NewSight Corp of the US developed a new "3D LED Video Wall". The 3D display used LEDs as pixels for the first time in the world. The feature is a 180-inch screen with a width of 3.84m, the "3D LED Video Wall" is one of the world's largest 3D displays.




Unlike Panasonic's behemoth, Newsight's 3D Wall most likely will never make it into a trajillionaire's AV room. However, it’s probably seeing it in Times Square one day, especially given its ability to combine with three other displays to make a 360-inch monster.

NewSight pointed out the new LED display realized 3D representation with the parallax barrier method as the company's LCD 3D displays. Because most of the techniques, such as arraying the slits of parallax barriers at an angle, employed for the new display are the same as used in the LCD displays, it is possible to reuse 3D content made for the LCD displays.

In addition, The LEDs are made in China. Arranged at a pitch of 6mm, they work like the pixels of an LCD panel. NewSight noted the display is best watched from about 5m away, but the optimal distance can be adjusted. The warranty period of the LED is 20,000 hours. It is possible to use LEDs manufactured by other makers. It’s said that the pricing will be determined based on individual order.
