8K Video Walls for Enhancing Digital Advertising

8K Video Walls

As we have just embarked on the latest level of 4k resolution, 8k video wall for enhancing digital advertising, in particular, is certainly for the future. As futuristic as it may be in the world of retail and digital advertising of a product or service, it is relevant to delicate medical procedures and surgical operations. This magnified view and the clarity of the content enables surgeons and medical professionals to carry out keyhole practices, which benefit the patient.

High resolution of 8K video walls

The 8k resolution is so highly magnified and detailed that it could be possible to see a dropped stitch on a spectators jump at a sporting venue! Digital signage would actually benefit from this new 8k technology, in places like sports bars, where detail is appreciated by the fans; was the ball in or out? The colours are brighter and clarity clearer as each frame is detailed as a 33 mega pixel photograph.

Although an 85 inch display screen for digital signage advertising is a prototype and in its infancy, it will be some time before it is commercially available. This high definition technology may just be a step too far for everyday uses, but it may just find a niche place in other industries where precision and lucidity are paramount to the end result.

8K electronic advertising in the future

Electronic advertising has evolved a world away from the traditional methods of previous advertising; calk board and paper posters. Imagine a promotional pasta meal advertised in 8k resolution – you could see each groove of the pasta, every ground speck of black pepper and as the parmigiano reggiano falls to the plate, in huge snow flakes, from the grater; it’s enough to make your mouth water. But how much detail does one need – may be it is too much. Would it hinder an ad. campaign? Possibly so, as any flaws will show up; scratches, smudges, impurities etc. and also at the other end of technology, what sorts of cameras will be able to take perfect pictures?

Alternatives to a single display screen

A tiled video wall will exhibit a large area for advertising a product or service, as well as being suitable for entertainment purposes. Imagine a tiled video wall using 8K technology for a baseball game; it would be as if life-sized players were in the sports bar with you!

Technology for the future

Where will it end? Right now we are thinking about using 8k video walls for enhanced digital signage, which is almost inconceivable, so what next? Although we won’t see 8k working in our homes; it’s just too clear, we should see soon it in leisure industries and medical facilities, to name but a few. Using current technology, like the upcoming 4K resolution screens is enough for now.
