LINCOLNSHIRE, Ill., June 23, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- LG Electronics USA has been awarded with four InfoComm 2015 awards for its Narrow Bezel Video Wall displays. LG's 55LV77A and the newly unveiled VH7B were recognized by leading trade publications, Sound & Video Contractor, Digital Signage Magazine, Systems Contractor News and Rental & Staging Systems.

"InfoComm represents an opportunity to showcase LG's commercial display products in a highly competitive landscape and in front of a discerning crowd of audiovisual professionals and reporters," said Clark Brown, digital signage vice president for LG Electronics USA. "To be awarded these honors in this environment exemplifies how LG Electronics continues to deliver on its promise to provide innovations for a better business, with industry leading products, including our brand new VH7B video wall display, which we announced last week at the show."

NewBay Media's Sound & Video Contractor and Digital Signage Magazine both selected LG's all-new Full HD Direct Backlit LED Video Wall Display (Model VH7B) as a Best of Show winner. The annual awards are decided by a panel of professional industry pundits and editors who review nominations and judge product on-site at InfoComm, awarding the most outstanding product exhibited. With the world's slimmest bezel to bezel design – less than 2 millimeters – the VH7B is a dazzling show stopper. The VH7B features LG’s own “webOS for Signage” smart platform, which takes advantage of the built-in high-performance System-on-Chip (SoC) that eliminates the need for an external media player, helping to reduce the total cost of ownership, in addition to providing synchronization for multi-screen video walls. LG’s webOS for Signage enables a variety of web-based applications across multiple platforms, as well as the ability to write applications using HTML 5. The 55-inch (54.6-inches measured diagonally) VH7B will be available this fall and boasts a dynamic power savings to reduce power consumption and optimize picture settings.

LG was awarded a Systems Contractor News InfoComm Installation Product Award, which identified the 55LV77A as the "Most Innovative Video Display," an accolade that was evaluated by a panel of judges and then finalized by a popular vote.

Rental & Staging Systems also designated LG's 55LV77A as the "Best LED or LED/LCD Product," beating out contenders in the staging market space. The publication's awards were announced at InfoComm, the preeminent trade show for audiovisual professionals, held at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida, June 17-19, and recognize the most innovative commercial AV products introduced within the past year.

LG's unprecedentedly thin bezel-to-bezel measurements, allow displays to be connected seamlessly with others and deliver stunning image quality. Both the LV77A and its successor, the VH7B, are equipped with In Plane Switching (IPS) to ensure accurate color saturation and contrast, even at wide viewing angles, resulting in unparalleled picture quality that can be installed at any angle or height.
