Signtronix LED Business Signs

These days, it seems everybody’s got a LED sign. LED outdoor lighted signs are seen literally everywhere, even wrapping text around smokestacks on factories. The technology has advanced rapidly, in leaps and bounds, and yet many remain unsure of even the most basic aspects of these modern advertising wonders. We’ll take a look at some of that in this article.

With technology changing so quickly, we’ll have to keep to basic types of LED displays and hope that new developments don’t set all of that on its ear too quickly. Basically, there are four types of LED Signs on the market: Monochrome, Greyscale, Color and Video. Each of them has distinct advantages and cost factors. It’s up to the buyer to decide which of them is most appropriate to the budget and need.

One more thing before we get started. LED is an abbreviation for Light Emitting Diode. This is a very energy-efficient and low-heat type of light which can be easily controlled by computer, making it a very popular and affordable system.

Monochrome was the very first LED technology to be made available to the marketplace. Originally made in red, more recent innovations find that amber is a better color for cutting through fog and smog, better clarity, and can be made brighter. Red LED displays are all but gone from the market. Though nearly exclusively used for text advertising, there are a number of effects available, and the moving print still makes for a compelling sign.

Grayscale LED Signs are not truly a black & white as the name might suggest. The greyscale LED message center displays its images via 256 shades and intensities of amber (or red.) With a greyscale LED sign, one can put animated images on screen as well as customized text. Offering a significantly lower cost and greater reliability than color LED systems, the grayscale LED message center is a popular choice.

Now we come to the color LED displays, and things get a lot more impressive, expensive and complicated. The more cost effective versions display 64,000 colors within the RGB spectrum (colors made by combining red, green and blue). This sort of sign is good for moving animations, creative text, and other similar advertisement.

Another option in color LED displays is the high-density, high-power

16. 7 MILLION color RGB display. This allows you to present full-color video on your building. Highly impressive and extremely eye-catching, this is state of the art, the sort of thing promised by futuristic and visionary films. It has been used to show martial arts classes in progress, images of the actual product on sale, etc, as well as animated graphic advertisements. They’re amongst the most expensive, but also do the most to break down the barrier between the merchant and his customers, allowing the customer to see through the wall and on into what promises the store holds. A great alternative to billboard advertising, such is the wave of the present and future.
