Barco LiveDots introduces the V14m, a 14 mm pixel pitch transparent LED display - with 4300 nits brightness and a contrast of 6000:1.
Designed for the rental and staging market, the V14m is a lightweight LED display that is easy to set up thanks to its special magnetic V-lock. It offers rental companies the flexibility to use the V14m both indoors and outdoors and its low weight allows them to build large dynamic video backdrops on stage, as well as side screens on lightweight trusses. The V14m is available now for commercial distribution.
“We are proud to expand our V series LED display with a sixth member,” says Carl Rijsbrack, CMO of Barco LiveDots. “With the V14m, rental companies can create large backdrops for both indoor and outdoor stages, whether straight or curved. What’s more, it’s also ideally suited for overhead and ceiling screens.”
One of the most striking features of the V14m is its magnetic V-lockTM, which significantly reduces setup times and enables a single technician to safely install an 800x800 tile on his own. A lightweight and slim LED display, the V14m can be boxed and shipped easily and takes up only as much space as strictly necessary. The V14m shares its mechanics with the C series, so that rental companies that already own the Barco C series mechanics can reuse them for the V14m.
Thanks to its rental typhoon test certificate - in addition to its full IP65 rating for the front and back - it is completely waterproof. This testing program, developed in-house, not only evaluates the effect of water and dust (the basis for the IP rating) on the LED display, it also takes the impact of UV rays, varying temperatures and vibrations into account. This test guarantees a truly reliable display that meets the demands of outdoor use for rental applications and withstands the most severe weather conditions.
