Speaker: Robert Young
Title: Overcoming Challenges in LED Technology for Signage Applications
Abstract: The market for signage displays, particularly the indoor signage segment is growing rapidly. Current LED technology has neither the resolution nor the cost structure to support consumer applications. The speaker will discuss the current challenges with LED displays that has limited its use to commercial applications and propose improved technologies that are enabling the use of LED displays in consumer applications. These new technologies also enable higher brightness, more uniform, lower power LED displays apart from the higher resolution. The talk will cite examples of high resolution LED technology for indoor consumer applications such as Broadcast/TV studios, Retail Signage, Control Room and Military, Museums and indoor sports venues.
