique content:

We can display any content on these screens. The content can be text, pictures, videos, or graphical animations. Brands can show their best articles on billboards to grab people’s attention. Businesses can deliver important information in the form of ads to diverse audiences.

Operational from anywhere:

Digital advertising is easy to operate remotely with a simple wi-fi connection. We can manage and control the ads with just a few clicks on the mouse. The company only needs to upload the content to the display’s software, and it will start running the ad.

Complete control of message:

Companies that sponsor the events using their digital signage have complete control. Brands can display short-term discounts and flash deals using LED window displays. The screen is perfect for capturing specific retail buyers.

Applications of Outdoor LED Displays:

Due to such features, we now have a wide range of applications for outdoor LED screens. Here is the list:

Brand awareness
Sports video wall
Concerts
Information display

Brand awareness:

If you are an entrepreneur, you will be well aware of this application of LED screens. To promote your business or brand, this is the best choice. This era is all about screens. You all are constantly dealing with screens, whether it is in the form of a mobile phone or laptop. So, if you want to have potential customers, you need to deal with their minds. Now people attract to screens with enchanting content displayed over them.

So outdoor LED screens find their best application in the area of marketing. It is the best way to have good traffic of customers. You can install screens in regions with high traffic of people. They will help you appropriately convey your brand or message.

For your business, it could be the best investment. Outdoor advertising via LED screens will give you high ROI.

Sports video wall:

Now we use outdoor LED screens as a crucial means of displaying information. In stadiums, you will witness a lot of applications of LED screens. For example, in stadiums, businessman promotes their brands via these screens. Moreover, they can display score rates. They show the game scores to all the fans quickly.

The application of screens in stadiums is not just displaying information. You can also entertain your audience with different scenarios. For example, it is impossible to have a clear view of the ground due to the significant distance from the ground. So here work outdoor LED screens. Besides, you can broadcast the event via screens to engage the audience better.

The role of outdoor LED screens in this part is of great value. Due to these screens, entertainment is now on the next level. As a result, the audience will surely better enjoy the event and have a good experience.

Apart from the above, you can also find its application in entertainment. For example, organizers install LED screens at concerts to engage the audience. This addition to the show will bring the event to the next level. As a result, there will be a better and more memorable experience.

The audience finds such events more enchanting. The stage, with fascinating displays, makes your event compelling. So LED screens have revolutionized the area of entertainment also.

Information display:

The need for outdoor LEDs keeps on increasing day by day. Now they are a vital component of displaying information at different locations. These locations include:

Airport flight dynamic state
Guidance of guests of ports and stations
Sports venue
Road traffic
Dispatch and command center

In such places, they play a vital role. First, it acts as a guide. It makes it easy for people by signaling the right path or location.

How to Control Your Outdoor LED Display?

We generally install outdoor screens in high places. Their locations are difficult to reach. Thus, it is necessary to control them remotely. We can do this with the help of a wireless connection.

There is unique software installed to control the screen. It can manage schedules on and off of the screen. It can regulate brightness, contrast, and other properties. We can also upload and change the content with the help of a wireless connection.

Regarding the IP rating of outdoor LED screens.

Have you ever come across the phrase “IP rating” and wonder what does it mean?

IP stands for ingress protection. IP rating is a recognized standard set by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). It is used to define the sealing effectiveness of an electronic enclosure against intrusions like dust or water. All electronic devices can be rated with the IP rating, including an outdoor LED screen.

Understand the IP Code

Before knowing the importance of the IP rating, it is better to learn how to read the IP code.

IP rating has 2 digits, for instance, IP32. The first digit refers to the protection level against physical contact and solid substances, such as dust and tools. The second digit indicates the protection level against liquid, such as raindrops, water splash and water jet.

For the first digit, it can go from 0 to 6. 0 means there is no protection against contact while 6 indicates full protection. The second digit will be from 0 to 8. 0 means no protection against liquid and 8 means the highest protection level against liquid.

A device with a rating of IP32 generally means, the device has only some degree of protection against both solid objects and liquid. The digit 3 indicates protection against objects that are greater than 2.5mm. However, the protection does not cover smaller objects and dust.

On the other hand, the device is not completely water-resistant. It is not protected against heavy rain too. The digit 2 indicates protection against vertically falling drops of water only. Hence, the lower the IP code, the limited the protection it has.

However, there is no need to go for a device with a high IP rating such as the IP68 in every situation since some devices will only be used indoors.

