Bar LCD · Ultra-Wide Format

Stretched Bar LCD Display

The stretched bar LCD display is the screen for the spaces standard panels waste: above retail shelves, along transport carriage walls, over doorways and in the long thin band of a reception desk. WiViKIOSK's ultra-wide TFT-LCD bar screens use resizing-LCD technology — panels manufactured to the stretched format rather than masked — with LED backlight at 500–700 nits, low power consumption, high brightness uniformity and narrow bezels.

The manufacturer's application list runs from public transport, metro and airports to malls, security and command centres, exhibitions, teaching, meetings, catering and brand stores. Wherever the architecture offers a ribbon rather than a rectangle, this is the display that fits it.

Why Operators Choose It

Features that earn their place

True stretched format

Resizing-LCD construction gives a genuine ultra-wide canvas — timetables, shelf pricing and ticker content laid out natively, not cropped.

500–700 nit LED backlight

Bright enough for lit retail and transport interiors, with high uniformity so long content reads evenly end to end.

Low power, narrow bezel

LED efficiency and slim bezels suit always-on duty in shelf runs and carriage installations where heat and space are limits.

Shelf-edge retail ready

The format matches gondola and shelf dimensions, turning dead space above products into price, offer and brand media.

Transport-proven roles

Listed for metro, public transport and airport use — the environments that defined the bar format.

Part of a full signage line

Pairs with the floor and outdoor signage on this site for venues mixing formats in one content system.

In the Field

The ribbon of screen every venue already owns

Retailers mount bar displays along shelf edges where no 16:9 screen survives: pricing and promotions sit centimetres from the product they describe, and the whole run updates from the content system. Transport operators use the same ribbon for route and timetable information that a square screen would waste half its area displaying.

For brand stores and catering, the bar format carries the menu strip, the queue call and the campaign line in one continuous band. Tell us the run length and mounting situation and we will match the format to the space.

Questions

Frequently asked

How is content made for such a wide screen?

Content is designed at the panel's native ultra-wide resolution — most signage platforms and media players support custom resolutions. Long-format templates (ticker, split zones) are the standard approach.

Can several bars show one continuous image?

Bar runs are typically driven as individual displays with synchronised content from the publishing system. Discuss the exact wall/run layout at quotation so the drive method is specified correctly.

Is it bright enough for a shop window?

500–700 nits suits lit interiors and shelf runs. For direct-sun window or outdoor duty, use the high-brightness outdoor signage line instead.

What sizes are available?

Bar formats vary by project. Send the space dimensions and we will quote the panel format that fits rather than forcing a standard size.
