A gigantic 90-degree curved LED digital signage installation, set above a retail space in Chengdu, China, is showing a 3D-effect video that appears to show a Star Trek-like spaceship emerging from the screen to the space in front of it.
Best viewed from an angle, the glasses-free ‘3D’ video wall has been a top-five trending topic on Sina Weibo, a Chinese social media network that is similar to Twitter, during a Chinese national holiday.
The curved, L-shaped PH8mm LED video wall in the Sino-Ocean Taikoo Li shopping district is more than 900 sqm in size and made with LianTronic FS8 Outdoor Fixed LED. The screen is 63.68m in length (there is a 47.2m north-facing screen, plus a 2.048m curved corner, and a 14.432m east-facing screen) and 14.336m in height.
