Layer presents Canvas as a combined hardware display and curated content platform aimed at museum-grade digital art: a square-format QD/QLED panel with a dense miniLED backlight and 10,000 individually controlled local-dimming zones, tuned for high contrast, low blooming, and a matte, low-reflection front surface so the image holds up from wider viewing angles. The core idea is to treat the screen like a true “canvas” for generative and code-based work rather than a TV that sometimes shows art. https://layer.com/canvas

A big part of the demo is that many pieces aren’t pre-rendered video loops: they run live, with every pixel computed on the GPU in real time, which lets artists expose parameters (amplitude, exponent, speed, palette logic, randomness seeds) for near-infinite variations without repeating the same frame sequence. Viewers can trigger variants wirelessly from a phone or tablet, and some works can ingest ambient data so the art responds to context rather than staying fixed.

On the display side, the 10,000-zone approach behaves like “selective darkness”: backlight zones behind black areas shut down while only the lit regions stay energized, pushing perceived black levels closer to emissive displays while avoiding some long-term burn-in concerns that matter for always-on installation. The unit also integrates light sensors to auto-match room brightness for day/night usage, and that sensor data can be made available to the artwork logic for adaptive behavior in situ.

The system uses a Qualcomm Dragonwing compute platform (highlighted at the Qualcomm booth during CES), chosen for a strong GPU pipeline while staying quiet enough for living spaces and gallery installs. Layer positions the form factor itself as part of the art argument: a square aspect ratio that breaks away from 16:9 “TV framing,” plus minimalist industrial design (CNC aluminum back, clean installation options including wire-hanging so it can float in a space for 360-degree viewing).

The catalog focus is moving, generative digital art with an AI-driven curation mode that rotates pieces through the day and learns viewing preferences without leaning on invasive camera tracking; early experiments included mmWave-style presence sensing, but the approach discussed here favors privacy-safe signals (like Bluetooth presence and crowd-level heuristics) instead. The conversation also ties back to a long history in online digital-art communities and the push to make digital art displays feel native in galleries and homes, with this interview later echoed in the broader display conversation at ISE 2026 Barcelona as generative content meets high-end panel engineering in a single wall unit.

Bang & Olufsen’s Beo Grace is positioned as a true-wireless earbud where industrial design is treated as part of the acoustic platform: pearl-blasted aluminium housing, jewellery-like fit, and a compact case that’s meant to travel without looking like generic plastic. In this video, the focus is on how the physical build (materials, tolerances, seal) supports both comfort and consistent sound delivery. https://www.bang-olufsen.com/en/int/earphones/beograce

On the audio side, Beo Grace uses a 12 mm titanium dynamic driver and tuning that targets a clean, high-resolution presentation while keeping low-end controlled rather than boosted. The demo leans heavily on active noise cancellation performance, describing a “full isolation” effect, plus a transparency mode that’s meant to stay natural instead of sounding like a boosted microphone feed. Dolby Atmos spatial audio is also part of the story, aiming to widen the image and create a more externalised stage.

Interaction design matters here: instead of only relying on tiny buttons, Beo Grace uses touch controls and proximity-based gestures (often referenced as NearTap-style control) for volume and playback, so you can make adjustments without breaking the seal. The earbuds are rated IP67, which is unusually high for premium in-ears, and the aluminium charging case keeps the same material language as the earbuds rather than switching to coated plastic. The segment was filmed at ISE 2026 in Barcelona, so it’s presented in a show-floor context rather than a quiet studio.

A useful technical footnote is that ultra-premium earbuds still live within power and size limits: reports around Beo Grace point to shorter playback time with ANC enabled than mainstream rivals, while focusing on longevity via battery-management design (including partnerships around battery health and cycle life). If you’re comparing it to other B&O in-ears, think of Beo Grace less as a feature checklist and more as a materials + acoustics + ANC package aimed at a very specific listening workflow.

Bang & Olufsen’s booth walkthrough is a compact tour of how the brand thinks about architectural audio: treat speakers, TVs, and control as one connected system, then let integrators extend it into more rooms and more zones without changing the user experience. The focus is on multiroom orchestration, consistent latency/level behavior between zones, and making the “control layer” feel as deliberate as the industrial design. https://www.bang-olufsen.com/

A headline prototype on display is the forthcoming landscape speaker concept, positioned as Bang & Olufsen’s first fully in-house outdoor architectural speaker. The idea is to carry the same platform approach outdoors (gardens, terraces, hospitality courtyards) so an exterior zone behaves like any other room in the ecosystem, rather than a separate, bolt-on audio island. The discussion naturally lands on weather-facing materials, mounting options, and how integrators would specify outdoor coverage patterns alongside indoor listening areas.

