Press Release: Jasco introduces the Leyard LED MultiTouch Video Wall

23 June 2017

Jasco Broadcast has announced local availability of Leyard's LED MultiTouch Video Wall, the industry's very first completely seamless touch-enabled LED video wall. It is available in three sizes: 108-inch, 151-inch and 196-inch; and features up to 32 simultaneous touch points. This revolutionary new technology changes the game for professional broadcasters, and opens up numerous other collaborative possibilities across broadcasting, corporate applications and even within educational institutions.

'Thanks to patent-pending Leyard Pliable LED Touch Surface (PLTS) technology, these new video walls are not only smooth, seamless and lightweight, they are also highly durable. With up to 32 simultaneous touch points, multiple users can interact individually at the same time, without their experience being affected by what anybody else is doing. Aside from professional broadcasting studios, where the video walls can be used to enhance live productions such as sportscasting and weather forecasting, these video walls can also be applied in a corporate setting or at events to take customer presentations to the next level. There are also many possibilities for educational institutions to leverage the potential of these screens for interactive collaboration applications,' says Paul Divall MD at Jasco Intelligent Technologies.

One of the most important advancements of the Leyard LED MultiTouch Video Wall is the fact that it is completely seamless across the entire expanse of the screen, which offers enhanced visual performance with uniform color and brightness. The anti-glare surface also eliminates distracting reflections, and the PLTS technology ensures the screen has no parallax effect, meaning that images remain consistent and true across the entire video wall both in direct and off-axis viewing.

'The Leyard LED MultiTouch Interactive Video Wall represents the latest in global broadcasting display innovation, offering a sleek look and unparalleled quality along with a dynamic, interactive multi-user experience. We are proud to be able to bring leading-edge international technology to the southern African market, ensuring local broadcasters and other users can access best of breed solutions to compete on a global scale,' Divall concludes.
