What types of displays are there?

Displays fall into three groups: fixed-size LCD/OLED panels, scrolling-text LED signs and full-colour LED screens that play video. Full-colour LED screens vary by location and form: indoor, outdoor, GOB, fine pitch, flexible, transparent, mesh, rental and poster/totem. ARLEDSCREEN sells, installs and services these LED display types under its own brand NXTIONSTAR, and also offers LCD/TV-type menu boards and freestanding screens (price on quote).

By technology

LCD/OLED: fixed factory sizes for TVs, monitors and small signage. Scrolling LED sign: mostly single- or limited-colour text, prices and notices. Full-colour LED: built from RGB modules, plays video, scales by adding modules. Module surfaces include SMD, GOB and COB; GOB adds a protective clear glue layer over SMD.

By location and form

Indoor (P1.25, P2.5, P3.07, P4) for shops, cafés, lobbies and meeting rooms; outdoor (P2.5, P2.9, P3.07, P4, P4 front-service, P5, P8) for façades, totems and billboards. GOB (P1.25, P1.53, P1.86) protects against impact and moisture; fine pitch (P0.9, P1.25) suits very close viewing; flexible (P1.86, P2.5) wraps columns and curves; transparent LED keeps shop windows see-through; mesh LED covers glass façades.

Giant displays, sign displays and wheeled mobile screens

A giant display is a large-format outdoor LED screen on wide surfaces such as building façades and squares, watched from far away. A sign display replaces the classic sign on a business façade; a scrolling sign shows text, while a full-colour sign display also plays logos and video. A wheeled portable mobile screen is one that moves from place to place at events, showrooms and shoots. For a classification by pixel pitch, see our P1, P2, P3 and P4 series guide.

Vertical and interactive: poster, totem, menu board, kiosk

Poster LED and totems are vertical, freestanding or side-by-side units. A menu board shows menus and announcements in cafés and restaurants. A kiosk adds touch or QR interaction; the touch surface is usually a panel, with LED as a side surface or backdrop.

LED or LCD?

LCD can suit a small fixed-size screen. For a large, bezel-free, bright surface or outdoor readability, full-colour LED is preferred. For menu boards and freestanding screens we offer both; LCD is priced on quote.

What is a GOB LED display?

GOB (Glue on Board) adds a protective clear layer over the LED module surface for extra impact and moisture protection.
