Introduction
With the development of display devices to this day, you may have seen many display devices, including point light sources.
For those who don’t know much about point light sources, they may have questions: Do point light sources belong to Afficheurs LED? The answer is yes. For this reason, please read the article.
1. What is a point light source?
Point light sources, in simple terms, are those lights that look like they are emitted from a very small point. Imagine that you hold a flashlight in your hand and turn it on in the dark. The small bulb is like a point light source, which radiates light all around.
Of course, in real life, there is no light source as small as a real “point,” but when we say that a light source is a point light source, it means that its size is very small relative to the range covered by its light emission, and it can be roughly regarded as a point.
1). Types of point light sources
When it comes to the types of point light sources, you may first think of those old-fashioned incandescent bulbs, which were once the most common lighting tools in our homes. However, with the advancement of technology, LED point light sources have gradually become mainstream. LED point light sources have many advantages:
- Économie d'énergie:
Compared with traditional incandescent bulbs, LEDs can use electricity more efficiently and convert more electricity into light energy instead of heat energy, so they are more energy-saving.
- Longue vie:
LEDs have a particularly long life, and some can even be used for tens of thousands of hours, which is much more durable than traditional bulbs.
- Haut luminosité:
LED point light sources are not only bright but also have good light quality and bright colors and look particularly comfortable.
- Protection environnementale:
LEDs do not contain harmful substances such as mercury, so they are very environmentally friendly.
- Adjustability:
Another advantage of LEDs is that they are easy to control. You can change their brightness and color by adjusting the current or voltage, which is very flexible.
2. What is the relationship between point light sources and LED displays?
In the world of LED displays, point light sources are like those small magic bulbs, which are the basic units that make up the entire large-screen display.
You can imagine that these point light sources are like neatly arranged little stars, shining in the dark at a certain distance and weaving together a series of gorgeous pictures.
Speaking of LED point light source screens, the name may sound a bit professional, but in fact, it is a display screen that uses point light source technology. The dot pitch of this display is relatively large, usually between 30mm and 100mm, and some are even larger.
So, you can also think of it as a “special LED display with super large pitch.” This screen uses LED surface-mount lamp beads as the light source, and there is also a microcomputer chip hidden inside, which can be programmed and controlled at will to create a variety of lighting effects.
When you see multiple LED point light sources arranged together to form a dot matrix screen, it is even more magical.
They can create various patterns, texts, and animations, just like playing magic. Such a screen can not only be used for lighting and brightening decoration but also play videos to meet your various needs.
There are more benefits to LED point light source screens than just that. It is also flexible and can be bent and folded at will to adapt to various shapes and scenes. Moreover, its high permeability allows light to penetrate the screen without causing too much burden on the wall or steel structure. Most importantly, it can be installed in a super large area, making your visual experience more shocking.
In addition, an LED point light source is also a new type of decorative lamp. It can not only serve as a supplement to linear light sources and floodlighting but also emit different colors according to needs.
Through programming control, you can achieve full-color effects such as colorful gradients, jumps, scans, and flowing water, making your decoration more colorful. Moreover, LED point light sources are energy-saving and environmentally friendly, stable and flicker-free, with high spectral purity and stable and reliable performance, which really kills two birds with one stone.
3. What are the differences between an LED point light source screen and an ordinary LED display screen?
