Whether you’re an integrator, a designer or simply a label-defying creative, the EXPERIENCE is everything. Host Bryan Meszaros explores the story behind the exhibit to understand how a carefully crafted experience traps into the human experience to connect people to place.

Facebook’s reputation has had a significant impact on consumers’ confidence in the platform’s data security and more, but it’s also made its presence felt in other, more unexpected places.

In particular, as Facebook continues to work on VR capabilities, how are consumers reacting? Experience By Design host Bryan Meszaros weighed in.

“I think it’s interesting to see where Facebook is going with their VR development. Certainly, they’ve been going through a lot of acquisitions over the past couple of years, and I think the recent announcement of the reverse passthrough VR tech is quite interesting to watch.

I don’t think people are going to be deterred because it has a Facebook label to it, specifically just because they’ve been buying a lot of applications that kind of position Facebook to be the leader in online experiences.

I don’t see them venturing too much into the mixed reality realm. I think that’s an area that they don’t understand. And the acquisitions that have been seen to be skewed more toward game platforms and social don’t see translating that well into a real physical environment. But I think, for online, they certainly set themselves up to be poised for a lot of growth over the next couple of years.”

Big buyers take over 18 months to approve a display vendor, IndexBox finds

Big buyers take over 18 months to approve a display vendor, IndexBox finds

IndexBox's updated report, published November 13, forecasts about 6.5% yearly growth for commercial displays through 2035. The bigger planning number is 18 months. That is how long major corporate and public-sector buyers routinely take to approve a vendor, locking in screens, firmware and software for multi-year refreshes.

  • 01The display vendor shortlist an enterprise writes this year decides whose screens, firmware and software it runs through a multi-year refresh, because major buyers routinely spend more than 18 months qualifying a supplier.
  • 02Firmware security, content-software API stability and component traceability now count as supply-resilience tests for commercial displays, which puts IT teams beside facilities in the buying decision.
  • 03IndexBox sees pricing power shifting to integrators and software platforms, with steady growth rates of around 6.3% to 6.5% forecasted by independent reports through 2035.

Why Led4Live bought a Coda Audio ViForce system

Why Led4Live bought a Coda Audio ViForce system

Led4Live, a firm that works concerts, festivals and corporate events, bought a Coda Audio ViForce system from Coda's Polish distributor Tommex. The order included 18 four-way cardioid line array modules and four Sub Force subwoofers. Every speaker in the rig is Coda. The purchase reads as a platform bet, with shared software and amplification weighed alongside cardioid stage control.

  • 01Every speaker in Led4Live's new rig, from 18 line array modules down to two stage monitors, comes from Coda Audio and runs on one Dante-enabled amplifier platform.
  • 02Single-box cardioid designs are pitched on what they’re designed to keep off the stage: less rear radiation, fewer reflections and (in theory) better working conditions for performers.
  • 03The cross-range compatibility argument pays off only when mains, fills and monitors share a maker; a mixed-brand rental inventory gets less of it.

LG's Signage Manager app lets store staff run e-paper signs from a phone

LG's Signage Manager app lets store staff run e-paper signs from a phone

LG Electronics announced LG Signage Manager on Nov. 11, 2026. It is a smartphone app for editing, scheduling and monitoring LG's E-paper Display without a PC. Updates go over Wi-Fi when the phone and the display are on the same network, which makes it a tool for on-site staff. The schedules staff set also drive the display's power management, so how often content changes affects energy use.

  • 01On LG's e-paper display, the content schedule a store manager sets in the app is also the instruction the display uses to manage its power.
  • 02LG Signage Manager runs updates and status checks when the phone and display share a network, which makes it a fit for staff on the shop floor and a weaker fit for chains that push content from head office.
  • 03Before a pilot, check two things: whether the app is available in your region, and what the battery readout shows at the update frequency your menus and prices actually need.
