What is Direct View LED Displays ?

DV-LED displays consist of thousands of tiny light-emitting diodes that work as individual pixels. This self-emissive structure creates vibrant colours, infinite contrast, and brightness levels of up to 5,000 nits or more. Unlike traditional LCDs with bezels, DV-LED panels connect seamlessly, allowing for large-scale, bezel-free video walls that feel truly immersive.

Key Advantages:

  • Unmatched brightness and clarity in direct sunlight
  • Infinite contrast with true blacks
  • Seamless scalability – no bezels between panels
  • Energy efficiency with smart brightness sensors
  • Long lifespan – 100,000+ hours

How DV-LED Works: Technology Behind the Brilliance

Traditional LCD screens use backlights that pass through liquid crystals and colour filters. DV-LED eliminates these layers. Each LED emits red, green, or blue light directly, enabling sharper visuals and better energy control.

  • Pixel Pitch: Determines resolution and viewing distance
  • P2.5 for close-up indoor use (retail, meetings)
  • P4–P6 for long-range outdoor visibility