A second thread is Bang & Olufsen Atelier, shown as a specification tool for bespoke finishes and one-off styling choices—useful when you’re matching wood, anodised aluminium tones, textiles, or architectural palettes. In practice, it’s about giving architects and installers a way to keep acoustics and aesthetics aligned, especially when a system includes statement pieces like the Beolab 90 in special editions such as Phantom and Mirage, where surface treatment and visual depth are part of the product story.

On the integration side, the booth also highlights BeoLiving Intelligence as the automation bridge between B&O products and wider smart-home ecosystems. The demos lean into real-world programming concepts—scenes, triggers, multiroom grouping logic, and feedback loops—plus newer AI-assisted programming ideas aimed at speeding up configuration and scaling to larger multiroom or commercial deployments. It’s essentially the “glue” layer that makes B&O AV behave predictably inside a broader control stack.

This video was filmed at ISE 2026 in Barcelona, and it’s a useful snapshot of what B&O is prioritising for integrators right now: outdoor architectural expansion via the landscape speaker concept, deep customisation via Atelier, high-end reference hardware like Beolab 90 editions, and system-level control via BeoLiving Intelligence and remotes such as BeoRemote Halo and BeoRemote One. The result is less about a single product and more about how a whole installation is specified, tuned, and controlled as one coherent audio experience.

ChromeOS is being positioned as an enterprise-ready endpoint where AI features and security policy move together, rather than being bolted on later. In this chat, Craig Francis explains how Google is trying to tell a more complete “Gemini + security” story: Chromebook Plus devices can use on-device acceleration (Intel, MediaTek, Qualcomm class platforms) for responsive AI tasks, while heavier requests can still run in the cloud when needed. https://chromeenterprise.google/products/chrome-enterprise-premium/

A big theme is removing adoption friction for organizations that still depend on Windows-era software. The discussion highlights Cameyo by Google as a way to package legacy Windows apps on a Windows cloud server and publish them as a Progressive Web App that launches from the app icon like a native program. The point is that users don’t deal with extra logins or visible virtualization layers; they just open the app, and the session is streamed from the server behind the scenes.

The other blocker is “Microsoft-first” workflows, and the messaging here is that ChromeOS can be a practical front end even when teams stay on Microsoft 365. The idea is single sign-on with Microsoft credentials, web-first Office access, and admin-managed policies that keep identity and data consistent while avoiding the unmanaged-browser problem that shows up when employees mix corporate work with random sites and third-party AI tools. This interview was filmed at ISE 2026 in Barcelona, where enterprise AV and workplace IT themes overlap more than ever.

Chrome Enterprise Premium is framed as the control plane for that browser reality: security visibility, phishing and malware defenses, and data loss prevention rules that can reduce risky copy/paste or uploads of sensitive content into unsanctioned services, including AI tools. Put together, the pitch is less about replacing everything with web apps overnight, and more about making ChromeOS a manageable, policy-driven client that can run web workloads, virtualized legacy apps, and selective on-device AI without breaking enterprise governance.

Vistech shows how commercial LED is moving toward LCD-style “big flat panel” workflows by packaging microLED as MiP (micro LED in package) alongside classic SMD and COB options, then scaling it into fine-pitch, high-brightness tiles for meeting rooms and signage. The demo starts with MiP 0.6 on a 50-inch 1080p format and steps up to MiP 0.9 as a modular building block aimed at replacing large-format LCD in enterprise environments. https://www.vistechdisplay.com/

A key idea is pixel-pitch as the enabler for close-viewing use cases: MiP 0.6/0.9 targets short viewing distances with less than 1,000-nit output, while keeping a familiar 16:9 feel through pre-defined panel sizes and multi-panel splicing. The 4K wall shown is built as a 3×3 array of panels (roughly a square meter class) and is presented as a “giant display” alternative where bezels, burn-in concerns, and limited mounting flexibility can be pain points on LCD.

The booth walkthrough (filmed at ISE 2026 in Barcelona) also pivots into production and immersive use cases: an indoor 1.5-pitch microLED wall positioned for XR volumes, including curved configurations where mechanical alignment, scan/refresh behavior, and camera interaction become part of the spec. Vistech frames this as the same modular ecosystem serving conference rooms, classrooms, and content stages, just tuned by pitch, cabinet mechanics, and calibration targets.

On the specialty side, there’s a home-cinema angle with 0.8/1.2 pitch options and a 3D viewing mode using active glasses, plus a “decor-friendly” LED concept where the powered-off surface is styled like a wooden finish rather than a black slab. These details are less about raw luminance and more about integration: living spaces, design studios, or hospitality where the off-state and physical texture matter almost as much as the on-state image.

