Digital Transformation of Metro Pillars in Lucknow for Jagran Engage

Upgrading Static Signage with Orion Rigel Series P3 LED Displays

In a strategic collaboration with Jagran Engage, Orion LED executed the digital transformation of static advertising boards into vibrant, high-resolution LED display screens across Lucknow Metro pillars. This large-scale DOOH installation featured 22 vertically mounted, dual-sided P3 LED screens from Orion’s Rigel Series, delivering higher ad inventory, creative flexibility, and increased visibility for multiple brand campaigns.

The Client Need

Jagran Engage aimed to modernize traditional metro pillar advertising by:

Key Challenges

The urban metro setting presented unique technical hurdles:

No Drilling Permitted on Metro Pillars

Standard installation techniques couldn’t be used, requiring a zero-impact mounting approach.

Tight Viewing Distance

With pedestrians and commuters passing closely by, the display needed fine pixel clarity even at short range.

Height and Synchronization

Ensuring consistent creative alignment across multiple screens and heights was crucial for brand storytelling.

The Orion LED Solution

As one of India’s top LED display manufacturers, Orion LED designed a custom solution:

High-Resolution P3 Panels

Our Rigel Series P3 LED display delivered sharp visuals even at close viewing distances perfect for metro traffic.

Custom Clamp-Based Mounting

With no drilling allowed, our team engineered a non-invasive clamp system, securing displays to both sides of 22 metro pillars without affecting the infrastructure.

6500 Nits Brightness

Custom-calibrated brightness ensured high visibility in daylight conditions, powered by Nation Star gold-bonded bulbs for superior longevity and brightness.

Shadow-Optimized Design

Special panel casing was developed to minimize shadow effects and enhance edge-to-edge clarity.

Centralized Content Control

All 22 screens are synchronized using a custom CMS platform, allowing real-time creative changes and seamless coordination across all displays.
