With the continuous advancement of digital technology, the exhibition hall is no longer a simple product display space, but an immersive experience space.

As the core visual carrier of the exhibition hall, how to choose the right LED display is very important. Faced with a wide range of LED screens on the market, do you know how to choose? Which LED screen is the most suitable? SightLED will guide you the details of exhibition hall LED screen selection.

Pre-design environment analysis of exhibition hall LED screen

Lighting conditions:

The lighting environment of the exhibition hall directly affects the visual effect of the LED screen. In a strong light environment (such as a car exhibition hall, a glass curtain wall exhibition hall), you need to choose a ≥1000cd/㎡high-brightness screen to counteract ambient light interference;

in a dark light environment (such as a science and technology museum, an art exhibition hall), we recommend the use of an adaptive dimming technology 800-1000cd/㎡LED screen to avoid the screen being too bright and destroying the sense of immersion.

In addition, for mixed lighting scenes, you can also use HDR technology + dynamic light sensing module. The brightness of the LED screen is adjusted in real time through the ambient illumination detection module to achieve a harmonious effect.

For example: A car brand showroom uses SightLED P2.5 high-brightness LED screen. With the dynamic dimming system, the vehicle details can be clearly displayed under strong light during the day. it automatically switches to low-brightness mode at night, reducing energy consumption by 40%.

Space layout:

The matching of viewing distance and pixel pitch is the key to visual comfort. According to the formula “minimum viewing distance = pixel pitch (mm) × 1000”.

For a small exhibition hall of 20㎡, we recommend P1.5-P2.5 LED display, and the size is recommended to be 4m×2.25m;

For a standard exhibition hall of 100㎡, you can choose a pitch of P2.5-P3, and the radius of the curved screen is 8-10m to enhance the sense of wrapping.

In addition, for high-rise spaces, you can vertically install P2.5-P6 column screen to form a three-dimensional visual matrix.

Design tips:

The curvature radius of the curved screen is recommended to be ≥ 1.5 times the screen width to avoid image distortion

The installation height of the column screen needs to consider the audience’s elevation angle. We recommend that the center of the screen be flush with the line of sight

To ensure structural safety, special-shaped screens (such as wavy and spherical) need to be 3D modeled in advance

Design style

LED screens are not only display tools, but also an integral part of space aesthetics. If you have an industrial-style exhibition hall, you can match it with film transparent LED screen to show the modular mechanical beauty;

If it is a minimalist space, you can use ultra-thin wall installation (frame ≤ 3mm) to achieve the visual effect of “screen as wall”;

For future technology exhibition halls, you can try a transparent screen + AR interactive combination to create a virtual and real experience;

Things you need to consider when choosing an exhibition hall LED screen:

1. Resolution adaptation formula

• Theoretical formula: Required resolution = viewing distance (m)/340×screen height (m)
• Practical case: 2-meter high screen with a viewing distance of 3 meters, We recommend ≥3840×2160 resolution.
• However, you need to pay attention to the synergy between resolution and pixel pitch. For example, the P1.5 pitch screen has a good 4K resolution at a viewing distance of 3 meters.

2. Dynamic brightness management

• Ambient illumination detection module: Real-time collection of ambient brightness through light sensors
• Automatic brightness adjustment algorithm: Dynamically adjust screen brightness according to ambient light changes
• Energy-saving mode trigger threshold: It is recommended to set the ambient light to ≤20% and automatically switch to low-brightness mode

3. Advanced requirements for contrast

• Static contrast ≥5000:1 is the basic threshold
• HDR10/HLG standard support can significantly improve the performance of dark field details.
• For example, in the museum cultural relic display scene, the high-contrast screen can more realistically restore the texture of the cultural relic.

4. Technical threshold for refresh rate

• Basic requirements: ≥3840Hz (avoid scanning line problems during shooting)
• Film-level standard: 7680Hz (meet 24 frames/second movie-level playback)

New standard for viewing angle

• Horizontal viewing angle ≥160°, vertical viewing angle ≥140°
• Brightness uniformity requires center-to-edge attenuation ≤15%.
• Curved screens need to pay special attention to viewing angle consistency. it is recommended to use multi-signal source synchronous control technology.

6. Color management system

• Color gamut coverage: ≥90% DCI-P3 (meeting film-level color requirements)
• Color depth support: 10bit starting (1.07 billion color display)
• Color accuracy index: ΔE≤3 (professional color calibration standard)

Common misunderstanding warning

• Blind pursuit of minimum pixel pitch: you should calculate it in combination with viewing distance according to actual needs need
• Ignoring equipment heat dissipation requirements: it is recommended to reserve ≥30% heat dissipation space
• Underestimating content production costs: the cost of high-quality content production may account for 30% of the total project budget
• Ignoring daily maintenance channels: it is recommended to reserve a maintenance channel ≥80cm wide

Future exhibition hall LED screen trends and innovation directions:

1. Micro LED technology breakthrough

0.4mm pixel pitch products are about to be mass-produced, achieving a “grain-free” visual experience. Samsung, Sony and SightLED etc companies have launched concept products. We expecte to enter the commercial application stage in the next three years.

2. Intelligent interaction upgrade

The perception LED screen with integrated millimeter-wave radar can realize gesture recognition, crowd counting and other functions. For example, museum exhibits can automatically adjust the display content according to the length of time the audience stays.

3. Sustainable design

Solar power supply + recyclable materials application has become a new trend. An international exhibition uses photovoltaic energy storage LED screen to achieve 100% green power supply.

4. Spatial computing integration

The deep linkage between LED screen and AR/VR/MR creates a mixed reality experience of virtual and real symbiosis. For example, the car showroom can project vehicle parameters on the screen in real time through AR technology.

Conclusion:

The choice of exhibition hall LED screen is not just a simple technical parameter. We recommend that you build a modern digital exhibition hall that combines technological beauty and functional effectiveness.