The lineup ends with retail and outdoor: a transparent LED screen around 3.91 mm pitch and roughly 3,000-nit class brightness for storefront glass, plus MiP-based outdoor cabinets designed for staging and public display with integrated PSU/receiving hardware for faster service. Overall it’s a coherent “from fine-pitch boardroom to see-through retail to XR wall” story, driven by packaging choices (SMD/COB/MiP), cabinet engineering, and control stack integration.

Quectel shows a “smart single-board computer” concept that keeps the Raspberry Pi mechanical footprint and 40-pin GPIO header, but replaces the usual discrete SoC + SD-card approach with a shielded smart module aimed at commercial IoT. You prototype with Pi-style I/O, then ship with fixed SKUs, known memory/storage, and cellular options that look more like an embedded product than a hobby board. https://www.quectel.com/product/lte-sc200u-smart-module-series/

On the LTE side, the SC200U smart module integrates Qualcomm’s SM6115 (Kryo CPU with Arm Cortex-A73/A53 cores) and an LTE Cat 4 modem in one module, with DDR and eMMC already inside the shield. That eliminates microSD as a reliability bottleneck and collapses power management, RF, and high-speed layout into a pre-qualified block, while still letting you run Linux (kernel 5.15 class) or Android on a familiar carrier board.

The next rung is Quectel’s SG560D family built around Qualcomm QCM6490/QCS6490-class silicon, where the carrier stays similar but the compute and connectivity step up to 5G Sub-6 (on cellular variants) and a stronger multimedia pipeline. In the demo, on-device AI acceleration is framed around roughly 12 TOPS for vision tasks like face landmarking, and the module layout even leaves a thermal opening so a heatsink or fan can couple directly to the hot spot for sustained load.

A key theme is modularity: the same smart module can be “plopped” into bigger boards for richer I/O, or into smaller designs when BOM, certification, and footprint start to dominate. The interviewer also gets a glimpse of why this matters—each module bundles DDR, storage, PMICs, RF front end, transceiver paths, and lots of passives, easily north of 200 parts you don’t want to re-engineer for every revision. The booth examples span an edge compute box, a retro-gaming handheld with active cooling, and a cashierless checkout vision demo.

Quectel also hints at what comes after: higher-tier smart modules around newer Qualcomm IoT platforms, including QCS8550-based options that pair Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.3 with around 48 TOPS for heavier vision and multimedia, and a newer Dragonwing Q-8750 class that Qualcomm rates at about 77 TOPS for larger on-device AI workloads. Filmed at CES Las Vegas 2026, it’s a useful snapshot of how “Pi-like” developer ergonomics are converging with production-grade module integration for edge compute at scale.

On the projection side, the conversation ranges from compact 6,000-lumen class units up to the QDX family, plus the i600 1DLP lineup (8K/10K/15K lumen classes) and specialty optics aimed at museums and tight installs. Barco calls out an “elbow” ultra-short-throw concept where physics typically costs 20–30% of light, and contrasts that with straight-through UST optics (notably a 0.5 throw) to reduce mirror complexity and keep image quality clean.

For simulation and high-motion content, the F80 is positioned around native 4K with high frame rate behavior, while the “baby 3-chip” UDM sits below QDX in size and weight but still targets serious output (up to the 30K-lumen class). Across the range, Barco emphasizes vertical integration around the light engine—sourcing laser diodes directly and designing the projector around that engine—plus cloud connectivity for integrators who want monitoring and service visibility.

The other half of the video shifts to Barco’s Event Master ecosystem: Encore 3 as the flagship image processor with 8× 4K60 outputs in one chassis, scalable by linking units for larger canvases and multi-screen compositions. The EC30 and EC210 event controllers are shown as tactile show-control surfaces for rapid preset recall and T-bar operation, with firmware updates aligning controller support and training workflows. This was filmed at ISE 2026 in Barcelona, so the demos lean heavily into live events and integration use-cases rather than cinema-only storytelling.

Finally, SwiftAgent appears as a software-based switching layer for hybrid production: multiple 4K60 camera inputs, several 4K program outputs, and IP streaming formats like RTSP, SRT, and NDI in the mix, with audio-follow and automated camera behavior discussed as iterative roadmap features. The underlying theme is repeatable 4K60 signal paths—capture, process, scale, and route—built for operators who need deterministic latency and clean 12-bit 4:4:4 processing across large pixel canvases.

