Digital signage and display technology professionals now have access to a comprehensive, free resource detailing the current and emerging landscape of professional display technologies. Dave Haynes, founder of Sixteen:Nine, has published a nearly 250-page report titled 'Future Displays' that explores the intricate world of digital display innovations.
The report, developed over several months and based on extensive research including international travel to technology centers like Taiwan, covers a wide range of display technologies. Key areas of focus include microLED, conventional LED, OLED, LCD, visual illusions, media architecture, and sustainable display technologies. Additionally, the report delves into often-overlooked domains such as display infrastructure and interactive technologies.
Haynes, known for providing critical and unbiased analysis in the digital signage sector, aimed to cut through marketing rhetoric and provide genuine technological insights. His goal was to help industry professionals understand emerging technologies and distinguish between genuine innovation and marketing hype.
Sponsored by display manufacturers Media Resources, i5LED, AUO, LG, interactive firm TSI Touch, and mounting infrastructure company Peerless-AV, the report maintains editorial independence. Sponsors were not involved in the content creation, allowing Haynes to provide an unfiltered perspective on technological developments.
The timing of the report is strategic, preceding the Integrated Systems Europe conference, a major professional audiovisual industry event. By releasing the report before the conference, Haynes hopes to provide professionals with a comprehensive understanding of current and upcoming display technologies.
Professionals across various sectors, including retail, workplace communications, and public advertising, will find the report valuable. The comprehensive nature of the document, featuring over 70 stories and numerous feature-length articles, offers a deep dive into the evolving world of display technologies.
The report is available as a free PDF download and an online page-flip e-magazine, requiring only a simple registration form. This accessibility ensures that industry professionals can easily access critical insights into the future of display technologies.
