A Look at ViewSonic’s Massive New Display on Wheels

This may be a bold claim, but we think ViewSonic’s new video display, the LDS135-151, may forever change business presentations and trade events. 

It’s rare that a new piece of tech truly shakes up the industry, but what we have here is essentially a portable, foldable video wall. 

The LDS135-151 is a 135-inch Direct View LED screen. Typically, most Direct-View LEDs require assembling multiple panels together, taking as long as two hours to install. Now, setup is reduced to as little as five minutes, and the massive display can be wheeled around the room or building. 

Let’s take a closer look at ViewSonic’s latest innovation.

Condense Your Apps Into One Smart System 

To any homeowner who’s interested in smart home living, we tell them the best decision they can make is having a professional install a home automation system. 

But this recommendation is often received with skepticism. “I don’t need a whole smart home system!” they say. “I just want some smart lights and a smart thermostat and a few other things.” 

Fine, fine, fair enough. But as you begin to collect more smart home devices over the years, you may find yourself in over your head with apps and remotes. Here’s where it can go wrong. 

Let’s Take a Closer Look. 

“Is Ketra really worth it?” 

It’s a common question searched online and asked by our showroom visitors. Because while Ketra is regarded as the gold standard of tunable lighting control, it does have a notably higher price tag than products like Philips Hue. So, is it really the best? 

To understand Ketra’s value, it’s best experienced in person. But until then, let’s explore what makes Ketra more than just another lighting product, and why it’s trusted by design professionals, homeowners, and architects alike.

Not Just Bulbs: A Complete Line of Architectural Lighting

While most smart lighting brands focus on retrofittable LED bulbs, Ketra offers an expansive architectural-grade line: recessed downlights, linear tape lights, and track lights, all fully color-tunable across 16 million colors. We can use Ketra alone to create complete lighting designs, from ambient and accent lighting to task-focused areas.

The technology is equally advanced: each Ketra fixture contains a 16-diode chip, giving it the precision to render the exact hues and dynamic white tuning you desire. 

Getting Started with Direct-View LED Walls 

From command centers to retail spaces, all types of businesses thrive with a video wall display. 

While the video wall has been around for quite some time (first introduced in the early 1980s), the latest, greatest version in 2025 is the Direct View LED Video Wall. Unlike previous iterations, DVLEDs don’t use a backlight to display an image. Instead, each individual LED diode is both a light source and a pixel. Each pixel emits its own light, creating richer colors and a smooth, grid-free image. 

Direct View LED walls are also completely modular and scalable to any size or aspect ratio—which is especially helpful for any business looking to get creative with their video wall display. You don’t have to stick to one image or video on the screen. Why not use your wall-sized screen to share all the content you desire? 

Whether you need game coverage in a sports bar or wayfinding content in an airport, a commercial integrator like Texadia Systems can help you customize the number of images/videos on display. Here’s how it works. 

Two Essential Components: the Processor & Controller 

To set up your video wall’s display, you’ll need a quality processor and controller, which serve two very distinct purposes:

Why the Most Successful Modern Offices Are Designed Systematically 

Most organizations move into an empty office space and from there, build their technology one room at a time. A conference room gets upgraded. A huddle space gets a new display. Another team purchases its own video conferencing solution. 

Over time, the office becomes a collection of disconnected experiences, with some rooms up to modern standards—and others left somewhere in the mid-2000s.   

Today’s leading organizations are taking a different approach. Instead of making isolated technology decisions, they're designing connected collaboration ecosystems that consistently support hybrid work and create a better experience for all employees, wherever they decide to meet. Here’s how they’re doing it.  

How Networking Powers Today’s Lighting, Shading, & Automation Systems

Most people tend to focus on the fun, flashy aspects of smart home living: beautiful lighting scenes, motorized shades, whole-home audio, etc. And it’s understandable—that’s the part you want to experience in your home. 

But what many homeowners don't realize is that every one of these experiences depends on something less visible: a professionally designed network. In this article, we'll explore how networking infrastructure supports today's most sophisticated smart homes in and around Dallas–Fort Worth, and what homeowners should consider when building or upgrading their residences. 

Attract (and Keep!) Top Talent While Improving Productivity in Your Meeting Spaces 

How is your conference room’s lighting? 

While it may not seem like the most urgent concern, your office’s environment can have a direct impact on employee performance, productivity, and morale. If people dislike being in your office, even if only a few days a week, they’ll be more likely to look elsewhere for work. 

Texadia Systems works with businesses across Dallas-Fort Worth, and we’ve seen our fair share of poor meeting room lighting. After we come in and update the lighting design, people are amazed at how much more enjoyable it is to meet and collaborate in their meeting spaces. 