Napster Station 2.0 is a bundled “embodied AI concierge” kiosk concept that tries to make voice + video agents feel like a practical front desk for retail, hospitality, and public venues, not a demo that only works in a quiet lab. The idea is consistent brand behavior across channels: the same agent logic can live on a website, in-app, and in a physical station, with deployment framed as consumption-based “digital labor” rather than a big bespoke integration. https://www.napster.ai/

What makes this build technically interesting is the hardware stack being treated as part of the AI product: a transparent microLED touch display (AUO) paired with a high-end embedded compute module, a 48MP-class camera, and a beamforming microphone array tuned for near-field capture. In the booth conversation you can hear the engineering focus on noisy environments: voice isolation, face/pose tracking, and lip/mouth movement cues to improve diarization and reduce pickup from bystanders, plus tighter tuning of gain staging, echo cancellation, and latency.

On the display side, the station moves from transparent OLED to transparent microLED in a sub-millimeter pitch range (described as about 0.66 mm) to push higher luminance and better see-through characteristics for an “object-behind-the-screen” effect. It’s the kind of panel where optical bonding, cover glass, and PCAP multi-touch matter as much as pixel tech, because reflections, parallax, and touch accuracy define whether it feels like a usable interface or a showroom trick. The transparency also changes interaction design: you can keep eye contact through the screen while still using it as a UI canvas.

The software story is equally “stacked”: Napster positions it as multi-cloud and partner-friendly, with Microsoft Azure AI Foundry mentioned for real-time voice/video agent behavior and the ability to run on different hyperscalers (including Gemini, per the discussion). In this demo, the agent “Kai” isn’t just Q&A; it can branch into multimodal content generation (e.g., creating a short, shareable song with lyrics + audio), then hand off via QR for retrieval and sharing, which hints at a broader workflow engine behind the avatar.

This video was filmed at ISE 2026 in Barcelona, where the station is shown inside the faytech booth context as a prototype moving toward lighthouse customers. The most convincing part is not the avatar animation, but the systems thinking: sensor fusion (camera + mic), low-latency streaming (websocket-style), voice UX for public spaces, and a display architecture that lets the kiosk live in the middle of a room without visually blocking it.

What’s technically interesting is that the “black chip” is a passive marker, not NFC: there’s no battery, and the touch controller plus recognition layer interprets the marker pattern directly on the capacitive sensor, enabling continuous XY tracking plus orientation, which typical NFC taps don’t provide. That makes it usable for tabletop “tokens” in retail, museums, showrooms, and wayfinding, where multiple objects can act like tangible filters, selectors, or menu keys in a shared scene.

On the software side, Eyefactive positions this as an app platform with a CMS workflow: you can build experiences from text, images, video, PDFs, websites, and even 360° or 3D assets using template-style apps (the demo uses an interactive map concept called Hotspots), so non-developers can assemble navigation and storytelling without writing code. For developers, there’s still an API path to integrate object recognition into custom stacks like Unreal Engine, so the tangible inputs can drive real-time 3D content or bespoke kiosk logic in a controlled runtime.

The hardware shown is a high-brightness tabletop display co-developed with faytech: around a 55-inch UHD panel, built for exhibition lighting and heavy public use, with multi-user ergonomics and a robust glass/stand structure you can lean on without worry. Filmed at ISE 2026 in Barcelona, it’s a neat illustration of how “tangible UI” can move beyond gimmick into an operational interface for self-service kiosks, tourism rooms, and public venues.

The bigger idea is that multitouch becomes the baseline, and multi-user plus tangible tracking becomes the differentiation: people can collaborate from different sides, tokens can represent products, guests, languages, or points of interest, and staff can still use the same surface for guided demos when needed. If you’ve been thinking about replacing static signage with an interaction layer that scales from kiosks to wall displays and tables, this is a practical pattern to watch today.

On the imaging side, the unit uses three lenses (wide + zoom views) and an ISP/NPU pipeline designed for intelligent crop, auto-framing, and “smart gallery” layouts that generate individual tiles for each person while keeping a room overview strip visible. The demo mentions up to three 48MP sensors and 4K60 capture capability, even though most mainstream meeting apps still cap uplink at 1080p today, which frames the hardware as future-ready for higher-fidelity workflows in a hybrid setup.

Audio is treated as a first-class signal chain: echo cancellation, noise reduction, and room-tuned playback via built-in speakers, aiming for intelligibility when the space gets noisy. This is the typical AEC/NS/AGC stack you’d expect in a conferencing appliance, but the interesting angle is how much can be moved onto the SoC’s AI engine for adaptive processing tied to visual context (who is speaking, where they sit) and for features like presenter/speaker tracking.

