You might have heard about the Yas Hotel recently—the building, located in Abu Dhabi, is now home to the largest LED display in the world. Designed to resemble a fisherman’s net, it features multi-colored lights and can even play video clips. Launched on November 3, 2009, the hotel’s display has around 5,000 LED items on 5,300 diamond-shaped steel panels. The Yas itself is made up of two 12 story buildings, which sit on top of a Formula-1 race track.

 There’s no doubt that all of this is pretty spectacular. Still, the Yas installation will most likely be the world’s largest LED display only momentarily.

The digital display industry is moving forward at a break neck speed—many of the world’s past largest displays were installed fairly recently. The GreenPix Zero Energy Media Wall was installed in 2008 for Beijing’s Summer Olympics when it boasted the title of ”The World’s Largest Color LED Display.” Now, less than two years later, the world has a bigger and brighter contender.

Simply put, more spectacular displays are inevitably on the way. Where? We’d love to see one on the Golden Gate Bridge, but that’s just our opinion.
