“We felt that the image quality in existing LED offerings could be improved dramatically.

Additionally, LED walls eliminate the concern of disrupting the projector’s light path to the screen wall, freeing up your seating arrangements. The XDR delivers complete image uniformity, including Brightness, Focus, and Convergence as compared to traditional projector and screen applications.
