Demand growing for EKTA's LED screen solutions in European TV

May 2, 2013 - PRLog -- Advances in LED technology has afforded the European TV industry with new creative possibilities as well as practical benefits and leading manufacturer, EKTA, views this sector as a developing market for its range of ultra high quality LED screens.

TV broadcasting requires the use of digital screens with particular technical characteristics, which makes filming easier, as well as ensuring picture perfect results. In addition, screens must have high resolution and contrast, be thin and lightweight, operate silently, provide absolute reliability 24/7 and not overheat. This is where EKTA’s new state-of-the-art range of LED video screens excel, making them an indispensible part of studio and stage equipment.

Programme content and format are to a great extent determined by the presence of LED screens in the studio, to enable teleconference bridges and graphic overlays, broadcast of stock footage, satellite feeds, for example.

These formats require screen equipment to deliver excellent performance in a number of areas, including the following:

1.   Ease of assembly
TV studios are often relatively small spaces, necessitating screens that are light and compact. The EKTA LED-WALL Indoor series have modules that are less than 9 cm thick, and weighing 32 kg per square metre. This makes them highly maneuverable and allows for quick and easy assembly and disassembly.

2.   Reduced heat generation and silent operation
TV studios are hot environments due to the need for lighting, so equipment needs to perform well in high temperatures and maintain silent operation. A major feature of EKTA’s latest LED screens is extremely low heat generation, which in turn, requires reduced power consumption. The absence of external cooling systems ensures silent operation.

3.   Electrical and fire safety
All EKTA LED screens far exceed the minimum regulations for fire and electrical safety of studio equipment in European countries.

4.   High resolution
To avoid image pixilation and image interference, high resolution is of great importance. EKTA’s professional range of LED products include models with differing real pixel pitch, the minimum being just 1.9 mm. Such high resolution broadens opportunities for video controllers and studio designers, as well as enabling presenters and studio guests to sit close to the screen.

5.   Quality colour rendition and high refresh rate
EKTA’s unique video processor ensures quality colour rendition at low bright values up to 1% from rating value and a high refresh rate (from 1kGz to 32 kGz).

6.   Illumination uniformity of video field
Exclusive to EKTA, its Uniformity2 twin-level brightness calibration system ensures up to 99.5 % illumination uniformity and a visual viewing angle up to 150 degrees.

7.   High reliability
Live broadcasts demand fail-safe equipment. EKTA LED screens are built for optimum reliability in all environments, making them ideal for live television on any scale.
