THE DISPLAY BATTLE: LED DISPLAYS VS. PROJECTION
The utilization of LED’s during an event has been around for quite a long time. Initially LED shows were for open air and they used DIP LED’s, which comprises of individual red, green and blue diodes that together create the picture you see on the screen.

The most recent innovation in LED shows use SMD or, Surface Mounted Device, which uses a single picture diode. The SMD chip is made of some similar individual red, green and blue diodes that are generally together in one chipset.
DIP lamp technology is still being used today for most outside billboards and expansive display shows due to their brightness and dependability. This is a worthy application since the watcher is sufficiently far enough away from the show, so the picture gives off an impression of being sharp and clear.
If you somehow managed to get nearer to the display, you would experience issues with reading what is on the display, and additionally attempting to figure out what the picture is on the display. This is the part where SMD Technology assumes control. SMD Chipsets are utilized today for most indoor and open air applications for the rental and staging markets as they are typically brief indoor/outside screens. The pitch number determines the division between each SMD chip or pixel. The smaller the number, the higher the quality of the show. LED’s will usually have a light life regularly appraised as 100,000 hours. Currently, a majority of the temporary outdoor displays are between 3mm-8mm in resolution.
Indoor LED displays can have high resolutions such as 1.2mm, which can make a 4K LED display. This sort of display is extremely delicate and is utilized for permanent installations for example, advertising or, on the other hand for TV Stations to be utilized as settings on the news work desk sets. Most indoor occasions today utilize SMD chipsets with pixel checks of 2.9mm to 6mm. The most common SMD chipsets with pixel checks being used right now is 3mm.
LED displays have a hand over projection because of how the picture is seen. A projector must project the picture onto a surface from a light reflected off a mirror surface. This tends to obscure the picture even with the costliest higher lumen projectors. All projectors utilizing light technology tend to gradually lose its brightness and ordinarily have a light life somewhere in the range of 300 to 1,000 hours.
New laser projector innovation has broadened this life, however, these projectors still tend to blur at the surface that it is projecting. Fortunately, LED displays creates a much sharper picture with better brightness capability than a projector because it uses direct light.
The way to measure projector brightness is by “LUX” or “Lumens”, which is a reflected light estimation. LED displays are measured utilizing “NITS” which is an immediate light estimation. As a result of the distinction, LED displays can be utilized as a part of direct daylight with a NITS rating in the range of 2000 and 5000 NITS, though a projector would not be able to project a clear image in direct sunlight.
This same principal also includes indoor LED displays. The displays can run from 1200 to 2500 NITS. This results in a picture that is much brighter plus more contrast, preferable color saturation and replication over a projector can create. It is typical these days for an event to only use LED displays and have no projectors. Over the recent years, customers are shifting their requests from using projection to only using LED displays for their events for now on as they enjoy the higher resolution, clearness, and shade of the LED events.
