Impact-resistant face and trim
A protective LED mask keeps air-inflated sports balls off the diodes. Micro-grooves help perceived contrast. Perimeter trim protects edges as part of the mechanical design.
Sports
Indoor LED displays for football programs
Football programs need video in the field house and the gym, not only on a weather-exposed stadium face. XL AV specifies an indoor rugged LED wall for meetings, film, pep, and indoor practice.
Indoor program rooms, not the stadium face
A weather-exposed stadium score tower is a different product family. This specification is for field houses, indoor practice, and gyms used by football programs for film, meetings, and pep rallies.
XL AV specifies LUXVISION PROLUX Rugged for those indoor rooms: impact-resistant, front-serviceable, Canadian-made dvLED.
Year-round use, not only Friday night
Program branding, meeting playback, and pep-rally video are weekday jobs. The wall has to be operable by coaches and campus staff, not only a game-day vendor.
We specify processing, audio, and control with the room, then train the people who will run it.
Lighting
Field houses and gyms are bright. We operate PROLUX Rugged around 2,100 nits so film and graphics stay readable without extra heat.
Sound
Speech for meetings and program audio for pep rallies belong with the wall. We specify or integrate audio when it is in scope.
Control
Coaches should be able to play film without a technician. LUXVISION typically uses NovaStar processing. Staff are trained at commissioning.
How we deliver the project
We start with the room: dimensions, viewing distance, how it is used, structure, power, and whether audio, lighting, and live video are in the project. Then a specification, coordination with the facilities team, installation, commissioning, and operator training. Spare modules stay on site so a failed cabinet is swapped, not left dark.
Typical uses
- Field-house meetings and film
- Pep rallies in the gym
- Indoor practice facility video
- Program branding year-round
PROLUX Rugged
The indoor wall
Quarter-turn metal-to-metal modules
Earlier rugged products could lose magnetic modules on a hard hit. PROLUX Rugged uses a quarter-turn metal-to-metal interlock so modules stay on the wall and still service from the front.
7-year sports-impact warranty
Current PROLUX Rugged warranty context is 7 years, including impact from air-inflated sports balls.
Full front service
Modules, cabling, and feeder access are designed from the front. That is required when a gym display is mounted tight to a wall with no rear aisle.
Fanless thermal design
Gyms collect dust. Fans ingest that dust and then fail. PROLUX Rugged uses the cabinet as a heat sink with Mean Well supplies. There is no cooling fan in the documented architecture.
Under-driven, efficient LEDs
Pixels capable of about 3,900 nits are operated around 2,100 nits. The intent is less heat and less electrical infrastructure than driving the diodes to their maximum.
- Canadian-made PROLUX Rugged indoor dvLED
- Known pitches: P3.3 and P4
- Cabinets: 1280 by 720 mm (~58") and 1600 by 900 mm (~72"), both 16:9
- Common 16:9 walls from about 116" to 347" diagonal by arraying cabinets
- Operating brightness about 2,100 nits (LED capability ~3,900 nits, under-driven)
- Up to 16-bit colour and ~4,200 Hz refresh in the documented generation
- Fanless Mean Well power supplies; no hub-board architecture
- 7-year warranty context including air-inflated ball impact
Questions
Will you specify an outdoor football scoreboard on this page?
No. PROLUX Rugged is indoor. An outdoor stadium face is a different LUXVISION family and a different drawing.
Can the gym wall still run score for basketball season?
Yes. Scoring is a layout. Many football program gyms are multi-sport rooms.
Can it sit tight to the wall?
Yes. Full front service is part of the architecture.
Do you include audio?
When the room needs it, yes.
