What Is the Difference Between Transparent LED Screen and Photoelectric Glass LED?

What is transparent LED screen?

As the name suggests, the transparent LED screen makes the LED display screen transparent like glass. The realization principle of the transparent screen is a micro-innovation of the light bar screen. The goal is to improve the lamp bead manufacturing technology, lamp bead packaging, and control system to reduce the obstruction of the view of structural parts and maximize the perspective effect. In addition, there is a new and unique display effect. When the audience stands at an ideal distance and looks at it, the picture seems to be floating on the glass curtain. Transparent LED screen have expanded the application layout of LED displays to the two markets of architectural glass curtain walls and commercial retail windows, becoming a new direction for the development of new media.

Transparent LED screen is a new ultra-transparent LED display technology with a transmittance of 70% to 95%. The panel thickness is only 3.5mm. The LED unit panel can be installed tightly on the glass from behind. It can also be diversified and customized according to the on-site use environment to achieve diversified special-shaped displays.

What is photoelectric glass LED?

Photoelectric glass LED is a multi-expandable high-tech product that uses LED chips built in between double layers of glass, using glass conductive coating technology and a control system to present photoelectric display effects. Simply put, photoelectric glass LED is the perfect combination of building materials and lighting. Photoelectric glass LED can not only achieve the mechanical strength and high transparency of building curtain walls, but also realize the function of LED media playback.

  1. Energy saving and environmental protection. It has the mechanical strength, high permeability, heat insulation, explosion-proof, UV protection, etc. of architectural laminated glass. And there is no waste water, waste gas, or waste emissions during the production process.
  2. Media communication. The media attributes of LED photoelectric glass products can help owners and merchants promote their brands, display celebration activities, enhance cultural media attributes, and enhance audience interaction and participation.
  3. Landscape unity. Creative videos can be designed according to the architectural style to form an overall style between the building itself and the surrounding landscape, expressing the artistry of the building itself and the culture of the overall building complex, thereby achieving the perfect integration of architectural technology and humanities.

The differences between a transparent LED screen and photoelectric glass LED:

  1. Different structures

The transparent LED screen uses SMD chip packaging technology to stick the lamp in the groove of the PCB. The module size can be customized. Its common partners are glass curtain walls, glass windows, etc. After powering on, it can play company promotional videos and pictures.

Photoelectric glass LED is a high-grade customized photoelectric glass that uses transparent conductive technology to fix the light-emitting diode structural layer between two layers of glass. It is a type of bright screen. It can draw different graphics (star shapes, patterns, human body shapes and other fashionable graphics) according to different scenes.

  1. Installation operation

Transparent LED screen can be installed on the glass curtain walls of most buildings and have strong compatibility. Transparent LED displays can be hoisted, mounted and installed in a single strip.

Photoelectric glass LED installation requires pre-designing the building to reserve the screen location, and then the architectural glass is installed on the glass frame. There is no way to install the existing glass curtain wall. Photoelectric glass LED installation is when the architectural glass is constructed on the glass curtain wall It is difficult to install and maintain.

  1. Product weight

The transparent LED screen product is light and clear, the PCB thickness is only 1-4mm, and the screen weight is 12kg/㎡.

Photoelectric glass LED products have luminous glass, and the weight of the glass itself is 20kg/㎡.

  1. Maintenance

Transparent LED screens are easy and fast to maintain, saving manpower, material and financial resources.

Photoelectric glass LED is almost impossible to maintain. It requires dismantling the existing building structure and replacing the entire glass screen, which is costly to maintain.
