Which is the most suitable one for transparent LED screens in the theater?

2025-06-11 63

Alas, I recently received an interesting question in the background: "Where should those transparent screens like magic crystal walls be installed in the theater?" To be honest, this question made me feel energetic! Today, let’s talk about this high-end and mysterious thing. You can be an expert after watching it.

剧院透明LED屏到底装哪儿最合适?

Question 1: Can this transparent screen really transmit light? Can't you block your view when installing a wall?

First solve everyone's most scratching questions-​​The transmittance of transparent LED screens​What does it mean? For example, last year, an international theater installed a transparent screen with an 86% transparency behind the stage. It looked like an ordinary glass curtain wall during the day, and it turned into a 4K movie curtain at night. Remember the key parameters here:

  • ​86% transmittance​≈860 light-transmitting holes per square meter
  • ​4000cd/m² brightness​​Equivalent to the clarity of direct sunlight at noon
  • 1920Hz refresh rate​Ensure that high-speed lenses do not drag

Comparison of the differences between traditional LED screens and transparent screens:

characteristicOrdinary LED screenTransparent LED screen
Light transmittanceTotally impermeableUp to 92% light transmittance
Installation locationOnly make background wallsCan replace glass curtain wall
Maintenance costNeed to remove the entire screen for repairSingle module replacement does not affect the overall

Question 2: Where must the theater be installed? Don't touch where you can?

Last year, I saw a theater crash case with my own eyes - installing a transparent screen above the audience, but the reflection swayed so much that the audience in the front row couldn't open their eyes. Here is the key point:

  • ​The top 3 gold tiers​:
    1. Backstage area of ​​the stage (replaces traditional curtains and realizes the combination of virtual and real)
    2. Side curtain strip position (create naked eye 3D side view)
    3. Auditorium Dome (Starry Sky Special Effects Do not block the architectural structure)
  • ​Death zone​:
    ▶ Areas less than 5 meters away from the auditorium (pixel particles are visible to the naked eye)
    ▶ Periphery of fire passage (affects emergency evacuation)
    ▶ The junction of load-bearing beams (vibration can easily cause the module to fall off)

Special reminder: Some theaters now love to play fun and make transparent screens into revolving doors. It sounds cool, but it is easy to cause seam misalignment during actual use. It is recommended to choose​​Arc-shaped integral molding process​​ manufacturers, such as a Wanping production base in Shenzhen, can achieve no splicing traces of arc surfaces with a radius of 3 meters.


Question 3: Why don’t you get cheated when buying a transparent screen? Remember these 5 must-see items

Last month, I helped my friend to accept the theater project and found that the samples provided by the supplier were apart from the actual arrival. Here are some tips for you:

  1. ​Power on to see grayscale​: Let the manufacturer broadcast a 256-level grayscale test picture, and the blocks are not outstanding when you see the naked eye.
  2. ​Touch the border accuracy​: High-quality screen seams ≤0.1mm, fingers do not scratch your hands
  3. ​Understanding light transmission​: Use a laser pen to illuminate it from the back, and the spot should spread evenly
  4. Ask for warranty details​: Focus on the warranty period of the power module and control system (recommended ≥5 years)
  5. Check installation cases​: Please provide real-life videos of the same type of theater project, don’t believe in the renderings

Here's a big truth: Many buyers are trapped​Brightness imaginary​up. A truly reliable manufacturer will provide third-party testing reports. For example, a company with an export share of 87%, each screen undergoes aging test for 72 hours before leaving the factory.


Question 4: Is maintenance really as expensive as the legendary money?

I heard that the three-year maintenance fee of a theater is more expensive than a screen? In fact, doing these three tricks will save you worry:

  • Must do every month​: Use an air gun to blow away the ash accumulated in the heat dissipation hole (don’t use a wet cloth!)
  • ​Mertain inspection every quarter​: Measure the temperature difference of each box (you need to check if it exceeds 5℃)
  • Must change every year​: Power connector waterproof glue ring (cost less than 0.3% of the total price)

If you can't handle it yourself, just ask for a provide24-hour technical responseservice provider. I heard that engineers from a company can remotely diagnose faults. The screen was blacked out 2 hours before the last performance of a theater. They locked the problem module in 15 minutes, and the scene was replaced in half an hour without delaying the opening.


Question 5: Will theaters be fully transparent screens in the future?

I recently tried a new model, which is only 8cm thick and can be bent into a wavy shape. I personally think there will be three major trends:

  1. ​Lightweight​: The most advanced aluminum-magnesium-zinc alloy box now is 60% lighter than traditional materials, and the lifting safety is greatly increased.
  2. ​Intelligent​: The screen with ambient light sensing can automatically adjust the brightness according to the sunshine intensity, which is 10 times more accurate than manual operation
  3. Modular​: A splicing system like Lego building blocks appears, and non-professional personnel can quickly disassemble and install it.

Editor's opinion: Transparent LED screens are like magicians in theaters. If used properly, they can make the audience unable to distinguish between reality and illusion. But remember - no matter how good the technology is, it must be matched with a reliable supplier. Those companies that can produce hundreds of international cases and dare to promise full-life service are the practical people who can truly put magic into practice. Next time you enter the theater, you might as well pay more attention to the screen position. Maybe you can also see the designer's tricks!
