ClearLED Celebrates Two Top 3 Wins at the 2026 DSF Pixel Awards
ClearLED is proud to announce that two of our projects have earned Top 3 recognition at the 2026 Digital Signage Federation (DSF) Pixel Awards. Recognized in the Engagement Engine and Behind the Screens categories, these achievements celebrate the creativity, technical expertise, and collaboration behind two distinctive LED installations.
Pacific Place - 4-Story Transparent LED Wall
DSF Pixel Awards: Engagement Engine
At Pacific Place in downtown Seattle, ClearLED’s 85' × 35' MicroMesh Tour transparent LED display has become a striking centerpiece of the destination.
Designed to integrate digital content with the building’s architecture, the installation delivers large-scale visuals while preserving transparency and allowing the surrounding space to remain visible. Its scale and acoustically transparent design make it a distinctive solution for a busy urban retail environment.
The display demonstrated its impact during Pacific Place’s FIFA takeover, when thousands of fans gathered daily to watch live matches. By turning the space into a shared viewing destination, the installation helped bring people together and create a memorable public experience.
The project’s Top 3 recognition in the Engagement Engine category celebrates its ability to connect audiences with a place through impactful digital experiences.
Bristol Digital Futures Institute - 360° Reality Emulator
DSF Pixel Awards: Behind the Screens
At the University of Bristol’s Bristol Digital Futures Institute (BDFI), ClearLED technology helps power a fully immersive 360° Reality Emulator, designed to support research, visualization, simulation, and collaboration.
The installation uses ClearLED’s RIBBON Series to create an immersive visual environment that surrounds users with digital content. With high-performance display technology supporting smooth, detailed imagery, the Reality Emulator enables researchers and industry partners to explore complex scenarios and ideas in new ways.
Delivering this experience required careful technical planning and coordination to achieve the visual performance and seamless integration needed for a 360° environment. The project reflects how LED technology can become more than a display surface — it can be an essential part of an immersive space.
Its Top 3 recognition in the Behind the Screens category acknowledges the technology, engineering, and collaboration behind this ambitious installation.
Celebrating Innovation and Collaboration
We’re honored to receive recognition for these two projects at the 2026 DSF Pixel Awards. Each represents a different application of LED technology, yet both share a common goal: creating experiences that bring people, spaces, and digital content together. From transforming a major retail destination in downtown Seattle into a vibrant gathering place to creating an immersive 360° environment for research and simulation, both projects demonstrate how LED technology can go beyond traditional displays to shape meaningful digital experiences.
We extend our thanks to the Digital Signage Federation for recognizing our work, as well as to our clients, partners, and project teams whose collaboration made these installations possible.
At ClearLED, we continue to explore what’s possible when display technology and creative vision work together - transforming architectural spaces, engaging audiences, and opening new possibilities for digital experiences.
