Workplace digital signage and display capabilities, like 4K or 8K, pitch, and screen size, are commonly used to promote displays and validate reasons to invest. But those numbers and specifications only indicate a display’s peak functionality. Can you base a digital display purchase on this information? Within context, yes.
Rather than base your investment purely on function, we suggest reviewing your measurements for success. From there, frame your investment within your vision and goals for your display.
Building your digital signage and display vision
To help ensure you select the right digital display, we recommend ensuring your vision accounts for the following:
The digital display environment
Understanding the impact your display has on your environment informs the aesthetic choices you can make with the rest of your space. So, it is important to ask:
- Will my display be the centerpiece of my lobby?
- Is my display immersive, filling the walls with beautiful visuals?
- Will my display serve as the backdrop to an auditorium stage?
- Or is my display the main view screen for my command center?
By knowing how your display will interact with its environment, you can begin looking at digital signage and display spec sheets for display size and resolution. Answering the questions above also informs:
- Room design (signage placement)
- How to light your environment
- Whether to install sound or projection systems
But how will your audience interact with your display in this environment?
The digital display experience
Large format displays are built for different purposes. Understanding what you want the end-user to feel is vital to focusing digital display selection.
If your display is meant to wow your audience, it must immediately capture the attention of your viewers. For this use case, you need a screen with incredible brightness, intensity, and clear visuals.
Or, if your display is meant to entertain or immerse your audience, it requires much of the same, with faithful and accurate colors and dynamic range.
Establishing a clear vision of your environment, the desired user experience, and how your display connects to each will inform which visual specifications and capabilities should make up your solution.
But there is one more key to making a successful digital display investment.
The digital display eye test
Seeing a display in-person can be one of the strongest indicators of a successful investment. It is here that you see:
- How the light from a screen impacts your surroundings
- The nuances of color and visual accuracy, as discussed above
- Whether display features, like 4K or 8K, match what you need
Will a display hold up to your vision and goals? See it yourself to find out.
