100 LED Display Applications for Product Designers | Display Products (1) #61–75

Display Products: 15 LED Display Applications (#61-75)

Most of the 15 display products in #61–75, from crossing signals to transit and showtime boards, use LED dot matrix displays to show status, digits, text and graphics. Elevator floor numbers may use custom 7-segment or 16-segment displays instead, and each entry lists the display type and color.

FAQ

What LED display does a pedestrian crossing signal use?

A pedestrian crossing signal uses two sets of bi-color LED dot matrix displays: one shows whether the crossing may currently be walked, and the other shows the remaining countdown time. This is an illuminated-graphics (type B) application, and the emitting colors are red, yellow and green.

What kinds of LED displays are used in elevator floor displays?

Elevator displays in this article take two approaches. Some use one rectangular LED dot matrix display to show both the elevator status and the floor, in yellow or green/red. Others use custom 7-segment or 16-segment displays for the floor number, paired with arrow indicators for the up and down direction, in red or orange.

What LED displays do metro, bus and traffic information displays use?

Metro, bus, traffic and movie showtime displays in this group all use LED dot matrix displays to show digits, arrows, text and graphics. The metro transit display uses a bi-color rectangular dot matrix in orange, green and blue, the traffic information display uses custom dot matrix displays in white, yellow and green, and the bus and movie showtime displays use RGB dot matrix displays.

What LED display is inside the Divoom Pixoo-Max pixel-art panel?

The Divoom Pixoo-Max uses one RGB square 32X32 LED dot matrix display to show full-color pixel-art images and arbitrary graphics. It is the only display product in this group listed as showing full-color pixel-art images; the other RGB examples, such as the bus, movie showtime and clock displays, show text, digits and time information.

How do I choose between a dot matrix display and a segment display for an information panel?

Choose a dot matrix when the panel must show changing symbols, arrows or varied text, and choose a segment display when it only needs fixed numerals or letters. In this article, the crossing signal, metro display and Pixoo-Max panel use dot matrix modules (class B, illuminated graphics), while custom 7-segment and 16-segment elevator displays show floor characters (class A).

Why does the same elevator-floor job appear with dot matrix, 7-segment and 16-segment displays?

Because each format trades flexibility against simplicity. A dot matrix can draw any floor symbol and status mark, while a custom 7-segment or 16-segment display fixes the characters in advance, which suits a plain floor number or simple text. This article shows all three approaches for elevator displays, using yellow dot matrix and red custom segment examples.

What do the A, B and C labels mean in each application entry of this series?

They classify the kind of LED display used: A means illuminated characters (such as 7-segment or 16-segment displays), B means illuminated graphics (dot matrix displays), and C means LED indicators (lamps or icon indicators). In this article, the signal, transit and pixel-art entries are class B, while the custom segment elevator displays are class A.
