How to choose the size of LED large screen? Understand the core parameters of the selection in 3 minutes

2025-05-21 41

​"Why do some store advertisements attract customers for the same large LED screen, while others seem to be covered with fog?"​​ This is the real confusion of many merchants when purchasing. Size selection is directly related to the display effect and return on investment. This article will deconstruct the selection logic from an engineering perspective.


1. The underlying logic of LED large screen size

The physical size of an LED screen is determined by two key parameters:​Pixel point spacing (P value)​andResolution requirements​. For example, if the P4 screen (point spacing is 4mm) needs to achieve a resolution of 1920×1080, the physical size must reach 7.68m (length)×4.32m (height).​Key points:​ The smaller the P value, the higher the pixel density per unit area, and the clearer the viewing is from close range, but the cost also increases exponentially.

​The golden rule of business scenarios:

  • Store window (visual distance 3-5 meters): P2.5-P3.5, size recommended 2-5㎡
  • Outdoor advertising (visual range > 20 meters): P6-P10, size recommended 20-50㎡
  • Stage background (visual distance 10-15 meters): P4-P6, size suitable for stage depth ratio

Size adaptation schemes for two and three scenarios

​1. Commercial advertising scenarios
Outdoor advertising screens must meet the "daylight visualization" standard and the brightness must reach more than 5000cd/m². Take the common 16:9 ratio as an example:

  • Community supermarket: P6 screen, size 8m×4.5m (36㎡)
  • Transportation hub: P8 screen, size 12m×6.75m (81㎡)

2. Creative interaction scenarios
The transparent screen should consider the display efficiency at 86% transmissivity, and it is recommended to use special-shaped splicing:

  • Window display: arc-shaped P3 screen, size is customized according to window curvature
  • Floor tile interactive screen: P4 modular design, single module 0.5×0.5m

3. Professional engineering scenarios
Stadium fence screens need to consider impact resistance and waterproofing. Recommended:

  • Football field fence: P10 curved screen, total length ≥ 60% of the site circumference
  • Event timing screen: P5 high refresh screen, size calculated based on stand distance

3. Pit avoidance guide: 3 details that 90% of users ignore

  1. ​Brightness Trap​: The brighter the outdoor screen, the better. It needs to be matched with an ambient light sensor to achieve intelligent adjustment of 800-7500cd/m² to avoid light pollution at night.
  2. ​Split seam control​: The box joints must be ≤0.1mm, otherwise the screen will be cracked.
  3. ​Heat dissipation and energy consumption​: The power consumption per square meter should be ≤1.2kW, and the use of gallium nitride drive technology can reduce energy consumption by 18%.

​Comparison of measured data:

Daily power consumption per ㎡28.8 degrees23.6 degrees (-18%)
Brightness uniformity75%92%

4. Exclusive selection formula (suggested collection)

​Optimal sight line = P value (mm) × 2000​
For example, the optimal viewing distance of the P4 screen is 8 meters, and the human eye cannot distinguish a single pixel point at this time. If the installation height is limited, you can use:
​Screen height = maximum sight line/15​
(Applicable to information release scenarios)

Industry cold knowledge:​ 85% of the large LED screens in Ginza business district in Japan adopt a dynamic size strategy - automatically expanding the display area during the day, shrinking to core advertising space at night, and increasing energy saving efficiency by 37%. This intelligent adaptation technology is becoming a new trend in business display.
