LED PROCESSING An overview of some of the leading forces in the world of tour-ready LED video processing.
Exclusive to the SX40 is High Dynamic Range (HDR), which is enabled by Brompton’s ground-breaking new Dynamic Calibration technology and offers a new approach to delivering impressive image quality improvements on LED screens. Per pixel, HDR offers greater brightness and colour ranges with a higher bit depth, delivering more detail within the shadows and highlights and more headroom for exceptionally bright content. An HDR image appears perceptibly sharper and more detailed with greater ‘depth’, providing vivid, lifelike images when compared to Standard Dynamic Range (SDR). HDR is resolution-agnostic and can improve image quality in good quality panels no matter what the resolution or the size of the screen. Used in combination with the Tessera XD Data Distribution Unit, which is a sophisticated single box solution designed to manage the complications of mass cabling that can arise with large LED display systems, the SX40 provides a cost-effective yet powerful system that will support the biggest and boldest LED projects. www.bromptontech.com