So, whether you’re moving into a new unit or upgrading your current workspace, consider the following updates to your conference room lighting.

First, Get As Much Natural Light as Possible 

We can’t stress this enough. While most of us know intuitively that natural light makes us happier, there’s science to back it up. A 2018 study by the World Green Building Council found that workers in offices with natural light reported up to 15 percent higher levels of well-being, productivity, and creativity. A study by Cornell University also found that workers in daylit offices experience 84 percent less eye strain, headaches, and blurred vision compared to artificially-lit spaces. 

Glass-walled conference rooms are a hallmark of today’s modern, open-concept office. In urban Dallas offices—especially coworking spaces, design firms, and corporate headquarters—they offer sleek aesthetics, natural light, and a sense of transparency.

However, they come with two major acoustic challenges: echo and lack of privacy.

If your glass wall conference room in Dallas, TX, sounds more like a gymnasium than a meeting space, you’re not alone. Fortunately, solutions like acoustic treatments, sound masking, and AV integration can transform your space into a functional, private environment. Let’s explore how.

Host In-Person and Hybrid Meetings with Ease 

Is your company building new conference rooms or renovating your existing ones?

What an exciting opportunity! You have the chance to create a dynamic, comfortable, and aesthetically pleasing space that makes it easy to collaborate—even with remote team members. 

To prepare your business for a future of successful meetings, make sure the following features are on your conference room checklist. 

Enhance Your Healthcare Campus with Advanced AV Solutions

Effective communication is non-negotiable, especially for institutions that serve as hubs for innovation, collaboration, and ongoing training. One leading hospital in the Dallas/Fort Worth area recognized that its existing auditorium Audio Video setup no longer met the needs of modern medical education and leadership meetings.

They turned to Texadia Systems to deliver an AV transformation that would support their commitment to excellence without disrupting current infrastructure. The resulting state-of-the-art auditorium supports high-impact presentations, seamless collaboration, and user-friendly operation for medical professionals and administrators alike.

How Hybrid Work Has Changed the Rules

The predictable 9-to-5 office no longer defines how buildings are used. Today, employees, vendors, and guests move in and out of offices on flexible schedules, and many spaces sit partially occupied (or unoccupied) throughout the week.

That variability introduces new vulnerabilities:

• Empty offices during off-hours
• Inconsistent staff presence
• Increased reliance on temporary access permissions
• Increased curiosity into who is onsite at any given time

As our habits change, our security should adapt alongside them. When staff members may only be in the office a few days per week or month, chasing them down to issue a new badge or replace keys is a quest that can easily fall through the cracks. But with a centralized, cloud-based platform—one that lets you access and update entry credentials from anywhere? It’s done in seconds. 

Let’s take a closer look at how Dallas-Fort Worth businesses are adapting their access control security for the hybrid workplace. 

Elevating Interior Design with a Touch of Brass 

When many people hear ‘home automation,’ they think of glossy screens and futuristic gadgets. But Lutron offers a refreshing alternative for whole-home lighting control: the Aviena keypad. 

Designed with antique charm and performance, Aviena proves that smart technology can also be beautiful.

If you’re in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area and planning a luxury home build or renovation, here’s why this new lighting control solution deserves your attention.

Get the Custom Width & Length to Match Your Frame TV  

You care about how your home looks, right? You aren’t a college kid with thumb-tacked posters and a hodgepodge of random furniture. No, you’re an adult with taste and a home you take pride in. 

So, if you’re reading this, you probably understand the clash between interior design and setting up an attractive entertainment system. You could have the most beautifully cultivated furniture, artwork, and lighting—and then a clunky TV setup disturbs the entire aesthetic.  

Thankfully, many technology manufacturers are catching on and offering solutions to make TVs appear more aesthetically pleasing. Samsung’s The Frame television resembles a real piece of art when powered off, and fits ultra-slim to your wall. 

And now, audio manufacturer Leon has released a soundbar to perfectly fit the width and dimensions of any Frame AV. Meet the Leon FrameBar, the soundbar built for audio and design enthusiasts alike. 

The Soundbar Made for The Frame 

Leon’s FrameBar is custom-built to match the precise dimensions and frame color of any Samsung Frame TV, creating a unified, polished look. With its ultra-thin cabinet (as slim as 2.375 inches), the FrameBar installs flush to the wall using Leon’s exclusive mounting brackets.

That’s why we trust Shure’s IntelliMix Room Kits when integrating Microsoft Teams Rooms.

