Four corners in glasses-free 3D, at TISE 2024

Published

The Provenza Floors booth at TISE 2024 showed rooms, not just samples: four LED towers, one at each corner, each folding a picture round a 90° corner. From the aisle, the rooms seemed to stand inside the towers.

The brief

A flooring brand sells how a floor looks in a room. On a trade show floor, a booth can show boards and samples; it cannot show the room.

Provenza Floors’ booth at TISE 2024 put a tall LED tower at each of its four corners. Each tower turns two LED faces to the aisle, meeting at 90°, and the client’s glasses-free 3D content uses that corner: a living room, a kitchen, a bathroom, a pool and a garden, drawn so that from the aisle they seem to stand inside the tower. We supplied the screens, their back frames, the sound and the playback, and ran them through the show.

Design 01

Two faces, one picture, at 90°

Corner 3D works because the picture is drawn for the corner. Each tower has two LED faces, 1.5 m wide and 4 m tall, meeting at 90°; the content is made to that size and angle, so the fold disappears and the room seems to have depth.

Seen from the corner, the floor of each scene runs back into the tower and the walls rise either side of the fold.

The corner is not a seam in the picture. It is what makes the picture.

For TISE 2024 (The International Surface Event, January 24–26, 2024, Mandalay Bay Convention Center, Las Vegas), PixelPro Productions supplied and ran four glasses-free (naked-eye) 3D corner LED towers on the Provenza Floors booth, one at each corner. Each tower has two LED faces, 1.5 m wide and 4 m tall, meeting at 90°: Gloshine PL 2.6 in 500 mm cabinets, 48 a tower and 192 in all. Steel back frames with counterweights hold the towers up. The other two sides of each tower were closed in wood with a door, so the four towers were also the booth’s four storerooms. We supplied the LED, the back frames, the sound system and Hirender media servers, and ran playback and control on site; the 3D content was the client’s.

Four meters tall, standing on a booth

Each face is 3 cabinets wide and 8 high, Gloshine PL 2.6 in 500 mm cabinets: 24 a face, 48 a tower, 192 cabinets across the four towers.

The towers stand on steel back frames with counterweights. We moved in from January 21, and the first tower was showing content on the evening of January 22, two days before the show opened.

Design 03

Inside each tower, a storeroom

Only two sides of each tower face the aisle. The other two were closed in wood, with a door, so each tower is hollow and can be walked into.

The four towers that carry the booth’s picture were also its four storerooms.

Played and run through the show

The 3D content played from Hirender media servers, and our crew ran playback and control on site for the three show days. The booth’s sound system was ours too.

  • Four storerooms inside the towers, behind wooden walls and doors.
  • LED, back frames, sound and playback from one supplier, run by our crew on site.

Questions exhibitors ask

What is a corner LED screen for glasses-free 3D?

Two LED faces meeting at an angle, usually 90°, playing video drawn for that corner so the picture seems to have depth. At TISE 2024 in Las Vegas, PixelPro Productions built four of them on the Provenza Floors booth: each two faces of 1.5 × 4 m at 90°, Gloshine PL 2.6, playing the client’s 3D rooms.

How many LED cabinets is a 4 m corner tower?

With 500 × 500 mm cabinets, a face 1.5 m wide and 4 m tall is 3 × 8 = 24 cabinets, and a two-faced corner tower is 48. The four towers PixelPro built for the Provenza Floors booth at TISE 2024 used 192 Gloshine PL 2.6 cabinets, 48 m² of LED.

Can a booth’s LED tower also be used for storage?

Yes. A corner tower only needs LED on the two sides facing the aisle. At TISE 2024 PixelPro closed the other two sides of each tower in wood with a door, so the Provenza Floors booth’s four LED towers were also its four storerooms.

How does a tall LED tower stand on a trade show booth?

On a steel back frame with counterweights. At TISE 2024, Mandalay Bay, PixelPro stood four 4 m corner towers of Gloshine PL 2.6 on steel back frames with counterweights, moving in three days before the show and lighting the first tower two days before it opened.
