On February 6 (local time), the Opening Ceremony of the 2026 Milan-Cortina Winter Olympics officially commenced. At the International Broadcast Centre (IBC), a 275-inch Micro LED 8K ultra-high-definition giant screen, independently developed by Ledman, was simultaneously illuminated. Serving as the core display terminal within China Media Group’s (CMG) 8K broadcast ecosystem, it officially launched the high-quality audiovisual presentation of the Olympic Games.
A Guardian Throughout, Defining a New Visual Standard for Olympic Broadcasting
As the exclusive 8K display terminal for the Milan Winter Olympics, this giant screen from Ledman’s QS Series “Icescreen Master” works in deep synergy with CMG’s “China Red” ultra-HD broadcast system, using its ultimate display capabilities to restore every detail of the grand opening ceremony. Leveraging COB packaging technology and a P0.79 ultra-fine pixel pitch, the screen boasts a resolution of 7680×4320. Its 33 million independent color units precisely reproduce every nuance of the ceremony—from the brilliant lighting of the Olympic flame and the spirited entrance of athletes from various nations, to the spectacular performances blending Italian artistry with modern technology—offering on-site guests an immersive “crystal-clear” visual experience.
Throughout the Games, this Ledman 8K screen will undertake core visual presentation tasks:
Full 8K Broadcast of Opening & Closing Ceremonies: Presenting the grandeur of the flame lighting, delegation parades, and artistic performances.
Live 8K Broadcast of Key Events: Providing 8K + 3D audio ultra-HD broadcasts for figure skating, short track speed skating, and other events.
Technology Showcase & Content Screening: Facilitating 4K public signal distribution, ultra-HD documentary screenings, and sports highlights reels.
Crucial Window for International Exchange: Serving as an immersive platform for global rights-holding broadcasters and technical experts.
Technical Excellence: Three Core Advantages Forge a Quality Benchmark
The Ledman 275-inch 8K screen incorporates three core technologies: SmartCool AI (intelligent low-power display), PowerBalance (ultra-precise voltage control), and TrueBlack (lossless direct display on dark base). While delivering ultimate picture quality, it achieves a 50% reduction in power consumption, with surface temperatures as low as 30.5°C, embodying the “Green Olympics” vision with its green technology and showcasing the innovative spirit of Chinese manufacturing. During the Opening Ceremony broadcast, rights-holding broadcasters, technical experts, and journalists from around the world gathered in the 8K showcase hall, experiencing the screen’s卓越 performance firsthand and witnessing the robust strength of China’s ultra-HD display technology.
Renewing Olympic Ties: China’s Display Technology Continues to Break Through
Following its contribution to the “Ice and Snow Five Rings” at the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics, Ledman once again serves the Olympic Games with its self-developed Micro LED display technology. This collaboration is not only a rigorous test of product performance but also a powerful demonstration of Chinese display technology on the world’s top sporting stage.
For the next two weeks, the Ledman 275-inch 8K giant screen will remain illuminated, guiding the Olympic broadcast with great picture quality and stable performance. It will present every thrilling moment to a global audience, allowing the power and beauty of winter sports to unfold perfectly within an ultra-high-definition visual world.
