Organising an event or exhibition once involved printing artwork, corporate graphics, background images, and so on onto paper, plastic, or other materials. Now, digital technology has largely eliminated the need for cumbersome traditional visuals.
This has a number of significant benefits. Here’s a look at how tech such as video walls and LED screens can enhance events and exhibitions.
LED walls capture the attention of audiences
LED video walls can offer high-resolution displays with vivid colours, deep contrasts and crisp clear images. This means that the screens can be viewed from a range of angles and distances with no loss of visual impact. At a trade show, this means that passers by will be instinctively drawn to your stand and encouraged to find out more about your business.
Video walls also provide a stunning visual stage backdrop for conferences or concerts, enhancing the audience experience and making the event more engaging and memorable. No matter what position the attendees are viewing the screen from, they will have a far superior view compared to traditional static visuals or light projections.
LED walls are versatile
LED walls can be produced to a wide range of specifications. For example, there’s practically no limit on the dimensions of the screen so they can be custom made to fit any space. They can be curved or shaped to fit around the form of a wall or other architectural feature. They can even be fitted to ceilings, floors, and stair risers.
LED walls are not just for indoor events either. The screens can be manufactured to withstand harsh weather and environmental conditions with no loss of quality or durability. This means that even when exposed to extreme weather such as bright sunlight, high temperatures, or ice and mist and rain, the performance will be unimpaired.
If the screen needs to be fitted to the side of a building, then it is possible to minimise its impact when not in use by opting for a flexible and transparent screen that will be unobtrusive. This may be a particular consideration for historic buildings or areas where local planning restrictions apply.
LED Walls are cost-effective
LED walls can be rented for a one-off event, or purchased as a long term investment. Either way, they can prove to be a more cost effective alternative to traditional printed graphics or props. Once bought, they can be reused time and again, as opposed to static images that are rendered obsolete after the event and need to be reproduced each time.
When considered with the improved effectiveness and audience engagement that LED technology can bring, this can bring a healthy return on investment. It is even possible to use the screens to generate passive income by displaying advertisements for complementary products and services to your own business, or messages from sponsors and partners.
LED walls are also more energy efficient than other methods such as light projectors, reducing your costs and also helping to meet carbon net zero targets and sustainability commitments.
LED Walls can adapt to a wide range of content
There’s no need to stick to displaying your corporate identity or static images. The power of LED technology is now wide-ranging, and you can use the screens to display anything from videos and animations to social media feeds and immersive virtual reality 3D experiences.
This helps to bring the event to life and encourages audience participation and interaction. The content can be programmed in advance and changed with ease throughout the event, ensuring it stays relevant and does not lose impact.
A final word…
When investing in your screen, choose a reputable supplier who is happy to advise you on the suitability of the product for your intended use and the location of the screen. This way you will be able to feel confident that you are buying the right product that will be durable and easy to manage and maintain.
It may also be beneficial to choose a supplier who offers additional services such as the installation of the screen and any sound systems at your venue. This way you will only need to deal with one point of contact, saving you time and effort and minimising the risk of any unsatisfactory experiences.