Connectivity includes dual HDMI 2.0 outputs plus HDMI input, with the option to add an extra external camera and support multi-screen layouts; the conversation also explores the idea of multiple bars collaborating across a larger room, which would require tighter device synchronization and a multi-node AV architecture. Filmed at ISE 2026 in Barcelona, the discussion leans into what happens when room devices become edge compute nodes: people counting, behavior analytics, and local policy-driven processing rather than sending everything to cloud.

A practical near-term idea is using on-device super-resolution: receive a 1080p conference stream, then upscale locally to a sharper 4K presentation for the in-room display—separating “transport resolution” from “display resolution” with an AI enhancement stage. They also touch on offline translation (ASR + MT on the NPU) and meeting summaries, noting that larger language-model summarization still tends to live in cloud today, but the direction is clear as edge TOPS budgets keep rising.

BOE walks through its S2-series LCD digital signage concept with a focus on industrial design: an ultra-thin chassis built around a DLE-style modular architecture, aiming for a clean “flush-to-wall” look while keeping serviceability practical for rollouts. The lineup spans typical fleet sizes (32″) up to large-format installs (86″), with 55″ and 65″ positioned as the volume sweet spot for retail, corporate, and public-space deployments. https://www.boe.com/en/Enterprise/DigitalSignageDisplay

On image performance, the key spec band discussed is high-brightness operation in the 700–1200 nit range, paired with strong contrast for mixed lighting and window-facing scenarios. The more interesting engineering lever is local dimming: by segmenting the backlight into zones, you get higher perceived contrast and better power proportionality than a full-backlight “always-on” approach, which matters for 24/7 networks trying to cut energy per candela.

BOE also positions the family as orientation-flexible (landscape or portrait), which sounds simple but affects thermals, panel uniformity targets, mounting patterns, and firmware tuning for brightness limits. There’s a clear product ladder: an entry tier around 4K with ~350 nit class brightness, and a step-up tier around ~500 nit, before you move into the higher-brightness, local-dimming variants where contrast and peak luminance become the main differentiator.

Filmed at ISE 2026 in Barcelona, the takeaway is how “boring” LCD signage becomes a systems problem at scale: power budgets, long-duty reliability, remote content workflows, and the choice between integrated Android media players versus no-OS displays fed by external players or industrial PCs over HDMI. That flexibility is what lets the same panel platform land in everything from menu boards to city-wide screen fleets with centralized CMS control.

Megapixel shows a Ventana Deep Matte microLED tile that targets a “gallery wall” look: low-glare matte behavior, but tuned to keep saturation and highlight punch, including peak white around 1,000 nit while holding very low black level for high contrast HDR content. The demo leans on artwork and skin-tone gradients to show how the finish suppresses specular reflections without turning the image into a flat, hazy panel. https://megapixelvr.com/

Next to it, they contrast a glossy “Liquid Black” style tile, where the surface read is closer to an inky mirror-like black, trading higher reflectivity for a deeper perceived black in controlled light. Both finishes sit in the same Ventana modular tile concept, so the “matte vs gloss” choice becomes a system-level design decision depending on ambient light, viewing distance, and whether you want a framed-canvas vibe or a polished display aesthetic.

All of it is driven by Megapixel HELIOS processing, and the AMD booth context highlights a silicon partnership angle: the processor platform integrates AMD compute, and the discussion frames the pipeline as high-performance video ingest + real-time processing + LED drive mapping. In Megapixel terms, that typically includes calibration, tone mapping, grayscale handling, and tight genlock-style consistency so the wall behaves like a single coherent raster even as it scales.

The physical build is also part of the pitch: a magnetic puck mounting approach lets you align a wall grid and then “pop” tiles in and out for serviceability, which matters when you’re building portrait-format canvases like the 2880 × 3600 demo here. This segment was filmed at ISE 2026 in Barcelona, where the emphasis is less on raw pixel count and more on surface optics, install workflow, and processor-led image integrity.

faytech uses ISE as a fast tour of how its touch hardware portfolio scales from standard signage players to purpose-built kiosks, with most of the real work happening in PCAP tuning, optical bonding, high-brightness stacks, and enclosure engineering for 24/7 duty cycles. The talk keeps coming back to “build speed”: partners bring an application (retail, wayfinding, menu boards), faytech turns it into an integrated touch display + compute + mechanics package, and then pushes toward volume once a demo starts pulling leads. https://faytech.com/

A standout demo is a large interactive touch table running very precise capacitive sensing, where the value isn’t just the panel but the full interaction loop: touch latency, palm rejection, UI triggers, and reliable gesture detection in public spaces. This kind of hardware is boring until it’s not—once you add real-time content selection, kiosk-grade mounting, and a predictable BOM for rollout, it becomes the kind of “quiet infrastructure” that restaurants and venues can actually deploy.

