Their products are widely used in airports and parking facilities to enhance customer experiences by providing instructions and safety information. The company is known for its comprehensive customer service and technical support, focusing on custom solutions for specific applications.
LED Technology Basics
LED displays have varying viewing angles, determined by the horizontal and vertical points where light intensity is 50% of the maximum. The maximum viewing range is based on character height, with specific recommendations for pedestrian and vehicular traffic.
Resolution and Viewing Distance
Resolution refers to the number of pixels in a display area, with higher resolutions allowing for sharper graphics. Viewing distance and time impact the display's effectiveness, with character height recommendations tailored for different speeds and distances.

LIGHT-EMITTING DIODES (LEDS) are solid-state electronic devices that create light much more efficiently than traditional incandescent lamps. LEDs contain chemical compounds that emit light when electric current passes through them. These chemical compounds are modified to emit different colors of light. Unlike incandescent lamps, LEDs have no filaments that can burn out or fail. PIXELS are points of light that illuminate together to form letters, words and symbols. A pixel can be made up of a single LED, multiple LEDs of the same color or multiple LEDs of different colors. VIEWING ANGLE CONSIDERATIONS...

RESOLUTION is the number of pixels contained in a given physical area of a display. The more pixels in one square foot, the more detail can be displayed. While lower resolutions create larger characters which are viewable at farther distances, higher resolutions allow for sharper graphics and a wider variety of character sizes. The examples below show graphics as if they were displayed on a five-foot tall display. TEXT SIZE VIEWING RANGE Distance and viewing time directly affect the viewing range of a display. Aviation and parking facilities may use all of these distances depending on the location...
