The panel brought together industry leaders from HeyLED, NanoLumens, GDC Technology, and Digital Light Sources (DLS) to explore the growing role of LED cinema technology, including acoustic transparency and emerging opportunities for cinema exhibition.

Jamal Haddad, Head of Global Sales at DLS (center), represents CineLEDMAX, our global line-up of DCI-certified Acoustically Transparent cinema LED screens. In the discussion, he elaborated on the latest advancements and benefits of LED screens as a future-proof option for cinema owners to consider:

CineLEDMAX was developed in close partnership with leading LED manufacturer LOPU Tech, the company that pioneered Sound Transparency technology in the direct-view LED industry. As a self-emissive display technology, CineLEDMAX screens support both HDR and SDR content that are compatible with Dolby ATMOS & DTS:X audio platforms. Our patented Sound Transparent design allows audio to seamlessly pass through the LED screen without sacrificing visual performance or sound fidelity.

As a result, CineLEDMAX brings forward the future of cinematic presentation through the artistry of impeccable image quality, true-to-life color accuracy, and immersive sound.
