LED screens

Bright pixel arrays

LED screens are display panels using light-emitting diodes to produce images.

Unlike older LCD screens that require backlighting, LED technology allows each pixel to generate its own light, enabling deeper blacks and more vibrant colors.

LED screens appear everywhere from smartphone displays to massive stadium scoreboards: The concert featured a massive LED screen behind the stage.
