This is an interesting use of an LED video wall at the front of a very public bank branch – the TD Canada Trust branch at Toronto’s Union Station, a hub for passenger rail, commuter rail and commuter buses, as well as a main subway stop.
The branch has a big 12 foot by 6 foot LED display with original creative developed by Montreal’s Float4. The creative integrates a variety of data sources to reflect downtown Toronto’s weather in real time. “Clouds drift, rain falls, and lighting shifts, all synchronized with a weather API while lighting and color palettes adjust according to the time of day. The generative landscape unfolds across four layers, ensuring a perpetually evolving visual journey.”
The display runs off a single 8k Realmotion server (Realmotion is a tech spin-out from Float4).
“Thanks to a tailored CMS,” says Float4, “the TD team can seamlessly manage content uploads and schedules tailored to their specific requirements. This combination of cutting-edge technology and creative control ensures an engaging and adaptable digital display.”
If it’s been a few years since you’ve been through Toronto and Union Station, the mass transit hub has undergone a massive, many-years-long overhaul that has resulted in “dingy” no longer being the first word that comes to mind when describing it.
