Caulfield Racecourse has installed a massive 319.5 m2 display, with a pixel density of 10,000 dots/m2. The display features Mitsubishi Electric’s Real Black LED technology.

The screen was made using 75 separate cabinets composed of Mitsubishi Electric AVL-ODT10 Diamond Vision LED modules, provides true 10 mm pixel pitch spacing and uses a 3-in-1 surface-mount LED (SMD) featuring Mitsubishi Electric’s Real Black LED technology.

“The use of the Real Black LED technology allows for deep, rich black levels and unsurpassed vertical viewing angles in an outdoor LED display product. The characteristics of Real Black LED technology will ensure that Caulfield racegoers have a clear view of the screen up close and in bright sunlight conditions,” says Tim Mitchell, technical sales engineer, Mitsubishi Electric Australia.

Mitsubishi Electric has significant experience with traditional lamp-based red, green and blue (RGB) LED display products as well as 3-in-1 SMD technology. Based on this experience, the Real Black LED technology was developed and introduced to overcome the shortfalls of traditional technologies.

The technology features black LEDs that provide a continuous black face to the display not previously possible with RGB lamp LED products or traditional SMD products which utilise white-faced LEDs.
