Dahua Technology partners to offer its jointless Led screens to the market

The association of Dahua Technology con Kitt Engineering y Ocean Outdoor has resulted in the completion of five joint projects in AV technology, with the installation of jointless Led screens, as shown in the recent edition of its Partner Day event.

Promote new lines of business, as in the case of Led screens, and expanding partnerships in multiple fields have been some of the central themes that Dahua Technology, global provider of video-focused AIoT solutions and services, showed during the fifth edition of its event Dahua Partner Day (more details in Digital Security), recently held in Ibiza (Spain).

During the event, whose motto has been Think# as One, The company expressed its commitment “to co-create an ecosystem mutually beneficial to sustainable development of AIoT industry”.

In this sense, Dahua presented at the event a success story of application in the field of audiovisual technology, specifically with their jointless Led screens, thus highlighting your new line of business.

About a year and a half ago, Peter de Jong introduced Dahua to Fred Coke, general director of Kitt Engineering. Since then, both companies, along with Ocean Outdoor have made five joint projects and follow-up appointments are already scheduled for the next two projects.

looking back

“Let's see what happens,” was Fred Koks' reaction when he was introduced to Dahua.. Every year we evaluate our portfolio with suppliers. There are so many things that change and new technologies develop incredibly fast that you have to keep up to date.. Among LED screen suppliers there is a constant fight for position in the market. We all know the great suppliers and leaders, but they are not necessarily also at the forefront of technology”.

Erwin van Domselaar, Director of Operations and Projects at Ocean Outdoor, fully trust the experience of Koks and his team when choosing a specific type of Led screen. “Kitt Engineering is our technical supplier,” he assures.. Per distinguish good products from bad ones very well, and in that we fully trust them. When they have a product that they see a future for, “They discuss it with us to see if we can take on a joint project.”.

In the case of Dahua, he first project that was shown during the Partner Day is a Led screen installed in the mall Dill, situado en el municipio de Capelle aan den Ijssel (Netherlands).

“It was a relatively small project,” recalls Erwin van Domselaar.. The screen was not too big, but the initial learning and experience with the system were very good before starting, and the installation itself came out great. Exactly what we expected from this product”.

Soon a second project. This time in the mall Sterrenburg, and Dordrecht, also in the Netherlands. “Not everything went as planned.; not about the screen, but to its coincidence with the renovation of the shopping center - says this manager -. All the walls were well plastered and at that point we asked if a new cable could be laid. Fortunately, All this ended up being solved in a very pleasant cooperation with the project promoter, But it took some time.".

He third and fourth project in the Netherlands “They are true masterpieces”, como subraya Van Domselaar. In the town of Hoofddorp, Kitt Engineering installed a corner screen, “a unique screen for us. It is a screene 40 m2 and integrates perfectly into the environment. We are always looking for something new and surprising, and a screen that rotates around the corner 90º offers many new possibilities. For example, as to 3D content”.

Van Domselaar adds that “Kitt Engineering always tries to provide innovations, so we've already had corner screens. But that was in artistic projects and things like that, where the requirements are much lower. In the process, We tried various techniques and also discovered that the products we had at our disposal at that time were not one hundred percent ready. So, Dahua presented a prototype and we were very satisfied with the 'cold corner', what do we call it. It's really Led on Led, without joints”.

This engineering innovation is the result of a millimeter work, in a length of 10×5 metros, so that the image does not have joints between the Led panels. “The fourth project consisted of placing a screen in the atrium of the mall Zuidplein from Rotterdam -continued-. The screen was placed in a glass elevator, you can't see a cable or anything. Really fantastic”.

He fifth project collaboration between Dahua Technology, Kitt Engineering and Ocean Outdoor is a Led screen installed in the mall Westfield from Netherlands.

Remote monitoring 24/7

In addition to the Led display and driving equipment itself, has also developed a screen control and monitoring system to monitor the primary system at each point.

“We want to see from a distance how our assets are doing in the country -conclusion Erwin van Domselaar-. From the video player to the dysfunctional LEDs, everything can be monitored remotely. For example, the light intensity is prevented from being too high. Something that can have important consequences in outdoor advertising”.
