\nAs a purpose-built rental and staging LED video wall solution, Planar Mantis Series introduces the industry leader\u2019s most focused LED product for rental and staging use.

Engineered to reduce installation time and simplify deployment, the newest addition to Planar\u2019s LED portfolio strengthens support for an array of rental and staging applications while helping rental providers maximize utilization and return on investment.<\/p>

\n\u201cPlanar Mantis Series reinforces our reputation for delivering industry-leading LED display solutions that maximize visual impact, while facilitating hassle-free installation, teardown and maintenance,\u201d said Sidney Rittenberg, Chief Executive Officer at Planar. \u201cThis line of high-performance LED video walls was developed with a wide range of rental and staging venues and professionals in mind, incorporating customer feedback to introduce a solution that can be installed or dismantled without tools and with minimal training or LED experience.\u201d<\/p>

\nThe LED leader\u2019s continued investment in the rental and staging market is backed by a dedicated team in the US, contributing decades of deep, real-world rental and staging experience to the design of Planar Mantis Series and resulting in a strategically engineered solution for live event and on-camera professionals.<\/p>

\nWith models in 1.5, 1.9 and 2.6 millimeter pixel pitches, the series supports a range of viewing distances and production requirements, with specifications including up to 1,500 nits of brightness, refresh rates up to 7,680Hz, a 4,000:1 contrast ratio and scan rates down to 1:8. The series also features a lightweight magnesium alloy design with rigidity, helping minimize flexing or warping to maintain image alignment and consistent visual performance during operation. This makes Planar Mantis Series ideal for concerts, live events and on-camera environments, including broadcast and virtual production, where dependable camera-ready image quality is essential.<\/p>

\nBalancing reduced weight with structural rigidity, Planar Mantis Series\u2019 lightweight magnesium alloy chassis also enables rapid, single-handed installation and dismantling.