Importance of IP Rating For An Outdoor LED Screen

Now, let’s discuss the IP rating for outdoor LED screens and why it is important. First of all, an outdoor LED screen needs good protection against both solids and liquid. The screen will be placed outdoors where it will be exposed to all sorts of possible damages. It is exposed to hot sun, rain, and even to human contact.

An ingress protection rating is important to determine the protection level of an outdoor LED screen. The outdoor LED screen will be tested to prove whether it is both durable and protected. A high IP-rated outdoor LED screen is suitable for various outdoor applications since it is tested and is able to withstand the climatic conditions that can damage the display. In short, the outdoor LED screen is guaranteed to be both waterproof and weatherproof.

Furthermore, It is also important for an outdoor LED screen to be validated by the IP rating as it could be exposed to various human contacts. Anything can happen outdoors especially in areas with heavy foot traffic. Some people might accidentally hit the screen, spill a drink onto the LED screen, or tiny rocks may hit the screen. Hence, an Ingress Protection rating can help to make the outdoor LED screen to become a trusted product that could be put outdoors despite all the risks.

IP rating gives confidence to users as well. Users do not have to constantly be worried about their outdoor LED screens or other outdoor electronic devices if the abilities to resist water and weather damage have been tested. Users will feel assured when the devices are IP-rated. Besides, IP-rated products can also help users to make better decision in purchasing the right devices for their applications.

Ideal IP Rating For An Outdoor LED Screen

Being exposed to high-risk damages, an outdoor LED screen should have an ideal IP rating. It will be IP65 or at least IP54. Having an outdoor LED screen rated with the ideal IP rating is better. Do you know why IP65 is the ideal IP rating for an outdoor LED screen?

As mentioned before, the first digit indicates the protection against solids, and the second digit refers to the protection against liquid. An IP65-rated outdoor LED screen achieves maximum protection level against solid and physical contact, such as dust and humans’ touch. It is both dust-tight and durable. The digit 5 in the IP65 proves that the outdoor LED screen is protected from low-pressure water jets from all angles. It is totally protected against heavy rain.

The screen and the components of an outdoor LED are tested to be well-protected from raindrops, airborne, dust, wind, and other solid objects. Thus, an IP65-rated outdoor LED screen is enough for most situations. However, users can still go for a higher rating such as IP68. It depends on the budget available and the weather condition of the installation venue.

Difference Between Low IP Rating & High IP Rating Uses

A low IP rating does not mean the device is worthless. Both Low IP rating and high IP rating have their own suitable applications.

A low IP-rated electronic device tends to be used indoors while a high IP-rated device is suitable for various outdoor applications. For example, an outdoor LED display can be used outdoors since it has a high IP rating.

A low IP-rated device is suitable to be put indoors. There will be no raindrops, or cars splashing puddles onto the screen. A low rating is also appropriate for sealed products because sealed products have been designed to be protected against most minor damages.

For a high IP-rated device, it is appropriate to be used outdoors such as places with heavy foot traffic. Places with heavy foot traffic mean there are a large number of humans visiting the place from time to time. This increases the probability of human contact. People can possibly bring damage to the device by touching or dropping substances onto it. Besides, it is also suitable to be used in areas that are constantly exposed to water splash since the high IP-rated device is water-resistant.

Conclusion

To determine the best Ingress Protection rating of any device, you have to determine the application and the venue of the device first. Will it be indoor or outdoor? If it is to be put outdoors, then you have to carefully choose an ideal IP-rated device to make sure it will be weatherproof and waterproof.

IP rating shows the suitability for LED screens to adapt to environmental conditions, be it indoor or outdoor. Getting a device with an IP rating has more guarantees rather than just getting a device that is claimed to be waterproof without any IP code or standard to support it. Some devices are being overclaimed for marketing purposes. Thus, be a smart consumer and trust IP rating more than mere words.

Method of controlling LED display with LED video processor

Introduction

With the development of technology, in the world of digital signage and large-scale displays, LED screens have become the go-to solution for high-quality, vibrant visuals. As one of the core accessories of LED display systems, LED video processors plays a crucial role in ensuring that screen content is clear, accurate and presented in the correct format. So, how does the video processor control the LED display? In this blog, we will deeply analyze the main functions of the LED video processor and how it optimizes the performance of LED displays.

What is an LED video processor?

An LED video processor, often referred to as the “brain” of an LED display system, is a specialized hardware device designed to take video input signals, process them, and deliver them in a way that the LED display can properly interpret and display.

While LED screens can display a variety of resolutions, they often rely on video processors to ensure that the input video is compatible with the screen’s resolution, aspect ratio, and color settings.

What are the components of an LED video processor?

