A video wall system is essentially multiple computer monitors that are set up as one contiguous unit, where the screens essentially overlap in order to form one large screen. The typical video wall system consists of LCD / LED / LFD panels.

The screens that are commonly being used these days for videos wall systems are designed specifically to have an ultra small bezel. A bezel is the gap between the actual screens, or the active display area. The ultra small bezel in your video wall system creates the illusion that the user is actually looking at one giant screen. It is a cool effect that can be used to create a monstrosity of a screen using multiple smaller monitors, which in the end will be significantly less expensive than using large monitors.

Reasons for using a video wall instead of a single large screen can include the ability to customize tile layouts, greater screen area per unit cost, and greater pixel density per unit cost, due to the economics of manufacturing single screens which are unusual in shape, size, or resolution.

There are a lot of different groups that currently use video wall systems and they do so for a variety of reasons. One of the top uses of video wall systems is digital advertising, which is becoming increasingly popular for a number of reasons. Using a video wall system, you can create a digital wall display the size of a bill board that you can update as needed with various advertising messages that change depending on who may be viewing them at the current time. This is one of the reasons why this use of the video wall system is so popular. If you own a high traffic area, it is easy to sell advertising space to a variety of merchants because you are seen as cutting edge.

Another popular use for a video wall system is the trade show operator. If you have ever been to a trade show, or conference, then you know precisely how important it is to be able to grab the attention of a potential new client in a matter of seconds. And with so much going on during a trade show, it is important to be able to grab your target audiences attention in a second so that you can present you real message to them one on one. Using a video wall system will allow you do just that. This is probably why they have become so popular over the years. They are an easy way to grab the attention of prospective clients and turn them into actual clients.
