professional display market, particularly in the Middle East where sustainable displays are top of the agenda.” LED display panel designer and manufacturer SiliconCore Technology is launching its Magnolia 1.5mm pixel pitch LED display. Driven by the company’s Common Cathode technology, the Magnolia is the smallest pixel pitch display on the market, making direct view LED displays possible for the first time for close-proximity applications.

AROUND 12,000 visitors from 30 countries are expected to visit the Dubai World Trade Center for the 2013 edition of InfoComm Middle East & Africa, which once again is co-located with the GITEX show for the IT market. As well as the latest innovations from across the pro-AV marketplace, attendees will be able to take part in the InfoComm MEA Summit. This learning and networking opportunity will offer market insights, technology updates and manufacturer presentations across the five days of the show.
In addition, a number of
products are making their regional debut at the show, with the displays market in particular offering a host of highlights.
DISPLAYS Leyard will show its 4K Ultra- HD LED display, P1.9mm. This lightweight unit boasts a new aluminium-cast shell that offers rapid heat dissipation and ease of install. Display units are fixed by locking devices in place after being put in order horizontally and vertically, thus forming a large screen. Modules are bolt- connected to the framework to ensure quick installation.
56 October 2013 Mitsubishi Electric will be
showcasing two new 55in LCD displays at InfoComm MEA, the L55P1 and L55S1. The L55P1 is designed for high-end tiled applications such as control rooms. Based around a similar ‘Smart 7’ concept to its Seventy Series DLP DisplayWall cubes, the P1 version features Mitsubishi Electric’s digital graduation circuitry which ensures even brightness and contrast across the entire display.
The L55S1 is a more cost-
effective option for less demanding applications such as retail or digital signage. As with the P1 model, screens of up to 5 x 5 can be created with built-in mullion compensation to ensure accurate display geometry is maintained. Both models are also able to accept DVI inputs. Up to four displays can be daisy-chained to create a single, fully digital display. Mitsubishi Electric will also be launching a new DLP cube engine, the RPE74U. Russian integrator and
manufacturer Polymedia will be presenting two new products at this year’s exhibition: Flipbox and Polywall. Flipbox is an interactive display for meeting rooms with a world- first collaborative operating
system. It enables drawing, displaying of data and presenting from flash drives, and holding videoconferences with no additional equipment. Features include an intuitive
interface, fast wake-up (the display starts within five seconds of one touch of the screen), instant set-up and security – after logout Flipbox securely clears its memory. Polywall, a software
package for data visualisation management for control rooms and command centres, meanwhile, allows users to control the visualisation of different data sources on videowalls and other displays in a common manner. Visitors to InfoComm MEA
will be the first in the region to see the next generation of Laser Phosphor Display (LPD) technology from Prysm. The TD2 tile delivers a high level of visual impact and image quality through increased resolution and sharpness, uniformity and brightness. Its new enhanced mode offers 427 x 320 per tile resolution, allowing videowalls to easily scale to 2x and 3x HD. Tanvir Osama, director
sales – Middle East & India for Prysm, explains: “The next generation of LPD is a very exciting addition to the
