Gail Chiasson, North American Editor

Clear Channel Outdoor Canada, clearchannel2Toronto, has installed two digital displays in that city’s Yonge Dundas Square with the latest in Light Emitting Diode technology.

The new 12’ x 9’ screens are 8 mm resolution, making them the sharpest of all the signs at the popular square, as well as the only street level LEDs in the area.

Live feed capabilities and wireless sound allow for real time broadcasts.

Both digital displays also accommodate full motion or static images – making them the ideal complement to existing print campaigns, or as a stand alone option.

Studies show that the area enjoys a daily circulation of 117,000, with major universities, theatre and shopping districts in close proximity.

The LED modules were installed by Tribar Industries. The stainless steel facades were designed and installed by Provincial Signs of Montreal.
