ADJ is introducing new LED video panels, the Design Series, which comprises four modular panels of different shapes that can be combined together to create a wide variety of video screen sizes and shapes. The DS4 (square), DS4T (triangle), DS4QC (quarter circle) and DS4HC (rectangle) can be linked together for video walls that fit with the shape of varied venues, stage sets or mobile lighting rigs. Offering a pixel pitch of 4.8mm, the Design Series panels utilize 3-in-1 SMD2020 LEDs to generate a brightness of 1200 NITS. The square panel has a pixel density of 104 x 104, which is equivalent to 43,264 per square meter, and the others have an equivalent density applied to their specific shapes and sizes. The panels have a recommended minimum viewing distance of 12.5ft. (3.8m) and a viewing angle of 160-degrees (horizontal) and 120-degrees (vertical).
The Design Series panels are designed for both fixed installations and one-off/touring productions and feature a unique locking system designed to join together multiple panels into screens of all shapes and sizes. Each panel is fitted with retractable plastic locking bars on the top and left sides, which slide into matching holes on the bottom and right sides of neighboring panels. A quarter turn on the end of each bar then locks the panels in place, with a reverse process to break apart the screen for transport and storage.Each panel is fitted with locking powerCON power cords and etherCON signal sockets on one side and matching trailing cables on the other. These are long enough to reach the corresponding sockets on neighboring panels, which its designers say has two advantages over systems that feature sockets for both inputs and outputs. “First, setting up and dismantling a screen is made quicker, as only half the number of sockets need to be connected/removed and there is no need to coil and pack away loose cords. Second, it is not necessary for owners to purchase power and data cables separately, which will amount to a significant saving for those investing in a sizeable Design Series setup,” according to the company press release.
The DS4 (Square) unit is 12 lbs. (5.5 kgs), with the other smaller panels weighing less. A full system of accessories – including video processors, rigging bars, cables, connectors and road cases – are also available. This includes a case that allows square panels to be stored and transported while connected together in pairs, reducing the time required to setup and dismantle a large multi-panel display.“The response to the ADJ AV Series over the past few years has been truly astounding,” comments ADJ USA’s National Sales Manager, Alfred Gonzales. “Users not only appreciate the brightness, reliability and affordability of our LED video panels but also the straightforward manner in which they fit together. That’s why I’m incredibly excited to introduce our new Design Series of LED panels, which builds on the success of the AV Series but introduces a new creative dimension. Custom-designed LED screens with curves and slants are now incredibly simple to create, both for fixed installations and temporary setups.”This unique collection of LED panels designed for interesting-shaped screens to be created easily and affordably and for production/rental companies looking for a flexible LED video system that can be deployed in different shapes and sizes depending on the requirements of each individual event.The complete ADJ Design Series range of 25 products, including four different panel shapes and a collection of supporting road cases and accessories, is available now from ADJ.
