ROE Visual launches first ICVFX-focused LED Panel

Since the success - and subsequent boom in LED volumes - from the Disney+ series “The Mandalorian”, the ICVFX landscape has transformed, demanding greater requirements from manufacturers. ROE Visual’s new LED display Obsidian now aims to fulfill many of the needs posed by directors, cinematographers, and technicians who work directly with LED displays on set.

Obsidian was imagined with working LED stages in mind, making the application semi-permanent to permanent installations. The panel’s reinforced frame design allows for the removal of LED modules at any time, facilitating the creation of access holes for additional equipment, such as lighting fixtures or props.

The film-centric panel offers a 2.6 mm pixel pitch, non-reflectivity and a patented deep-black masking technology which allows the panel’s surface to reach a high level of darkness. The advanced 2500-nit brightness represents in a contrast of 16000:1, making it suitable for ICVFX work. Other features include flip-chip LED and richer grayscales that enhance the content output and color fidelity.

ROE improved the energy consumption capabilities of the LED panel. According to the manufacturer, Obsidian uses fifty percent less energy than a traditional LED panel at the same brightness (220-watt max/110-watt average). In addition to this energy-saving measure, the indoor panel has an IP63 rating for surface waterproofing to make it adaptable for on-set requirements.

The new cinematic panel has already garnered attention for its design, winning the iF Design Award 2024 for “Break-Through Structure Design” and recently the Red Dot Award: Product Design 2024.
