System Overview
This chapter describes the recommended planning stages of a VSM Pro implementation and
includes an example of a completed installation.
Planning Stages
Planning the Layout
VSM Pro is compatible with wide-ranging LED lighting systems from Philips, including direct view,
linear, and surface-washing fixtures.
Video installations typically use flexible and rigid linear direct view systems:
•
Flex systems allow versatile installation
options as they can be used in a wide range
of two-dimensional and three-dimensional
configurations, including portable video
screens and permanent, building-covering
displays.

Flex SL,

Flex SLX, and eW

Flex SLX are not
constrained by fixture size, shape, or, most
importantly, an architectural space. For
example, if creating a video display that
covers the exterior of a 45-story high rise,
flexible strands can be wrapped horizontally
around the structure at each floor interval.
This method creates discrete lines of video
that, when viewed from a distance, create a
massive three-dimensional video façade.
•
Rigid linear systems, including iColor
®
Accent
Powercore, can create seamless lines of video
on a variety of architectural surfaces.
Linear systems offer the added advantage of
variable display resolution and most types do
not require external power supplies.