Whether you're designing a new office in Dallas/Ft. Worth or upgrading an existing meeting space, this solution combines premium audio, intelligent video, and effortless control in a package that eliminates technical headaches. And we’ll install, scale, and support it all for you.

The Rise of Design-Integrated Lighting & Shading Systems

Did you know 52 percent of interior designers and architects believe proper lighting design can enhance even the most modest homes? Meanwhile, 47 percent believe the wrong lighting design hinders even the most luxurious spaces.  

We certainly agree. We’ve met homeowners who spent millions on their properties, only to leave rooms with “four cans and a fan” lighting that cast a dull light and harsh shadows. On the windows, people leave lopsided blinds with tangled cords, unintentionally hindering their home’s appearance. 

That’s why lighting design is gaining momentum in new builds and renovations. And thankfully, more high-end lighting and shading brands are offering design-centric options, making it easier to create a beautiful ambiance while reducing tech clutter. 

The Rise of “Quiet Ceilings” 

We’re all familiar with “popcorn” or “cottage cheese” ceilings, the lumpy design trend that’s now ubiquitous with the 1980s and ‘90s. Another trend that’s reached its expiration date? “Swiss cheese ceilings.” 

You’ve seen them: ceilings that look hole-punched with large recessed lights, some as large as 6 inches wide. These grids of circles cast an unflattering glare, often making rooms feel more like a dentist’s office than a luxury home. 

Why It’s Time to Ditch the Single-Router, Multi-App Smart Home Setup

Does this sound like your home? 

You have a single, consumer-grade Wi-Fi router that’s used on every floor and in every room, serving sometimes dozens of devices at once. Your entertainment, home office, and smart devices all rely on this router alone—and sometimes your technology stalls or becomes unresponsive. 

On top of that, every IoT device has its own app, cloud account, and even sometimes its own physical remote. You’re left juggling three or four apps for the smart bulbs, another for the security cameras, and a pile of remotes to control your TV and soundbar setup. It’s madness! 

This was the old way. Thankfully, there is now a smarter, simpler approach to living with home technology, with help from your local integrator. 

Meet Q-SYS, the Modern AV Platform for Businesses

In today’s IT-driven world, everything from security to communications is built on scalable, software-driven solutions—except, for many businesses, AV. 

Traditional AV systems are still clunky, hardware-heavy, and difficult to integrate, leaving IT teams scrambling to manage disparate devices that don’t play well together. 

If your AV setup feels like a constant headache—requiring custom programming, endless troubleshooting, and costly upgrades—you’re not alone. But it doesn’t have to be this way. The Q-SYS OS by QSC is changing the game, bringing the same IT-friendly approach to AV that businesses have relied on for decades in their networking and software infrastructures. Here’s how it works—and why your business needs it.

Create a Versatile Media Room with Home Theater-Level AV 

Do you crave the ultra-wide screen, surround sound, and cinematic experience that a home theater provides—but aren’t sure if you have room for a home theater? Or maybe you do have the space yet wonder how often you’ll use a room with only a screen and seating. 

There’s a happy medium between dedicated home theaters and a living room setup, and that’s the media room. Perhaps a media room is a better fit for your Highland Park, TX home. You can still enjoy the high-quality audio and video setup you’d find in a home theater installation, but with more flexibility for other activities. 

Below we’ll share how you can create a multipurpose media room and what equipment to include. And to learn more about the world of home theaters, subscribe to our monthly newsletter here! 

Faster, More Reliable Wi-Fi for the Modern Home 

Not too long ago, we were writing about the exciting new internet protocol, Wi-Fi 6. But as our homes become ever more connected—and Audio Video streaming quality improves—that puts even more demand on our Wi-Fi. 

Enter Wi-Fi 7, the newest iteration of Wi-Fi standards, now available on home networking devices from brands like WhyReboot and Ruckus. Wi-Fi 7 offers accelerated connectivity, solid reliability, and performance that only compares to wired networks. Streaming 8K, gaming online, and smart home devices are all improved with a Wi-Fi 7 network. 

Here’s what you can expect from a Wi-Fi 7 upgrade and why you’ll be thankful you switched. 

What Is Wi-Fi 7? How Is It Different? 

The new Wi-Fi 7 promises enhanced speeds and reliability. Intel describes Wi-Fi 7 as having “wired-like responsiveness.” It packs more data into each transmission with 320 MHz channels—double the size of Wi-Fi 6. 

Wi-Fi 7 arrives at a perfect time, as 4K and 8K streaming becomes even more prevalent. Wi-Fi 7 can easily handle high-quality 8K video streaming, so you can enjoy movie night without buffering and pixelation.