An LED video processor is composed of several key components, including an input interface module (for receiving various video signals), a signal processing chip (responsible for image processing and signal conversion), an output interface module (for transmitting the processed signal to the LED display), a control system (for managing display settings), and memory and power modules (to ensure stable system operation). These components work together to ensure that video signals are displayed on the LED screen with optimal quality.

How does an LED video processor work?

An LED video processor acts as an intermediary between the video source (e.g., a computer, camera, or media player) and the LED display. Here’s a step-by-step look at how the processor controls the LED screen:

Signal conversion

The LED video processor can receive input signals from different sources such as HDMI, DVI or VGA. The processor converts these signals into a format that the LED display can understand. Different displays may have different requirements, so this conversion process ensures that the screen works regardless of the signal source.

Scaling and resolution matching

One of the main functions of an video processor is to adjust the resolution of the input video to match the original resolution of the LED screen. For example, if the LED screen resolution is 1920×1080 and the input video is 1280×720, the processor will enlarge the video to fit the screen without losing quality. Correct scaling ensures that content is not distorted or pixelated.

Color correction and calibration

LED displays require precise color control to ensure that content is vibrant and accurate. LED video processors adjust parameters such as color range, brightness, and contrast to optimize image quality. This is especially important for large displays, where consistent color and brightness are essential.

Image processing

To further enhance video quality, video processors use a variety of image processing techniques. These techniques include deinterlacing, noise reduction, and motion compensation, which help eliminate visual imperfections and improve image clarity.

Multi-window and picture-in-picture (PIP) capabilities

Advanced LED video processors allow users to display multiple video sources simultaneously. This feature is useful for large events or digital signage, where multiple content can be displayed simultaneously. For example, you can display live videos, slideshows, and logos in different areas of the same screen.

Synchronization and latency reduction

LED video wall processors ensure that all parts of a large display remain in sync. Without synchronization, different screen areas may display different video frames, resulting in inconsistent images. Modern video processor also minimize latency, ensuring that the content displayed on the screen is as close to real-time as possible.

Edge blending and image stitching

For display settings using multiple LED panels, the video processor provides edge blending and image stitching capabilities. This helps create a seamless visual effect between different panels, ensuring smooth image transitions and a more harmonious overall display.

Why are LED video processors essential?

Without a dedicated video processor, an LED display would not be able to efficiently handle input from various sources. Here are some reasons why LED video processors are indispensable:

Better image quality

Ensure that the video displayed on the LED screen is clear, vibrant, and aligned with the screen resolution.

Flexible input

Can connect and process multiple video sources, eliminating the need for multiple devices.

Synchronization

Ensure that the display of different panels remains synchronized, providing a smooth and consistent viewing experience.

Content management

It provides advanced content management capabilities such as multi-window display and real-time updates.

Conclusion

In conclusion, an LED video processor is a key component in any LED display system. By handling signal conversion, scaling, color correction, and synchronization, the video processor ensures that content is displayed on the screen in the best quality. Whether setting up a large outdoor LED screen or a small indoor LED display, choosing the right video processor can significantly impact the performance of the LED display.

Understanding how these processors work will not only help maintain a high-quality visual experience, but also ensure the efficient and reliable operation of LED display systems.

Composition of full-color LED screen

Introduction:

In a city, whether it is a large city or a small and medium-sized city, we can often see LED full color screens. Especially in urban commercial centers, whether in or outside shopping malls, tall LED full color screens are everywhere, and have even become a symbol of the city center. Because of this, more and more people want to know about full color LED screens, because it is crucial to choose what kind of media to promote their brand or service. Therefore, this article will introduce the composition of the full color LED screen in detail, and explain how its various components work together to create a colorful dynamic display effect.

What is a full color LED screen?

The full color LED screen is made up of many individual modular LED displays. Since LED displays can be seamlessly spliced, the entire large screen looks like a whole, and each LED display is composed of LED modules, control systems, LED cabinets, power supplies, and electronic components. Cabinet materials include iron, aluminum, die casting aluminum, magnesium alloy, carbon fiber, etc. Among them, iron and die-cast aluminum are the most commonly used LED display cabinets. LED full color screens are widely used in advertising, stadiums, and stage events. Their high brightness, bright colors, and energy-saving characteristics make them ideal for indoor and outdoor use.

Composition of a full color LED screen

The composition of a full color LED screen can be divided into several key components:

LED module

Each LED module consists of multiple pixels, which are usually arranged in a grid. Each pixel contains three LED diodes – red, green, and blue. By mixing the three main colors of light with different brightness, a full color display is achieved. The resolution of the LED screen depends on the size and number of pixels in each module, which also affects the sharpness and quality of the image.

