Revolutionizing Visual Performance with Planar's CarbonLight
Planar has officially announced the launch of its next-generation CarbonLight CLI Series indoor LED video wall displays. These enhanced displays are designed to cater to a variety of applications, including rental and staging, in-camera virtual productions, extended reality, and more. With a focus on elevating visual performance, the new CarbonLight series aims to meet the demands of both temporary and permanent installations.
Key Features of the CarbonLight CLI Series
The Planar CarbonLight CLI Series brings forth significant advancements in video performance. With improvements in scan and refresh rates of up to two times, along with enhanced gray scale, users can expect breathtaking visuals. The series also boasts a maximum brightness of 1,500 nits, making it suitable for a range of environments. The introduction of a new 500x1000 cabinet size, in addition to the existing 500x500 size, facilitates quick setup and teardown, allowing for greater flexibility during events.
Lightweight Design for Ease of Use
One of the standout features of the CarbonLight CLI Series is its impressive weight reduction. With cabinets weighing as little as 4.3 kilograms (approximately 9.5 pounds), this lightweight design does not compromise durability and strength. The displays are engineered to support installations that reach heights of up to 20 meters (65.5 feet) and can carry loads exceeding 1,000 kilograms (over 2,200 pounds). This level of performance is essential for venues that require both reliability and aesthetic quality.
Versatile and Easy Installation
These displays offer versatile installation options. Users can suspend the displays, mount them to walls, or use them as free-standing units. The CarbonLight CLI Series features a design that allows for creative configurations, including installations on curved surfaces and at acute angles, thanks to its innovative 30-degree beveled edges. This flexibility makes it suitable for even the most intricate designs.
Durability and Maintenance Convenience
Planar has focused not only on performance but also on the practicality of maintenance. The new series includes features for improved thermal management and toolless installation, allowing for quick front and rear maintenance. This benefit simplifies both setup and teardown processes, ensuring that users can spend less time worrying about maintenance and more time enjoying high-quality visual displays.
Introducing the CarbonLight CLM Series
In addition to the CLI Series, Planar is excited to announce the addition of a new 5.9 millimeter pixel pitch model to its CarbonLight CLM Series. This series features transparent and non-transparent carbon fiber structures, making it an excellent choice for creating immersive viewing experiences at events and installations, whether indoors or outdoors.
Support for Diverse Applications
The CarbonLight CLM Series supports both simple and complex applications, allowing for rapid installation and maintenance without compromising the overall layout of the video wall. With models available in 6.9 and 10.9 millimeter pixel pitches, all offerings achieve an IP65 outdoor protection rating, ensuring longevity and durability in various environmental conditions.
Commitment to Innovation
The expansions in the Planar CarbonLight LED display family demonstrate Planar's commitment to providing cutting-edge visualization technologies. By delivering exceptional imagery, flexibility, and ease of use, Planar continues to address the needs and demands of a wide range of event applications, whether they are fixed or temporary installations.
