A video wall consists of large screens pushed together. Video walls often make use of one projector mounted behind each screen or a number of projection modules mounted together. Businesses commonly use information video walls to project presentations for meetings, although they can also be very effective advertising mediums or to provide concert or sporting event attendees with a front-row seat view from any venue vantage point. event

LCD video walls and LED video walls are both great for reaching many customers, since their relative size makes images clear across distances. If you want to buy video walls or rent them, consider:

1. The environment in which you plan to use the walls;

2. How many people need to see your message;

3. Whether you want to run one wall to wall video or show several images concurrently.

You may need a digital video wall processor if you want to display more than one picture concurrently from your PC or CCTV generated files. Another option you need to consider for your video wall rental or purchase is size. Video walls for events come in several basic sizes –- 2 x 2 through 5 x 5 –- or are customizable.

The best contacts and resources to help you get it done

Use LED video walls for daytime events

If you need video walls for events in the daylight or for events where you plan to use smoke or lasers, LED video walls are your best choice. LED video walls are very bright and project light instead of reflecting it, so they do not look faded in bright sunlight or when used with spotlights, smoke, or other special effects at an event. An LED video wall rental is ideal for an outside show, a concert, or a sporting event.

I recommend: GoVision can help you set up an LED video wall at your next event. They specialize in sporting events and concerts. LSV offers a range of video walls for concerts and other outdoor events.

Acquire an LCD video wall for meetings, trade shows and conferences

When you cannot mount a very thick monitor in the space available, an LCD video wall -- which is often 6' in total depth, including a wall mount -- is ideal. LCD video walls are great for meetings, trade shows, and conferences, where bulky equipment is impractical.

I recommend: ICCRents can provide use of LCD video walls for your next event. Your business can also purchase LCD video walls through Express Technologies Corporation.

Buy or rent a large DLP video wall for marketing

A DLP video wall offers a cube or TV style screen that is about 36' to 44'. Best of all, a DLP video wall can make use of multiple panels for your big-picture needs and the space between panels is just 3/16' on many models. A DLP video wall is an excellent choice for marketing and advertising, since the large format allows more potential customers to see your ad.

I recommend: Shaw Associates sells DLP video products as well as other video walls. 9X Media can provide your business with quality DLP video walls.Shaw Associates

Tips & Tactics

Helpful advice for making the most of this Guide

• •  Keep in mind that most video walls are meant to capture a giant image or video stream and, therefore, these products are less about resolution than image size. A few manufacturers now make HDTV giant screens, but so far only the largest companies are able to customize these products.
• •  When planning what to put on a video wall, select your marketing message carefully and do not choose any ads that require a high resolution to be effective.
