Planar Expands Creative LED Solutions

Planar announced this week the launch of two new LED display families — the Planar® Chameleon™ Series and Planar® Mosaic™ Series — aimed at expanding creative possibilities beyond conventional rectangular video walls. According to the announcement published by DailyDOOH on September 1, 2026, both product lines are available in 1.2, 1.5, 1.9, 2.6, and 3.9mm pixel pitches and target indoor architectural and experiential environments. The two series are available now through Planar's global authorized reseller network, with the company positioning the releases as a response to demand for non-traditional display shapes and dual-sided viewing experiences.

Overview

Planar unveiled the two series as part of a shift in how LED displays are being integrated into architectural design — moving away from standard 16:9 video walls toward installations that follow building contours, incorporate negative space, or serve audiences from multiple directions. The Chameleon Series centers on ultra-slim, double-sided panels measuring under 2 inches (45mm) deep, while the Mosaic Series provides a modular cabinet system with four size variations for custom-shaped installations. Both families share the same pixel pitch range — 1.2mm through 3.9mm — allowing specifiers to match resolution to viewing distance across a single product ecosystem.

Chameleon Series

The Chameleon Series is built on a 500×500mm cabinet platform and measures less than 45mm in depth. The series covers viewing distances typical of retail, corporate lobby, and museum environments, with high-brightness variants reaching up to 3,000 nits for spaces with significant ambient light such as atriums or window-adjacent installations. Rounded corner options are available for softer geometric transitions, and the cabinet's uniform dimensions allow displays to be scaled by adding modules.

The series supports both hanging and free-standing configurations for single- or double-sided deployments from ceiling suspensions or floor-mounted bases, and the sub-45mm depth minimizes spatial intrusion in retrofit projects where structural depth is constrained.

Mosaic Series

The Mosaic Series offers four cabinet sizes — 500×250mm, 500×500mm, 750×250mm, and 1000×250mm — that function as building blocks for custom geometries. This modularity supports layouts that incorporate negative space, non-rectangular perimeters, and mixed-orientation arrangements while maintaining consistent visual performance regardless of whether cabinets are mounted vertically or horizontally. The series features front serviceability for maintenance access and a power-efficient design. Like Chameleon, Mosaic offers high-brightness models up to 3,000 nits for high-ambient-light conditions.

Robert Detwiler, senior director of product management at Planar, stated that "LED displays are increasingly becoming an integral part how spaces are designed and experienced." He added that the Chameleon and Mosaic series give customers and partners "new creative tools to move beyond conventional display formats and bring distinctive visual concepts to life in virtually any indoor space."

Planar directs specifiers and integrators to www.planar.com/Chameleon and www.planar.com/Mosaic for detailed specifications, configuration tools, and regional contact information. No pricing was disclosed in the announcement. Mosaic's front-serviceable design simplifies maintenance in installations where rear access is limited, a common constraint in finished architectural environments. The announcement does not detail specific mounting hardware, rigging systems, or structural requirements, which would typically be addressed in technical documentation provided to resellers and integrators.