Later in the walkthrough (shot at ISE 2026 in Barcelona), the conversation pivots to glasses-free 3D for digital signage: Looking Glass Hololuminescent Displays (HLD) shown in 16-inch FHD and 27-inch 4K UHD form factors, with an 86-inch concept framing the “entrance display” use case. The point is autostereoscopic multi-view without headsets or eye tracking, packaged as a normal video-driven display pipeline, so you can treat content like signage media but render it as a fixed 3D volume on the edge.

On the kiosk side, you get a nice contrast between transparent OLED and transparent micro-LED approaches. The transparent OLED kiosk format is familiar (LG transparent OLED class hardware), while the AUO 30-inch transparent micro-LED kiosk is framed as a first public showing: optically bonded 10-point PCAP, around 600 cd/m² brightness, over 60% transparency, and high contrast, built into a complete kiosk enclosure in a very short iteration cycle. That’s less about pixel count and more about proving a manufacturable integration path from sample panel to deployable kit.

The tour also drops into “invisible engineering”: a transflective, sunlight-readable LCD concept that is mostly passive, drawing power mainly on image changes, with a small rear solar cell enabling periodic updates outdoors (think minutes, not video). And for rugged environments, they mention EMI/EMC shielding layers bonded into the glass stack plus extreme surge robustness (up to ~30 kV) while keeping touch stability, which is the kind of detail that matters when the display is a subsystem inside a larger vehicle or mission platform, here.

Geniatech walks through three product tracks that sit at the intersection of digital signage playback, edge inference, and ultra-low-power ePaper.

The more interesting twist is where signage hardware becomes an on-prem compute node. They describe an edge AI configuration around a 40 TOPS NPU-class accelerator, aimed at running small vision models locally and even deploying a side-loaded LLM up to roughly 7B parameters, depending on memory and runtime constraints. In practice, that points to applications like audience measurement, dwell-time and behavior analytics, and camera-driven context that can adapt creative, scheduling, or content rules without round-tripping raw video to cloud.

On the ePaper side, Geniatech positions itself as an ODM layer that removes the “hard part” of E Ink driving for existing signage ecosystems. The pitch is plug-and-play compatibility: Linux and Android-based controller stacks, custom TCON/driver know-how, and interface boards that let a conventional signage player keep its CMS unchanged while ePaper gets proper waveform control, ghosting mitigation, and partial update support where only a price/date region refreshes.

The demo leans into large-format color ePaper (including a 28.5-inch class panel) doing live, localized partial refresh that feels closer to print than to LCD motion, while staying power-frugal enough for battery and even solar-backed deployments. This was filmed at ISE 2026 in Barcelona, and it frames Geniatech’s strategy as “one backend, multiple front panels”: HDMI video walls when you need motion, and Spectra-class ePaper when you want sunlight readability, near-zero idle power, and selective refresh at the edge.

A key thread is Google EDLA (Enterprise Device Licensing Agreement): a certification path that lets schools run Google services on-board in a compliant way, instead of relying on screen-mirroring from a laptop. That matters for Google Play access, Workspace workflows, and predictable app deployment, especially when devices are shared across periods and users.

On the hardware side they point to large-format touch displays, including a 110-inch class panel with a stated 120 Hz refresh rate for smoother pen tracking and motion, plus an emphasis on high brightness. They also show an 80% automated production line, underlining repeatability in assembly, calibration, and QA for high-volume education rollouts at ISE 2026 Barcelona.

For “big-room” pedagogy and auditoriums, the booth highlights a 163-inch 4K LED display designed to behave like their interactive boards, so the UI, touch habits, and control model remain consistent across LCD IFPD and direct-view LED. The pitch is reducing the learning curve for teachers and the integration burden for IT, while scaling the same collaboration surface into larger spaces you can actually deploy.

Muxwave walks through its transparent LED portfolio, centered on an ultra-light “hanging” format (Series F) built for large suspended installs. The demo wall is about 4 m high by 7.5 m wide, with top-fed power and signal routing so cabling stays clean while the feed runs down through the structure. The core idea is keeping mass and depth low enough to enable creative shapes and big spans while still behaving like a real LED display rather than a projection surface. https://www.muxwave.com/

A key engineering theme is architectural integration: high transparency for shopfronts and atriums, plus enough luminance and refresh stability for camera-friendly content. Muxwave frames this as “full screen” coverage where the LED is distributed across a mesh/film-like module, making the visual layer feel embedded into the space. For outdoor deployments they highlight IP65 weather protection and an on-board LED packaging approach (described in the booth talk as “blue on board”) aimed at robustness in public environments and façades.

