Leyard and Planar (a Leyard company) pick up five of the Best of Show Awards, presented at the 2016 National Association of Broadcasters Show (NAB) in Las Vegas by NewBay Media’s Broadcast & Video Group.

NAB is the world’s largest annual conference and expo for professionals who create, manage and distribute entertainment across all platforms, covering an array of advances in advertising, virtual reality, and content creation.

The honors were awarded for the highlight of the Leyard and Planar booth, an enormous 8K Leyard TW Series LED video wall. The video wall measures more than 31 feet wide by 18 feet tall (9.5 meters by 5.5 meters) and is composed of 64 Leyard TWA1.2 LED video wall displays with a 1.2 mm pixel pitch, delivering 7680 x 4320 resolution. At a distance of 9 to12 feet from the video wall, says Leyard, “the pixels are indiscernible.”

The Leyard TW Series is a line of fine pitch LED video walls available in 1.2, 1.8 and 2.5 millimeters pitches. The Leyard TW Series is architected to support the highest pixel density and delivers benefits unique to its "flat panel" design including a 16:9 form factor optimized for the most popular high resolution standards, ease of installation and service, and flatness and uniformity.

NewBay Media’s Best of Show Awards at NAB are evaluated by a panel of engineers and industry experts, and are selected based on innovation, feature set, cost efficiency and performance in serving the industry.
