Absen’s Top 10 LED Videowall Projects of H1 2024 – Videoguys

In this article from Absen, the company showcases its Top 10 Benchmark Projects from H1 2024, reinforcing its position as a leader in the global LED display market. By forming strategic partnerships, Absen has successfully delivered cutting-edge LED display solutions across diverse applications, including virtual production, sports arenas, staging & rental, retail, and digital out-of-home (DOOH). These projects reflect Absen’s adaptability to market demands and its commitment to creating high-performance, visually stunning displays.
One of the most notable achievements was Absen’s collaboration with Trilogy Studios, where the company provided its largest virtual production setup to date. This impressive installation spans more than 1,100 square meters and features Absen’s PR Series LED displays with pixel pitches of 1.5mm, 2.5mm, and 5.2mm. The advanced LED volume technology is transforming the film and television production industries by offering incredibly lifelike visuals, enhanced contrast ratios, and unmatched color fidelity, making virtual environments look hyper-realistic.

Absen also made waves in the sports technology sector by developing the world’s first LED sports floor screen for the FIBA U19 Women’s Basketball World Cup in Spain. Created in partnership with ASB LumiFlex, this innovative 4.8mm pixel pitch LED floor screen redefines sports flooring, enhancing the viewing and interactive experience. This groundbreaking technology has already been featured in major events like the NBA All-Star Weekend and the Basketball Champions League Final Four.
In the world of entertainment production, Absen’s NT2.9 LED displays took center stage at the Weibo Awards Ceremony, one of China’s most prestigious entertainment events. These displays provided breathtaking visual effects, dynamic sponsor promotions, and interactive participation for audiences. Similarly, at the “FREE SOUL” World Tour by Ronghao Li in Singapore, Absen’s LYRA Series high-transparency LED displays delivered an immersive viewing experience with perfect color reproduction and ultra-wide viewing angles, setting a new standard in live event visuals.

Absen also demonstrated its expertise in command centers and corporate showrooms. The Hubei Yihug Command Center utilizes Absen’s Ultra HD KLCOB1.2 LED screen with micro-LED technology, improving operational efficiency and real-time information display. In the iSoftStone Showroom in China, Absen’s 1.2mm pixel pitch displays enhanced the brand experience with flexible layouts and stunning visuals.
Outdoors, Absen is setting new standards in large-format displays. Suzhou now features the largest naked-eye 3D outdoor LED screen, using Absen’s 10,000nit high-brightness technology to deliver ultra-HD visuals that captivate audiences. Similarly, the Shangrao Game Industry Centre boasts Absen’s cutting-edge naked-eye 3D display with a seamless double right-angle connection, offering vibrant, realistic visuals that elevate the building’s architectural design.

Absen’s digital out-of-home (DOOH) solutions were further showcased with a stunning 10,000nit high-brightness LED display at the Jakarta Stock Exchange. This installation delivers visually impactful content while promoting energy efficiency, seamlessly blending into the architectural design and enhancing the overall experience.
In conclusion, Absen’s Top 10 Benchmark Projects from H1 2024 illustrate the company’s commitment to innovation and excellence in the LED display market. From virtual production to sports technology and beyond, Absen continues to push the boundaries of visual display solutions. As the second half of 2024 approaches, expect even more groundbreaking projects and advancements from this leading LED manufacturer.
