displayLED supplies circular LED screen for BBC's National Lottery show

Paul Milligan, 01 February 2010

displayLED has installed its digiLED Flex LED display to the set of BBC1's National Lottery show, shown every Wednesday, Friday and Saturday night.

The digiLED FLEX circular screen runs messaging, branding and lighting and is positioned directly above the presenter hosting the draw shows. The Flex display, measuring 320mm high and 2,500mm wide, is made up of 40 Flex tiles which are mounted onto a metal ring.

The metal ring also holds 32 Chromostrip LED light tubes, acting as down-lighters. An internal aluminium face takes on the colours from the Flex and light tubes.

Each lottery draw broadcast from the studio has its own colour theme. The digiLED Flex display and Chromostrip tubes below it, along with the studio lighting, reflect each individual game's colour - red for Lotto, purple for Thunderball, green for Dream Number and blue and yellow for EuroMillions.

The Flex screen content is managed via a digiPRO and digiLED Navigator with a hot swap secondary system running in parallel at all times. The Gallery sends 1 to 1 pixel mapped content via SDI to the digiPRO which then handles the broadcast quality conversion from SDI to DVI.
