Expanding Your Reach: Tips and Tricks for Improving Your Outdoor Videos Upgrade Your Outdoor Space with a Custom Poolside LED Screen

Imagine watching the big game from your pool or enjoying a movie by the fire under the stars. With a poolside LED screen, these experiences become not only possible but unforgettable. At Ascend, we specialize in creating larger-than-life LED screens tailored to your luxury home. Whether it’s for your patio, lawn, or pool area, the screen can be as big as you can dream. We’ve designed screens up to 300” – giving you a viewing experience that rivals any indoor setup but with all the charm of the outdoors.

Why Choose a Poolside LED Screen for Your Outdoor Setup?

While projectors have been a popular choice for outdoor entertainment, a poolside LED screen takes things to the next level. Here’s why it’s the superior choice:

Unmatched Brightness and Clarity:

Poolside LED screens are incredibly bright, ensuring a crystal-clear image even in full daylight. Projectors, on the other hand, often struggle in outdoor settings unless it’s completely dark. With LED, you can enjoy vivid colors and sharp contrast, whether it’s a sunny afternoon or an evening by the fire.

Durability for Outdoor Conditions:

Our poolside LED screens are built to withstand the elements. Rain, dust, and fluctuating temperatures are no problem for these weatherproof solutions, making them perfect for your outdoor living space. Projectors, however, often require more protection and maintenance to handle outdoor exposure.

Size Options as Big as You Want:

The beauty of LED technology is the flexibility in size. Unlike projectors, which require careful setup and distance, poolside LED screens can be custom-built to your desired dimensions. Whether you want an intimate 100” screen or a massive 300” wall for poolside viewing, we can make it happen seamlessly.

Multi-Use Versatility:

From watching sports while relaxing in the pool to hosting outdoor movie nights or even streaming music videos during a BBQ, a poolside LED screen offers unparalleled versatility. The display quality remains top-notch from every angle, and you won’t have to worry about shadows or image distortion that you’d get with a projector setup.

Elevate Your Outdoor Experience

When it comes to creating an outdoor space that reflects luxury and sophistication, a poolside LED screen is a must-have. These screens offer a premium viewing experience that projectors simply can’t match, making them perfect for hosting gatherings or enjoying quiet moments at home. At Ascend, we’re ready to create something beautiful for your outdoor living area, giving you a cinematic experience in your own backyard.

Hard Rock Hotel Resort Audio Video System

We recently completed an exciting project for the Hard Rock Hotel at Universal Studios Orlando, where we installed a stunning 3×3 video wall as part of their resort audio video system upgrade. This impressive video wall consists of nine 55″ displays while creating a striking centerpiece in the hotel’s newly renovated lobby.

The entire system is powered and controlled by our custom programmed interfaces. This includes all hardware, including video wall processors, audio and video sources. We used durable cat-5 cables to connect the displays, saving our client from the expense of running new power lines. This design also allowed us to integrate the video wall with the hotel’s existing audio video system, meaning the content displayed on the wall can be seen and heard throughout the hotel.

Customized Control with Ascend Studios’ iPad App

At Ascend Studios, we provide custom-branded iPad apps to control all of our resort audio video systems. For Hard Rock Hotel, we completely updated their existing control system and added new features. Now, they have easy control over the video wall, hotel-wide audio zones, and video sources, all with real-time feedback.

The app also includes integrated help files, improved Wi-Fi signal strength, HD graphics, and seamless access to our 24/7 Help Desk support. With our remote monitoring system, we can troubleshoot issues from anywhere in the world, ensuring that the system runs smoothly for guests.

Resort-Wide Audio Video System Overhaul

In addition to the video wall, our team redesigned the entire resort audio video system, covering the pool area, five ballrooms, and all public areas of the hotel. We replaced outdated equipment from the 1999 installation and installed our preprogrammed DSP processors and Crestron control system. This upgrade provided the hotel with a fully customizable audio system, allowing easy updates and scalability.

The system, controlled via a 10″ touch screen and iPad, includes 96 audio zones, each with EQ, leveling, compression, and individual zone controls. We completed the system switch-over in a single night, minimizing disruption, and had everything up and running before 5 AM.

Key Features of the Resort Audio Video System:

Nine 1920×1080 HD video wall displays with remote power and video connections
Custom themed iPad app for seamless control of audio and video systems
Integration with six cable boxes, a Blu-ray player, and a music video server
Full integration with the hotel’s existing audio system
Additional high-output speakers and subwoofers for enhanced sound
Local video DJ HDMI input for live events at the video wall
96 controllable audio zones with advanced EQ and individual zone settings
Free 24/7 access to Ascend Studios’ Help Desk and remote support

This upgraded resort audio video system ensures that Hard Rock Hotel provides a top-tier guest experience, with cutting-edge audio and video technology throughout their property.
