digiFLEX, the first-ever fully flexible LED video display
“It’s fantastic to have the efforts of the displayLED creative and technical team recognised in this way,” comments the company’s managing director, Graham Burgess. “digiFLEX is a product that really does take LED into new territories. This is the first time we have exhibited at PLASA and the amount of interest, not only in digiFLEX, but in all our products, was incredible. We have enquiries from across the rental and staging sector including TV shows, theatre productions, rock concerts and all manner of public venues.”
digiFLEX tiles measure 320mm (w) x 160mm (h) and flex smoothly horizontally and vertically. They weigh less than 6kg per square metre – less than 10% that of a traditional LED display. digiFLEX tiles can be used as a skin for pre-formed curved metal surfaces, its magnetic mounted making it quick and easy to install.
The system will accept all inputs including HD and uses our standard processing systems. The feed from the control system is DVI but it will accept anything a digiPRO, digiPRO HD or digiPILOT will accept.
