Leyard Europe will showcase its broadcast-focused LED display solutions at IBC 2026, with Planar DirectLight Pro Series video walls integrated into a live studio production environment on Stand 9.D01. Designed for studio and on-camera applications, the DirectLight Pro Series features a 0.9mm pixel pitch, brightness of up to 1,000 nits, a refresh rate of 3,840Hz, a contrast ratio of 10,000:1 and HDR support, alongside fan-less operation and front service access. The range is manufactured at Leyard Europe’s factory in Prešov, Slovakia.
At IBC, the primary installation will comprise a 12 x 6 cabinet DirectLight Pro display forming the main visual backdrop, alongside a second 4 x 6 cabinet display in portrait configuration and a curved LN Series LED banner wrapping around the studio. The displays will form part of a wider live production demonstration hosted by KST Moschkau, combining Leyard Europe’s visualisation technology with Panasonic’s KAIROS live production platform and PTZ cameras, and Brompton Technology’s LED processing, within an end-to-end SMPTE ST 2110 IP workflow.
Robin van der Heiden, territory head Benelux at Leyard Europe, said: “For broadcast customers, the display is a critical part of the production environment, particularly as studios increasingly rely on LED for backgrounds, visualisation and on-camera applications. At IBC, we want visitors to see what DirectLight Pro can deliver in a real studio environment – from image quality and colour performance through to the practical benefits of a high-performance, front-serviceable solution.”
Visitors to Stand 9.D01 will be able to experience the live production environment throughout IBC 2026, including guest presenters, panels and interviews.
