“We are extremely proud to showcase our wide portfolio of display solutions from Planar, eyevis and Teracue to the European AV community,” said Thorsten Lipp, general manager for Planar EMEA. “The combined expertise and industry leadership of our brand companies allows us to deliver solutions that meet the diverse and growing needs of any European customer.”
Award-Winning Fine Pitch LED Solutions
Planar is the global leader in the LED display market and the narrow pixel pitch LED video wall segment, with marquee installations around the world. Expanding its LED portfolio to enable customers to deploy seamless LED video walls in a wider range of environments, Planar will launch its new Planar® ERO-LED™ (Extended Ruggedness and Optics™) technology at ISE 2019.
Planar ERO-LED protects fine pitch LED displays from dust, electro-static discharge, humidity, casual human contact and impact at both the front and edges, and enhances visual performance by significantly increasing contrast in ambient light. At varying levels of ambient light, Planar ERO-LED delivers three times the contrast compared to LED video walls without this protective coating. Customers can order a range of Planar video wall products with optional Planar ERO-LED technology.
In addition to Planar ERO-LED, Planar will demonstrate the high contrast ratio and color accuracy of high dynamic range (HDR) content on the Planar® TWA Series, taking advantage of the unique performance characteristics of Planar LED displays. Further, the following award-winning fine pitch LED product lines will be on display: the next-generation Planar® DirectLight® X LED Video Wall System, Planar® TWS Series, Planar® TVF Series and Planar® LED MultiTouch.
