ViewSonic now ships a 136-inch LED wall pitched to avoid permanent installs

ViewSonic now ships a 136-inch LED wall pitched to avoid permanent installs

ViewSonic's LDS136-152, a foldable 136-inch LED wall on wheels, is now shipping. It sets up in minutes. That gives AV and facilities teams a large screen for shared event spaces and European listed buildings, where drilling into walls may be restricted.

  • 01A 136-inch wall that folds into a flight case turns a construction project into a piece of equipment that moves between rooms.
  • 02The design earns its keep when the screen actually travels: between rooms, venues or trade shows. A display that never leaves one lobby gets less out of the wheels.
  • 03For European heritage venues where structural changes may be restricted, an installation-free dvLED wall opens up a format that a bolted-on wall may not allow.
