Round LED display, also known as circular LED display, is another creative design of LED display for unique visual content presentation. It can be widely used at retail stores, clubs, bars, DJ booths, exhibitions, concerts, ceremonies, and events. So why is it so popular? How can we make a round LED display? No worry! Here in this article, we’ll give a complete guide over round LED displays.
Round LED display are widely used in stage events to gain focused attention from the audiences.
Circles are being seen everywhere in our world, from the nature such as the sun and the moon, and to the man made things in round shapes, for example, clocks, and badges, etc.
We human beings are obsessed with circles for several reasons.
Our primitive ancestors thought circles mean safety and used circles to fortify their dwellings. That’s the root why we are drawn to circular shapes.
Researches also show that circles trigger positive emotions. A theory of “roundness effect” suggests that our brain process curves more easily than angles. And we tend to associate circles to happiness, comfort, and friendliness.
Our eyes naturally create spherical distortions when we look at something, and this makes our brain are biased to circles.

Another reason can be a circle itself is a perfect shape in beauty principles.
So circular designs make great power to convey a sense of balance, harmony, and unity in our daily life. That’s why round LED displays are popular just like other circular designs we see.
We can make a round LED display through different approaches.
The simplest way to acquire a circular LED display is to wrap a conventional rectangular LED display in an inside circular frame. This will cover the angles on a rectangular LED display and make it become a round LED display easily.
The disadvantage of this method is that large margins are left on the corners of the display, and can affect the overall aesthetics to a certain extent.
The second option is much alike the first one. We can utilize different sized and shaped LED modules to create an initial round shape, and then conceal the edges to form a perfect round LED display with a frame.
Another way to achieve circular shaped LED display is more complicated and costly.
In this method, we should first design and manufacture sector shaped PCBs for LED mounting.
Second, we mount LEDs onto the specifically designed PCBs, and then assemble them together into a round LED display.
The advantage of this method is we can a perfect round shaped LED display without unnecessary edges, which is more visually appealing.
There are trapezoidal LED modules available on the market that can be spliced into circular LED displays. This is a more reasonable option to make large size circular LED displays when compared to the two previously mentioned methods.

A round LED display can help us to achieve different goals in daily use.
A round LED display is commonly used for brand promotion. For example, at every store of the worldwide famous coffee brand, Starbucks, we see a round LED display presenting the logo of Starbucks.
These round LED display logos can be also seen at the chain restaurants of McDonald, KFC, Pizza Hut.
A round LED display for brand promotion usually hangs up at the front and near the door of a retail store or a chain store to present brand logo and attract consumers.
Some retails stores also use round LED displays for advertising, for example, hot sale products, discount information, etc.
In concerts, ceremonies, and various types of events, round LED displays can be used to express unique theme of the event. For example, in mid-autumn festival ceremonies in China,round LED displays are widely used to stand for the moon, which means family reunion in China tradition.
