Planar launches DirectLight Essential Series, the company’s newest line of fine pixel pitch LED video walls, which provide a solution that is well-suited for budget-conscious customers who require high-quality imagery. Addition of the Planar DirectLight Essential Series rounds out the Planar DirectLight family. It offers 27-inch cabinets available in 0.7, 0.9, 1.2 and 1.5 millimetre pixel pitches and presents deeper blacks and sharper visuals with a 30,000:1 contrast ratio and high refresh rate of 3,840Hz. It is compatible with both the Planar WallDirector Video Controller and LED controllers from ColorLight.
Designed with Chip-on-Board (COB) LED technology, Planar DirectLight Essential Series video wall displays offer high pixel density, energy efficiency and exceptional durability, making it ideal for high-traffic environments such as lobbies, retail spaces, hospitality venues, conference rooms, classrooms and regional broadcast studios. Its high durability also makes the solution well-suited for interactive touch applications. The solution also features a proprietary driver integrated circuit (IC) designed for COB technology. Specially built to mitigate issues related to brightness and colour uniformity, the driver IC precisely controls power and data to each COB LED. With the driver IC, LEDs are tested at the wafer level to meet brightness, power and colour parameters.
