VPL

LED Technology

To achieve an outstanding luminous output in all the 16 (VPL 305-20) or 64 (VPL 1220-20) Quad LED pixel clusters, the versatile and compact VPL uses a larger 6 x 6 mm imaging area with four Full-Color LED chips per pixel. By using this technology is possible to increase the output in all colors, while avoiding multi-color shadows and scalloping. The size of a SGM Quad pixel cluster is smaller than the visual acuity of a standard human eye, which means that the four LED chips in each cluster can be seen as a single large pixel at the distance of 6 meters. The LEDs expected lifetime is 50,000 hours.

Colors

The VPL uses a revolutionary In-Cluster color mixing technology to enhance the color homogeneity for each pixel. As a result, every color covers the full Quad pixel, achieving a bright and wide imaging area. The VPL is fully color calibrated to ensure consistency and uniformity, while containing the same powerful colors of the SGM's product family. 

Superior direct view experience

Because of its top-end LED design, the VPL creates high visibility media patterns for viewers at large distances, but it also avoids the typical blinding effect of big pixels in close distances. By expanding the imaging area, increasing the pixel brightness and pre-mixing the colors inside the Quad cluster, SGM improves considerably the viewer's experience for direct view applications.

Installation

One single VAC circuit is able to run the fixtures, with no external power supplies needed. The same multi-core cable is able to handle both power and data. This smart media system has been designed as an easy and reliable solution for complex and large installations in tight space areas, adding important energy and cost savings. When connected together, there is no gap between connected fixtures, so they can work as a single LED pixel luminaire.

Color Temperature selection

Via SGM Video Pixel Administrator software, it is possible to set the color temperature preset for the VPL within a 2000K - 10000K range. This is a very powerful feature to create warm or cold ambient lighting, but also to emulate the white color temperature coming from other light sources.

Software

To configure and manage its VP luminaires, SGM offers the Video Pixel Admistrator software with real time monitoring and network capabilities. It is an intuitive, powerful, and state-of-the-art piece of software designed to take advantage of the revolutionary VPL technology via a single Ethernet connection. Just plug and play.

Optional data distribution

IP, IK, and C-5M rating

The VPL is IP66-rated and IK05 protected, ensuring that the unit is kept free from externally induced particles and liquids, such as smoke fluid, dust, dirt, airborne pollution, and humidity. Being UV resistant and featuring C5-M (ISO 12944) corrosion class, it is ideal for outdoor applications, while being practically maintenance-free makes it a sustainable and long-lasting choice for indoor events and installations as well.

Applications and Video capabilities

This video pixel linear product can achieve multiple effects and is perfect for video and lighting displays. The clear lens allows direct view of sharp pixels with an immense brightness. With its compact size, this versatile product can be used in tight space structures or integrated in big pixel-mapping setups.

Mounting options

To mount this fixture, simply attach the VPL to the included profiles and install it on any surface with screws. You can also mount the product on the ceiling, floor, or wall, and use it in practically any installation or stage lighting application.
