Featured at the HDMI Licensing Administrator, Inc. (HDMI LA) Booth at #ces2024 the display allows users to build walls of any shape and size, with the featured one measuring over 220 inches diagonally. The tiles that make up the large display are square foot modules, each 300x300 mm in size, and they connect magnetically on a simple grid, eliminating the need for cables.
The display is capable of processing an 8K video signal on a physical 6K screen, demonstrating the ability to upscale and downscale content. The modular design with magnetic connections makes it a user-friendly DIY TV option, enabling users to easily customize the display's shape and size. The tiles communicate with each other, creating an auto mesh and ensuring a seamless connection.
To address concerns about the security of the display tiles, especially in commercial applications, Ventana has incorporated a safety mechanism on the back. This prevents unauthorized removal, and for large arrays, special maintenance tools would be required for tile removal. The individual modules undergo calibration to achieve consistent color reproduction, and the display offers two finish options: a glossy finish called Liquid Black, ideal for deep black levels, and a matte finish that minimizes glare.
The display is positioned as a cinematic technology for home use, incorporating expertise from the film-making industry. While the current pricing for larger screens starts in the low six figures and can go up to a million dollars, Ventana expects the cost to decrease over time with mass production. The display is not limited by a fixed aspect ratio, allowing users to create unique shapes and sizes.
The product is not only intended for home entertainment but also serves as an architectural tool. The square tiles and their thin form factor mimic building materials, making them suitable for various design applications, such as kitchen backsplashes, walls, ceilings, and more. Ventana emphasizes the versatility of the display, suggesting it could eventually be available for purchase at retail stores.
The processing unit for the display is compact, fitting into a single rack unit, capable of handling 35 million pixels in various shapes and sizes. The display is compatible with common sources like computers, Apple TV, Blu-ray, and gaming consoles. Ventana's parent company, Megapixel, is well-known in the professional display industry, and their processing system is even used by other microLED brands like LG and Sony.
While the display showcased at CES 2024 has a native resolution of about 6K, it can handle 4K and 8K content through upscaling and downscaling. Ventana aims to make microLED technology more accessible, offering a middle ground between the challenges of achieving excellent black levels and keeping costs reasonable. The company manufactures its products in California and assembles the tiles in Taiwan, utilizing a combination of processors for optimal performance.
Ventana's microLED display is positioned for both residential and industrial applications, catering to luxury retail brands, automotive, factories, concert touring, and movie-making industries. The display's presence at CES 2024 contributes to raising awareness of LED technology and its potential applications, demonstrating the ease with which these displays can be transported and set up. The display is presented as a solution for those who want 8K but also need a large enough display to appreciate the increased resolution.

A bendable version would be nuts. Imagine the possibility for large scale simulators

Crazy. Growing up with pure analog electronics e.g Cathode Ray Tubes, these are just next gen. Fabulous display.

Dude! As a person whose flown / assembled video walls for shows that is incredible and looks like it could massively reduce the size and weight of a flown screen. If it has a place somewhere on the back for a cable safety or a retaining pin these would be awesome for shows. The whole "they talk to each other and know what panel is where" is absolutely brilliant. Great video!

Megapixel is the company powering giant led walls for virtual productions where they put the actors in front of a giant LED volume. Amazing to see their technology trickle into the advancement of LED panel technology.
-
Both you and the rep did a great job, very fascinating product and you asked useful, relevant questions. Thanks!

The future of TV🎉

What an amazing concept. If those tiles would be available to the greater public for attractive prices, I would buy some and then more... I don't like TV screens, but these I would hang on my wall and have them display beautiful landscapes or whatever when I'm not using it as a movie screen. Awesome!
