ENGINEERING THE VIEWING EXPERIENCE
Daktronics LED Displays, Specified for the Way People See
Plan pixel pitch, brightness, controls and service access as one system—from the first sightline study through commissioning and lifecycle support.
PUBLISHED INDOOR LED REFERENCE
Compare Viewing Geometry Before Selecting a Line Spacing
The values below summarize Daktronics' published indoor LED display specifications. Final values vary by product family, configuration and test condition; confirm the project submittal before procurement.
| Selection factor | 4 mm reference | 6–20 mm reference |
|---|---|---|
| Pixel configuration | RGB 3-in-1 SMD | RGB 3-in-1 SMD |
| Rule-of-thumb viewing distance | About 12 ft at 3× pitch | About 18–60 ft at 3× pitch |
| Published horizontal viewing angle | 170° | 170° |
| Published vertical viewing angle | 170° (+85°/−85°) | 140° (+60°/−80°) |
| Published half-brightness lifetime | 100,000 hours | 100,000 hours |

VERIFICATION TRACK
Documentation That Travels with the Project
Compliance is model- and market-specific. The review path should identify the exact safety listing, electromagnetic requirements, structural submittals and acceptance criteria applicable to the installed configuration.
Product Safety
Confirm listing and installation conditions by model.
EMC Review
Coordinate emissions and immunity requirements by region.
Structural Package
Align cabinet loads, mounting and site engineering.
Acceptance Record
Document calibration, signal and operational checks.

Engineer the System Around Real Sightlines
Pixel pitch follows distance
Smaller pitch supports closer viewing; larger pitch can be appropriate when the audience is farther away.
Brightness follows ambient light
A specification should consider daylight, room lighting and content—not select the highest number by default.
Service access is designed early
Front or rear access, lift zones and spare-module handling affect structure, wall depth and operating cost.
Color is measured at acceptance
Define uniformity and calibration checks before installation so expectations can be tested at handover.
Content is part of validation
Review representative text, motion and camera content at the expected viewing distance before final sign-off.
Bring the Sightline, Environment and Schedule
We will turn those inputs into a reviewable display brief with test points and lifecycle considerations.