Control system

The control system is the heart of an LED display. It receives input from a video source such as a computer, media player or camera and processes the data to determine the color and brightness that each pixel should display. Advanced control systems are usually divided into synchronous control and asynchronous control, which can enable real-time adjustments and dynamic content updates.

Power supply

LED screens require constant power supply to maintain brightness and performance. High-quality power supply units (PSUs) are essential for stable operation and energy efficiency. PSUs convert the input voltage to the specific requirements of LED modules.

LED display cabinets

The LED modules are installed in the LED display cabinet, which acts as a structural frame to hold multiple modules together and protect the modules and wiring from environmental factors for easy maintenance. For larger LED displays, multiple cabinets can be spliced together into a seamless display.

Heat dissipation system

LED displays generate heat during continuous operation, so an effective heat dissipation system is important to prevent overheating, which can affect the display and shorten the lifespan of components. Many high-performance screens are equipped with fans or heaters to keep the system cool.

How to generate color on LED screens

The full-color LED screen produces colors through additive color mixing. Each pixel combines red, green, and blue LEDs at varying intensities to create a specific color. For example:

When all three LEDs are at full brightness, they produce white light.

When only red and green are illuminated, the pixel appears yellow.

By adjusting the brightness of each LED diode, any color in the visible spectrum can be achieved.

Advantages of full color LED screen

Full-color LED screens offer many advantages:

Brightness and Visibility: These screens are bright enough for outdoor use, even in direct sunlight.

High Contrast and Color Quality: LED technology provides vivid colors and sharp contrast.

Long Lifespan and Durability: LED displays are energy-efficient and durable, with a longer operational lifespan than many traditional display technologies.

Full color LED display applications

Due to its versatility and influence, the full color LED screen is widely used in a variety of applications, including:

Advertising billboards: Large LED screens attract attention with high resolution visuals, ideal for outdoor advertising.

Stadiums and arenas: LED screens display live action shots and scores in real time.

Stage and Event Backgrounds: Concerts and events use LED screens to create dynamic, immersive backgrounds.

Outdoor full color LED screen for stadium

Conclusion

Under the current economic conditions, the application field of full color LED screen is extremely broad. According to its application field, it can be divided the into outdoor LED full color dispaly and indoor LED full color display.

Outdoor full color LED display: Due to the long distance of outdoor viewing, LED displays with a large pixel pitch (e.g. P10, P8, P6, P5, etc.) are usually selected, so that there is no grainy feeling when viewing.

Indoor full color LED display: In general, indoor viewing distances are relatively close and the size is relatively small, so it is more appropriate to choose a small-pitch LED display.

By knowing the details above about full-color LED screens, we can gain insight into why they are so popular in today’s industries. Whether in advertising, entertainment or public information, these screens continue to change the way we experience digital content.

Regarding Programmed DOOH

The outdoor advertising industry has existed for more than a decade. From the age of billboard advertising to digital out-of-home today, the industry has been evolving constantly to tackle ever-changing consumer behaviours. One of the latest innovations in the industry is the programmatic DOOH or pDOOH. But what exactly is it?

In this beginner guide, we will dive into some important topics about programmatic DOOH. What is programmatic DOOH? What are the benefits of using it? And how does it work?

What is DOOH?

To explain what exactly programmatic DOOH is, we will have to look at what is DOOH first.

DOOH or digital out-of-home is a form of outdoor advertising which uses digital technology to deliver content to people in public places.

Unlike traditional out-of-home (OOH) advertising which uses static billboards and displays, DOOH advertising utilizes digital screens such as digital billboards, digital signages, video walls, and digital kiosks.

The usage of digital screens allows a more flexible content delivery which supports a wide range of digital media formats such as videos, images, texts, and animations.

The biggest difference between traditional OOH and DOOH is that OOH is used to display only a static advertisement at one time, whereas DOOH can be used to display multiple advertisements.

In short, DOOH makes both ads rotating and scheduling possible. Advertisers are no longer needed to run their ads 24/7. Instead, they can now reach their target audiences more effectively by running ads at the most suitable time periods.

What is Programmatic DOOH?

Programmatic DOOH (pDOOH) is an upgraded form of DOOH advertising where the process of media purchasing is becoming more convenient.

For both OOH and DOOH, advertisers or business owners will need to contact the billboard owners directly to purchase any media spaces. Besides, many other details such as content delivery, content schedule, and content formats are needed to be discussed and arranged personally with the billboard owners.

The purchasing process can become tedious especially when the advertiser has a huge number of advertisements or campaigns to run. Things can get complicated too if there are too many different locations and media owners involved.