They also show a floor-standing poster concept (P32), essentially a 1 m by 2 m transparent LED unit that can be tiled side-by-side into longer ribbons, like a 5 m by 1 m run. The modules are attached to a glass-fronted format, and the logistics are clearly designed for rental and rapid rollout: each unit ships as one set per dedicated transport case. Content ingest is handled by an LED system controller, with upload and playback managed from a phone or laptop for quick campaign turnover.

Beyond the booth hardware, the conversation points to real deployments: retail windows, building façades, and sculptural installs such as circular or “ball” shapes used for wayfinding or landmark signage. One named reference is a large installation at the south entrance area of Fira Barcelona, which helps anchor the product as something that can survive high foot traffic and real public lighting. This interview was filmed at ISE 2026 in Barcelona, so the focus is on integrator-ready formats rather than lab prototypes.

The most interesting takeaway is how transparent LED is converging into a practical media layer: low kg/m² loading, thin profiles, modular splicing, and simplified top-power architecture that reduces install complexity overhead. Add IP-rated outdoor variants and controller-based content workflows, and you get a system that can scale from a small 20×10 cm advertising demo up to multi-meter architectural spans, while slowly pushing total project cost down year over year.

A nice detail is how Infinity is shown as something that can travel across the supply chain: the demo ties the control stack to partner display hardware like a BOE 1.25 mm COB module, and the discussion hints at how driver IC choices and calibration coefficients shape what people call “image quality” on fine-pitch LED. The takeaway is that a lot of the perceived sharpness and uniformity comes from the interaction between bit-depth mapping, grayscale linearity, and how the driver allocates current at very low luminance.

The booth tour then shifts to “LED intelligent playback control” and monitoring, essentially pushing fixed-install LED toward a managed appliance model: TV-style UI workflows, centralized status visibility for processors, and cloud management via Nova Cloud. On the content side, the media-server story is framed around redundancy (one primary plus two backup paths) and scaling across resolutions, which matters for unattended signage and large canvases where a single failure becomes obvious.

Another segment, filmed at ISE 2026 in Barcelona, focuses on thermal compensation: compensating temperature-driven drift to reduce long-run color cast and keep color temperature stable at a more monitor-like level. In practice this kind of control loop is about sustaining chroma consistency over hours of operation, especially when cabinet thermals vary across a wall due to airflow, power density, or mounting geometry.

Finally, NovaStar highlights its COEX 5G distribution approach versus “1G” Ethernet workflows: roughly 2.9–2.95 million pixels over a single link, which can cut processor count and dramatically reduce cable runs. The side-by-side cabling examples make the point clearly: fewer physical links and fewer failure points, while still fitting into an ecosystem where multiple vendors align around the same next-gen transport and configuration tooling together

Vivalyte walks through a toolkit that sits between LED display hardware and architectural lighting, where “video-driven light” and “pixel-controlled line light” start to blur. The Phantom Mesh concept is a see-through LED mesh aimed at glass, façades, and staging, with the demo focusing on two transparency/definition tradeoffs: around 6.2 mm pitch for a denser image, and around 10 mm pitch for higher optical transparency. It’s designed to scale into large-format surfaces via small mechanical connection pieces and modular sections, so you can build long runs without turning the build into a heavy video-wall project. https://vivalyte.com/solution/phantom-mesh/

A practical detail is how the mesh is driven: it behaves like a conventional video endpoint, so standard LED control ecosystems like NovaStar or Colorlight can feed it, and then your choice of media server or mapping stack (Pixera, MadMapper, etc.) handles content workflows. In the booth, they describe variants with different power-box placement (top vs top+bottom), plus an exhibition-oriented mesh prototype intended to mount into common booth frame systems like Aluvision and beMatrix, targeting faster rigging and cleaner alignment on show builds too.

The other thread is Vivalyte’s “Dynamic Lightbox” idea: combining printed fabric (or other translucent layers) with a low-resolution LED backplane (they mention P20) to add motion, highlights, and day/night effects without the “raw LED screen” look. Instead of replacing print, the LED becomes a controllable light engine behind the graphic, so you keep sharp printed detail while selectively animating regions, gradients, and glow. This segment was filmed at ISE 2026 in Barcelona, and it fits the broader trend of hybrid media surfaces that need to read well at close range and still scale to big areas here.

