Coro Board Pixel Spacing

[CharlieM]

Be warned, a COMPLETE rookie here!

I’m wanting to build my own boards for a Sunday school room. Room name, a bible verse maybe, etc.. But pixel spacing has me stumped. I’ve read that on typical outdoor displays your looking at 3” spacing. But indoors where your viewing from 8’ away, any thoughts on spacing?

FYI the room is painted all black. Used for puppets, movie watching, etc.. Thanks for any input!

For something where the viewer will be close to the sign, you might consider a couple P5 panels. Otherwise, I think about 3/4” to 1” centers is about the closest you can get pixels in coro without it breaking when you’re inserting them.

From 8 feet away, I would use a TV and forgo the individual nodes. How big were you thinking the sign would be?

One idea was:
Worship
Our
Way
First letters capital, all words on their own line. So guessing total area would be 4’Hx6’L?

Someone had suggested a LED TV. This way you could customize it weekly / monthly, etc

A tv would likely be your best bet

So a LED TV, that I could get. But what would be the best way to program it? Rasp Pi? Or.???
