IMTS 2026 Case Study
At IMTS 2026 in Chicago, Popshap supported multiple exhibits across McCormick Place with a large deployment of LED and interactive technology. The equipment included a 45-tile LED wall, connected LED posters, six 55-inch touchscreen tables, 22 non-touch monitors, a 32-inch touchscreen table, two rotating kiosks, custom software, cameras, and branded vinyl elements. Each product served a specific purpose, from increasing visibility across the show floor to supporting product demonstrations, self-guided exploration, and attendee engagement. Careful coordination, installation support, and onsite technical service helped bring each experience together across one of the manufacturing industry’s largest shows.
Large Format LED Visibility
A 45-tile LED wall arranged in a 9-by-5 configuration created a high-impact digital centerpiece within a large exhibit environment.
The 1.9mm LED display delivered bright, detailed content that could be seen from across the show floor, helping draw attention and strengthen the presentation of products and branded messaging.
Two connected folding LED posters expanded that visibility in another exhibit while offering a flexible format for coordinated digital content.
Interactive Touchscreen Tables
Six 55-inch touchscreen tables created multiple interactive stations where attendees could explore content and engage with product information directly.
A 32-inch touchscreen table provided the same hands-on experience within a more compact footprint, making interactive technology possible in a smaller exhibit area.
Together, the tables supported self-guided discovery, detailed demonstrations, and more personalized conversations.
Coordinated Digital Content
Twenty-two 55-inch non-touch monitors created a large network of digital displays for presentations, product information, videos, and supporting visuals.
Custom software helped organize the experience across the screens, while cameras added another layer of functionality to the overall technology package.
The coordinated display system allowed more content to be presented at once without overwhelming the physical space.
Flexible Rotating Kiosks
Two 49-inch rotating kiosks provided flexible digital display solutions that could support both portrait and landscape content.
Their adaptable format made them useful for videos, product presentations, branded messaging, and other content needs throughout the event.
Five custom vinyl logos also helped integrate the technology into the surrounding exhibit designs and create a more finished presentation.
At a show the size of IMTS, visibility plays an important role in helping an exhibit stand out.
The 45-tile LED wall created a large digital focal point with the scale and brightness needed to reach attendees moving through a busy exhibit hall.
Connected LED posters brought that same visual energy to another location in a flexible folding format.
Together, the LED products helped turn branded content into an active part of the exhibit environment instead of relying on static graphics alone.
The touchscreen tables gave attendees direct control over how they explored product information.
Six 55-inch tables supported several interactions at once, helping distribute engagement across a larger exhibit and reduce dependence on a single demonstration area.
A 32-inch touchscreen table brought interactive content into a more compact space, while 22 non-touch monitors supported videos, presentations, and additional product messaging.
This combination created a balance between hands-on exploration and easy-to-view digital content throughout the exhibits.
Two 49-inch rotating kiosks added adaptable digital touchpoints that could accommodate different content formats and placement needs.
Custom software, cameras, and branded vinyl elements helped tailor the equipment to each individual experience while maintaining a polished presentation.
With products installed across multiple exhibits and areas of McCormick Place, careful scheduling and technical coordination were essential.
Popshap supported installation, setup, and onsite operation to help keep the technology performing throughout IMTS 2026.
