Leyard and Planar turn a large format Led video wall into a multi-touch display

This innovative development, which is based on a company-patented film that is placed on the led surface and protects it to offer a seamless and durable touchscreen, opens Led display technology to new collaborative applications that until now dominated LCD screens.

The participation of Leyard and planar in the recently completed edition 2017 of NAB Show in Las Vegas has captured both the eyes of professionals in the face of a visual system of great impact and their technological interest to know in detail the Leyard Led Multitouch system: the first multi-touch video wall so far that allows interactivity on very small pich Led screens.

This visual innovation is based on a film called Leyard PLTS (Pliable Led Touch Surface), patented by the company, which is placed on the surface of the Led and protects it, the result of which is a seamless touchscreen, lightweight and durable in large format videowall configuration in which multiple people can interact at once without led points being damaged.

Along with the film PLTS, This multi-touch Led videowall incorporates an imperceptible infrared frame around the screen, to achieve a highly sensitive response to any hand movement on the surface. A Leyard development that opens Led display technology to new collaborative applications that until now dominated LCD screens.

Leyard MultiTouch Led offers a seamless touch experience for high-resolution Led videowalls - up to 196 inches diagonally- of 1,2 millimetres of pixels. This technology allows up to 32 points of contact, so that multiple users can interact and collaborate simultaneously with the video wall seamlessly, with an accurate and intuitive tactile experience on a smooth, antistatic surface.

Unlike glass panels, that can trap heat and cause annoying reflexes in complex environments such as TV studios, Leyard Led MultiTouch integrates the manufacturer's patented PLTS technology to create an anti-reflective surface, eliminating annoying reflections.

The display offers a crisp, high-contrast image using high-quality LED, with pure blacks and a great uniformity of color and brightness, even when you look off-axis. In addition, PTLS film on the touch surface is very durable and can be easily removed to, below, apply it again, thus facilitating its maintenance.

In addition to the prominence of Leyard Led Multitouch during this contest, Leyard and Planar have also shown other state-of-the-art solutions on Ledy LCD for application in the broadcast environment, like the 27" Led video wall and 0,7 millimetres of pixel; the range of flat panel Led TWA video displays, whose density gives it an LCD surface feel.

Professionals were also able to learn about the Led DirectLight videowall system, with ultra-thin, seamless pitch pixel that facilitates ultra-thin front service installations indoors, as well as Leyard's TVH series and the Led CarbonLight display family, with adaptive surfaces designed to meet a wide range of applications.
