17.6 pounds total? If it is 15 inches thick, then it is about 37 cubic feet, which means the density is less than 8 oz per cubic foot.

Since there are multiple panels that have to be held to each other, I think this most unlikely. I think it more likely that it weighs 176 pounds.

[citation][nom]thejerk[/nom]you know, since you mentioned it's not HD... you might want to provide the resolution, which was 1088X640.[/citation]


Where did you find the resolution? This thing can't be 16X9. I was figuring if it was 16X9, that the resolution would be roughly 1211 X 681.

At 1088X640, that puts it at 10/17 aspect ratio.

My 133" screen setup with a 1080p Panny projector that I bought 3 years ago could be bought for a total of probably $1500 right now used. Im guessing that thing sells for $50,000-$100,000

"15.1 inches think."?

So who wants this thing? Sure its big, but it should have higher res, at least 1080p.

Get a $400~700 projector.

The numbers quoted are for each module. Each being 128x128 pixels. They are 15.1 inches square per module. A module weighs 17.6 pounds. The screen assembled is 99mm thick.

This thing is modular for a reason, so it can be custom fit to specific customer needs. The 100 diagonal inch model is for demonstration purposes or as a general use display. These are targeting dynamic signage such as seen in sporting events or other high traffic areas like airports.

What's the point other than being able to say "we built the first 100 inch OLED"? Even if I had the money I would rather have that 55"; 0.33" thin Samsung LED for "just" $5,000. Its the same thickness as the screen on my MacBook Pro!!