For ceilings and interiors, the stretch-ceiling demo shows a layered approach: an acoustic layer, then backlight bars, with tunable-white control from about 1800 K to 6500 K over DMX. The “big pixel” approach they mention (large controllable zones) is a reminder that not every surface needs high spatial resolution; for circadian-style ambience, smooth CCT transitions and uniform diffusion matter more than tight pitch here.

Finally, the Neon Flex lineup is positioned as architectural “line media” rather than faux neon: silicone extrusion with internal LEDs, DMX pixel control, and even a fully 3D-bendable variant with about 25 mm pixel pitch for richer chases and effects. They also point to a two-part construction in the 40F series (cover + strip) to hide starts/ends and enable seamless continuous lines, which is exactly the kind of detail that decides whether an install reads as a clean architectural element in the real world, not a segmented strip here.

OnSign positions its platform as a cloud-based digital signage CMS for managing distributed screen networks: upload media, build layouts, schedule playlists, and publish to one or many players with tag- and rule-based targeting. A practical detail is the player-side caching model: content is synchronized and stored locally so playback can continue through temporary connectivity loss, while admins keep control from a web console. https://www.onsign.com/

A big part of the story here is how signage turns into an interactive endpoint when you connect retail and venue hardware. The demo shows Nexmosphere-style triggers such as presence detection, RFID (with antenna), and magnetic or “product-lift” sensing, where removing an item from a shelf can cue a specific creative on the nearest display. This bridges CMS scheduling with real-world events, useful for planograms, end-caps, and guided shopping flows in store.

Captured at ISE 2026 in Barcelona, the walkthrough also highlights how OnSign fits into modern DOOH and retail media patterns: screens in-store for programmatic ad slots, menu boards, corporate comms, public transport info, and in-vehicle or rooftop displays for taxi or transit media. The publishing workflow shown is classic enterprise signage—divide the canvas into zones, assign destinations, and restrict playback by daypart, weekday, location, or metadata tags so the same creative behaves differently by context.

Audience measurement appears as a separate but connected layer: a camera can detect approximate viewer counts, “looking vs not looking,” and coarse demographics like gender and age range, then feed that into proof-of-play and campaign reporting. OnSign mentions integration with Quividi-type analytics so advertisers can correlate ad playback with observed attention, and optionally trigger content based on demographic ranges rather than only time-of-day logic.

The AI angle is less “content magic” and more operational reliability: OnSign’s Mosaic concept takes periodic screenshots (shown as every ~12 minutes) and uses automated checks to flag black screens, popups, or frozen playback. Add in AI-assisted grouping, alert rules like CPU thresholds, and QR-driven interactivity (scan-to-landing-page plus on-screen feedback), and you get a CMS that’s pushing toward closed-loop monitoring and smarter orchestration across fleets of screens.

Pixelhue walks through PixPro A, positioned as an all-in-one AV-over-IP platform that merges a video decoder/encoder pipeline with an LED controller in the same box, so an LED wall can be driven directly without stacking separate processors. The pitch is a single integrated control layer for distributed video, splicing, and LED output, aimed at command/control and large canvas display workflows. https://www.pixelhue.com/

A core theme is doing high image quality over standard 1GbE instead of requiring 10GbE, while still targeting very low end-to-end delay for operator use. In the demo they switch into a KVM mode and call out sub-2 ms latency, which is the key spec when you want “mouse-feels-local” interaction on remote sources. This is paired with a “visualized digital center” style management interface for monitoring, routing, and layout control in a control-room context.

The PD3 transceiver family is shown as the building block: compact encode/decode endpoints with HDMI I/O, a quick device-ID/check button, and the ability to repurpose a unit as encoder or decoder depending on configuration. There are variants labeled PD3 2K and PD3 4K, with models that include multiple HDMI inputs/outputs so you can do input backup and fast switching for redundancy. The video was filmed at ISE 2026 in Barcelona, which fits the AV-control and LED ecosystem angle.

On the canvas side, PixPro A demonstrates multi-window splicing up to 16×6, effectively treating many sources as one composited surface for an LED wall or a large multi-display array. That points to typical use cases like situational awareness, SOC/NOC visualization, and surveillance viewing, where you need flexible layout presets, fast recall, and consistent timing across tiles. The “13 million pixels” comment reinforces that they’re targeting large total pixel budgets and wide canvases.

The competitive framing is against established enterprise AV-over-IP vendors, but with a focus on lowering network and deployment cost by staying on 1GbE while keeping 4K capability and interactive latency low. Technically, it sits at the intersection of IP video distribution, matrix switching, LED processing, and KVM-over-IP, with emphasis on integrated control and failover-friendly HDMI routing. It’s a practical look at how AV-over-IP is being packaged for LED walls and control-room operation here.
