    LED backdrop for Olympic medals G-LEC has supplied a giant LED screen to act as the backdrop for the medal ceremonies at the Winter Olympic Games being held from February 10 to 26 in Torino, Italy.

    The screen measures 10m x 26m and consists of multiple PhantomFrames – these are lightweight frames that support clear tubes containing color-changing LED pixels.

    The Torino G-LEC screen is among the largest assembled (see G-LEC’s largest PhantomFrame system ever ).

    The Medals Plaza where the Olympics awards ceremonies take place is located in the historic section of Torino.

    Strategically placed LED luminaires at critical points such as intersections, crosswalks, and pathways help cities enhance visibility and safety. Integrating aesthetic considerations, such as using decorative fixtures and ensuring uniform light distribution, further enriches the urban landscape without compromising functionality.
