Muxwave makes transparent LED displays that mount directly to glass. The bonded panels are 1.8mm thick and weigh 6kg per square metre, and the range runs from 85% to 95% transparent depending on pixel pitch, so you can put a large-format screen in a window, an atrium or a balustrade without blocking the light or the view behind it.
What separates Muxwave from most transparent LED is what is not there. The modules carry the LEDs and nothing else, with no frame, no supporting bars and no grid holding the pixels in place. Muxwave call it a keel-less design, and it is the reason the screens read as glass with an image on it rather than as a screen mounted in front of a window.
At Amped Digital, we specify Muxwave where a solid display would shut a space down: shopfront glazing, mezzanine edges and feature walls in heritage interiors.
Transparent LED for Every Surface
Muxwave build four ranges, split by how the screen mounts rather than by resolution. We will advise which of the range bests suits your surface, then choose the pixel pitch that suits the viewing distance.

How Muxwave Screens Go In
Three things about Muxwave change how we plan a job.
Keel-less construction
Most semi-transparent LED uses horizontal bars to hold the emitters and carry power and signal, so from behind you see a grid. Muxwave build from the modules alone, which is why we’ll put one somewhere people walk on both sides. One thing we plan around: above 4.22 metres of screen height a joint bar is needed, so we keep feature screens under that where the design allows.
No structure to engineer
At 6kg per square metre bonded to glass, there’s no steel for us to design, engineer or hide. That’s why transparent LED is often the only thing we can get approved in a heritage building, where drilling and structural additions are the first things knocked back.
Content, control and service
Every LED has its own driver IC, 65,536 per square metre at 3.91mm, so a failed pixel stays a failed pixel instead of taking a row with it. We run these on standard Novastar control, the same workflow as the rest of our LED work. The adhesive is reusable, so we take modules off and put them back for service — and we scope that into support up front, because it’s a different job to pulling a cabinet off a wall.
Muxwave at MECCA Bourke Street
On Level One of MECCA’s Bourke Street flagship, a 4,500 x 3,000mm Muxwave screen at 3.91mm pitch hangs in front of the Meccaversity education space. It was the first transparent metal mesh LED installation of its kind in Australia.
A solid display in that position would have walled the education space off from the rest of the floor. The transparent build carries full campaign content while leaving the sightlines and the 150-year-old architecture behind it visible.
The store is heritage-listed, so every mounting method and cable route needed approval, and 13.5 square metres of screen went in at 81 kilograms total with no supporting structure to justify. Darren Farrell, our Head of Technology, walks through the screen and why we chose it.
