Western Sydney University in Australia recently deployed a curved NanoLumens LED display that wraps around a central wall in its new campus in the Parramatta City Precinct. The university teamed up with Digital Place Solutions to find the right display, according to a press release.
The 25-foot wide by 5-foot high display curves 90 degrees back into an acute angle. It weighs 749 pounds, is 100-mm deep and is powered by two 15-amp circuits. The display is designed with a 4.7-mm pixel pitch and provides information for students on events and news directly behind the main information desk.
"Interestingly, at first the idea for the information area did not include a display because the architect didn't think it was possible to find a true curved display that would work well within the overall design of the space," Stephen Rubie, managing director of Digital Place Solutions, said in the release "When we showed them the performance of the true curved NanoLumens display they knew they had to incorporate it into the design of the space. In fact, the display made the space!"
