LINCOLNSHIRE, Ill., Jan. XX, 2015 – New video wall and digital signage screens from LG
Electronics – a new
generation of commercial displays with wide viewing angles and super-narrow
bezels – are now available in the United States.
Previewed at industry
trade shows last year, these new energy efficient LG displays are designed to
create impactful digital signage installations across many industries,
from retail and transportation to lodging and hospitality.
“From immersive video walls to new hybrid TV ‘SuperSign’ displays to
LG’s new webOS platform, LG is providing commercial customers a broad array of
compelling technology solutions available now in the U.S,” said Clark Brown,
vice president, Digital Signage, LG Electronics USA.
LG Video Walls Create Immersive
Visual Experience
LG has begun shipments of
two new series in its portfolio of professional video wall products. LG’s LV77A and LV35A video wall displays offer
a compelling visual communication platform that can be easily installed,
maintained and managed. These displays can be arranged in a variety of
configurations up to a 15x15 matrix with 225 total displays, for an immersive
visual experience.
The super-narrow
bezel-to-bezel thickness of 3.5 mm (55-inch
class display) and 4.9 mm (47-inch class display) enables the monitors to be
connected seamlessly with each other to create a powerful and impactful video
wall. The LV77A and LV35A displays feature direct LED backlighting technology,
allowing for crisp, clear content in Full HD 1080p.
The core technology behind all LED video wall models is LG’s
IPS panel, which helps ensure accurate color saturation and contrast at
wide-angle viewing. LG’s unique display technology also provides a screen
surface temperature tolerance of up to 230 degrees Fahrenheit (110 degrees
Celsius), which helps alleviate overheating that can affect picture quality.
The 55-inch class (54.64 inches measured diagonally) 55LV77A
is currently available for $8,599, while the 55-inch class (54.64 inches
diagonal) 55LV35A and 47-inch class (46.96 inches diagonal) 47LV35A are available

and cost-effective commercial display solution ideally suited for environments
that attract large audiences, including bars and restaurants, airports and
malls.
The 42-, 47- and
55-inch class LS55A models feature a Full HD display, slim design and embedded
webOS technology. Combined with LG’s IPS technology, LED backlighting delivers
deep black levels and rich colors for amazing contrast and color detail,
bringing Full HD 1080p visuals to life.
LG’s webOS smart platform,
optimized for commercial displays, offers software providers a simpler, more intuitive,
all-in-one hardware and software solution. With webOS, developers can build
Web-based apps suitable for multiple platforms, including Android, iOS and
