Barco supplies Times Square LED tower

The exterior display consists of nearly 1,500 LED panels, almost 15,000 square feet in size, including a 25-storey LED tower.

Barco was brought onto the project by Baltimore-based design company Barnycz Group. To create the display, Barco engineers wrapped the building’s exterior facade with 1,469 Barco TF-20 LED panels, on 12 distinct geometric surfaces, for a total pixel count nearing 3.5 million. The ceiling of the building’s outdoor foyer comprises 1,665 Barco OLite 612 modules. Immediately inside the store is a bank of 21 Barco NSL-46 LCD monitors, arranged in a 7×3 array.

Dual Barco DX-700 LED digitisers are used to process multi-format video.
