Martin Launches LC Series of LED Video Screens
The LC Series from Martin Professional is a semi-transparent, modular system of lightweight LED panels (40 mm pixel pitch), perfect for displaying film, digital images and graphics. Brilliant for stages, TV studios and commercial applications, the extremely bright units offer true RGB possibilities for spectacular results.
As the LC units are semi-transparent, they can be used in an array of applications and allow the seamless integration of moving images, lighting and set design. The panels can move through a range of intensity, from a solid wall of images and color to near-invisibility and allow light, air, and effects to pass through.
The variety and depth of achievable colors in the LC series, combined with a brilliant output, allows the accurate broadcast of digital media, which remains true to the source formatting and the color and intensity of other lights in the design.
The image from the LC panels appears seamless at about 30 meters, and the elliptical pixel design offers a very wide viewing angle of 100 degrees. The pixel pitch of 40mm is the perfect balance, offering high-quality resolution while making semi-transparency possible. The LC series of LED video screens offers extreme brightness of 1800 NITs, or 1800 candela per square meter (1800 cd/m2).
Although useful in a wide variety of applications, the LC series is specially prepared for video and TV applications - incorporating Genlock which prevents light-flicker to the camera’s “eye”. The LC series has already been used in several major television events to great success.
An extremely attractive aspect of the LC series is the simplicity with which it can tour. Much attention has been paid to ensure that the LC panels are built tough for the road and smart for easy set-up. The LC series offers an all-in-one solution with direct in/out DVI connections for video signal and simple daisy chain capability for up to six units. In addition, there are no external power supplies or drivers, saving both time and haulage costs. The LC series mounts using the industry standard truss system and each unit contains a switch-mode power supply that covers all worldwide voltages, so you are always ready to go - anywhere in the world.
Lightweight yet built tough, the modules are exceptionally service-friendly and come in a 2 x 1 meter or 1 x 1 meter size. They are useful in a wide variety of applications including stage, TV studios, trade shows, exhibitions, events, showrooms, and commercial spaces.
