So … I have not been through Vancouver’s airport in ages, and certainly haven’t seen in person some …
LG Now Marketing The Kinetic LED Wall Product It Used As Booth Eye Candy At Big Trade Shows This Year September 24, 2024 by Super User The previous post on here goes into Panasonic’s water vapor projection system, and in looking to make a point about trade show eye candy that never gets commercialized, I was going to use LG’s stands at ISE and InfoComm as Exhibit A – because of the Korean electronics giant fronting its mega-stands with a shape-shifting …
Turns Out Panasonic’s Profoundly Underwhelming Mist Projection System Is Also Profoundly Impractical For Pro AV Uses September 24, 2024 by Super User One of the things I wanted to see when walking the floor at InfoComm back in June was an eye candy thing that Panasonic was touting at its stand – a super-fine water spray system that created a mist that had enough volume to it to show projected visuals. I walked in to the stand, …
NBA’s Miami Heat Incorporates Giant LED Torch Inside Its New Center-Hung Scoreboard At Home Arena September 23, 2024 by Super User This is a good example of how LED introduces more design flexibility for digital displays in large venues – a giant LED sculpture shaped like a flame that fills the space inside an otherwise floating center-hung scoreboard and replay screen array at the arena where the NBA’s Miami Heat plays.

Billboard-Sized Video Walls Now Greet Int’l Travellers As They Stumble Off Long Flights To Melbourne September 11, 2024 by Super User Maybe it’s just the old ops guy in me, but I see installations like this impressive one in Melbourne, Australia, and feel relieved when I notice someone had the smarts or hard-learned experience to scheme in a kick-rail system on the walkway, so roller bags don’t shred the bottom part of the LED video walls. …
Near-Transparent LED On Foil Turns Seoul Restaurant Window Into Billboard September 11, 2024 by Super User This is one of those somewhat transparent, super-thin foil displays mounted inside a big window for a restaurant, I think, in Seoul.