Programmatic DOOH provides a single online platform where the buying and selling of digital ad spaces are automated. Besides, advertisers can also buy spaces only when their specified conditions are met. For example, a workshop that sells weatherproof tyres will want to display its advertisements only when there are rains in the targeted locations.

How Programmatic DOOH Works?

Programmatic DOOH provides high flexibility in running your outdoor campaign. The very first thing you need to do is to look for a reliable and trustworthy programmatic DOOH platform.

The programmatic platform acts as a middleman in the media purchasing process. It helps to connect media owners and media buyers conveniently.

Media buyers do not need to get in touch directly with the media owners. Instead, buyers only need to bid, upload content, and set up what they want to do or buy via the platform’s user interface. This is what we called a Demand Side Platform (DSP).

Demand Side Platform is a platform where media buyers can specify the number of spaces, the targeting locations, the desired publish date or time, and other unique conditions such as weather conditions and foot traffic.

Once the media buyers have placed their bids, the platform will then communicate to a Supply Side Platform (SSP). SSP is a platform where media owners manage their advertising inventories or ad spaces from all kinds of digital screens.

When there is any advertising slot that meets the requirements of the media buyer, a transaction will be made if the bid is won. The media buyer’s advertisements will be then published automatically.

Benefits of Using Programmatic DOOH

Programmatic DOOH makes everything looks so easy and convenient. It offers some benefits to businesses and advertisers that other platforms or channels cannot offer.

Some of the mentionable benefits of using programmatic DOOH are

Run your campaign faster.
Data-driven campaign.
Flexible platform.
Reduce human error.
Transparent and competitive pricing.

Run Your Campaign Faster

Running an outdoor campaign is so much easier with programmatic DOOH. Unlike traditional outdoor advertising which could take up to days or months to deal with the media owner and to wait for available spaces, securing ad slots is so much faster with pDOOH.

As long as you have a laptop, a computer or a smartphone with an internet connection, you can run your campaign with just a few clicks. Uploading and updating content can be done easily too.

Data-driven Campaign

Data is extremely important for any business. Same goes to the outdoor advertising campaign. You will want to run your campaign with some specified goals. You will want to achieve the best possible outcome by making the correct decision.

To make correct decisions, using external data in your campaign is a great idea. Data analysis can be hard to implement in traditional advertising campaigns. However, since programmatic DOOH uses various digital technologies to gather audience data and demographics, it is possible to offer highly personalized and engaging experiences to your target audience.

Some of the external data that can be utilized are traffic volume count, age, gender, dwell times, temperature, and weather conditions. All these data can be collected by the DOOH networks via sensors, cameras, and mobile location data.

For example, if you are promoting cosmetic products, you might want to find an ad space that is located in a crowded area where there are more women than men.

Programmatic DOOH uses a data-driven approach to help businesses to do better with their targeting. Besides, pDOOH can also help to measure campaigns’ performance by collecting data such as impressions, footfall traffic, and dwell time.

Flexible Platform

Programmatic DOOH is highly flexible in many areas. Technically, advertisers are free to set any criteria or requirements to target their audiences more effectively. The advertisements will only get triggered when their specified requirements are met.

Besides, pDOOH has pushed location-based advertising to its next level. There are many digital screens in multiple locations in a city, and pDOOH makes all of them easily accessible. No matter who are the media owners behind all these digital screens, ad space purchasing of different locations can be done within one single online platform.

In addition to the two flexible areas mentioned above, programmatic DOOH also offers flexibility in terms of cancellation policy. You can always pause, update or stop your campaign anytime you want. Advertisers are not tied to complicated contracts when they buy ad spaces via pDOOH.

Reduce Human Error

Programmatic DOOH helps to automate many tasks online. From choosing ad space to online payment, not much manual work is involved. When there is less manual work or fewer parties involved, human error can be reduced greatly. In short, pDOOH helps businesses to deliver content effectively with utmost accuracy.

Transparent and Competitive Pricing

The programmatic DOOH platform is an exchange where media buyers and owners gather together. To attract media buyers or advertisers, media owners will have to display their best prices on the platform.

This level of transparency is definitely one of the biggest advantages to media buyers. Buyers can now compare different pricing plans and make the most suitable decisions.

The transparent and competitive environment also encourages media owners to focus on providing the best services, which will ultimately benefit the media buyers in the end.

Conclusion

Programmatic DOOH is still a new player in the market. Although it still has a long way to grow and become mature, it has already displayed its potential to become one of the most effective advertising channels in the future.
