LED Array
Explanation:
Da man nicht weiß, welche Funktion die LEDs hier haben (Anzeige, Lichteffekte etc.), würde ich array nehmen. Displays aus LEDs bestehen nicht nur aus senkrecht montierten LEDs. Sie sind dann flächig angeordnet.

Da es im Deutschen keinerlei Entsprechung gibt (googeln mit +led +lamelle bringt kein Ergebnis), denke ich, dass Du mit \"vertical array of LEDs\" (senkrecht in Reihe angeordnete LEDs) nicht schlecht liegst. Und zu technisch is \"array\" wohl auch nicht.

LED display/LED screen


Explanation:
See good google references below. Believe it stands for "liquid electronic display" but not 100% on acronym.

It is definitely \"LED display\", but it stands for \"light emitting diode\"!!!!

Have finally got definite answer: Die \"LED-Lamallae\" sind \"LED panels\" which are positioned vertically, horizontally, whatever, to form a bigger screen or display.

eg. \"LED screens are capable of displayingimage sources from most types of com-puter data, graphics, recorded video, andlive-camera feeds. Panels can be usedindividually as set elements, combined toform vertical or horizontal strips, or usedin the conventional way as a completegiant screen that can use almost anyaspect ratio from the standard 4:3 television format to 16:9 widescreen towherever your imagination takes you\"
From http://images.sromagazine.biz/files/168/301srodisplay.pdf

Some other good google hits for \"LED panels\" in this context, used to form a bigger screen or display.

Here\'s another good example:

LED screen is an LED-Leinwand (see previous glossary entry).

neutral  Kevin Fulton: LED = "light-emitting diode" Different principle
5 mins
  -> But I added a note to say it was l.. emitting diode...
agree  Brandis (X)
9 hrs
  -> Thanks!
neutral  invguy: A display or screen would hardly have a vertical configuration - unless the text content is in Chinese, of course.
17 hrs
  -> Good point - for this reason "display" is probably the best option and is certainly used in an exhibition context.

agree  Textklick: Absolutely
6 hrs
  -> Thanks!
agree  invguy: Reasonable, indeed. Yet I'd say 'array' would rather fit a technical description - and we don't know if this is the case.
6 hrs
  -> Thanks!
neutral  Dr Andrew Read: I feel this is getting too technical; "LED screen" or display seems to be the standard term in an exhibition context. See my web refs above.

  -> Ich weiß nicht, was an "array" so technisch ist. Array = etwas in einer Reihe angeordnetes

LED modules


Explanation:
IMHO 'module' is a good neutral solution, regardless of the specifics. It's about some kind of modular structure built on those LED modules, that's for sure.

I'd presume the LED modules in this case are used rather as a light source, not as alphanumeric or image display elements.

Or maybe \'LED panels\'... whatever that means... might be some wall panels lined with LED lights or something...

neutral  Dr Andrew Read: Again, does not seem to be the standard phrase in an exhibition display context (from googling); LED panel seems okay.
1 hr
  -> Don't know about you, Andrew, but I wouldn't call a 'display' or 'screen' anything that fits under 'Lamellen' :)
