Fujitsu intros 231-inch display for outdoor advertising

We'll admit, Fujitsu's latest Super Frontech Vision LD is most certainly not cut out for your living room, but regardless of the paltry 512 x 288 pixel resolution, any single screen that measures 231-inches is worthy of our attention. This widescreen behemoth was designed to garner lots of looks from potential customers, and features a LED panel, 5,000 cd/m2 brightness, DVI input, and a requirement to stand five-meters away before you can make our what's being displayed. Of course, we'd highly recommend that any interested marketers have one profitable item to sell, as this bad boy will run you around ¥63 million ($529,326) before delivery and installation.

So... that comes out to just over 200 inches wide by 112.5 inches tall... and at 512pixels x 288pixels...

...

That means the pixels are about a square half inch. Geez.

I'll take 2.

$3.59 per pixel. I'll take ten! And given the pixel density I'm guessing a 1080P version would measure +866 inches diagonal and cost $7 Million.

Could that be a simulated image, in the photo ;-)

Only 512x288 pixels?

The cost per pixel is about right. I was trying to figure out if I wanted to make a full color panel array of LEDs and the costs turned out to be more than that just for the LEDs. 1/2" on a side for pixels is about right for some LEDs too.

This isn't HD, meaning it's not relevant to this blog. I really don't think that the picture portrays its typical use either.

Fujitsu is ripping people off at these prices, Daktronics is who anyone wanting outdoor sign age should buy from. Almost every sports team out uses ProStar Daktronics video displays.
