Introduction
On the vast ocean, the ship is not only a means of transportation connecting various places, but also a vibrant “small world on the sea”.
In this world, the LED display screen quietly plays an indispensable role. So, what are the magical features of the LED display screen on the ship?

Function 1: It can enhance the information display and publicity function on the ship
1). Shipping information display
The LED display screen on the ship is like an “information housekeeper”, which can help everyone quickly understand the basic situation of the ship.
For example, the basic information, such as the name of the ship, where the ship is from, and how much tonnage it has, can be seen at a glance on the screen.
The port staff can recognise the ship at a glance, and passengers can also find the ship they want to take with confidence.
Moreover, this screen can also update the navigation status of the ship in real time, such as how fast the ship is going, which direction it is heading, and when it will arrive at the next port.
Passengers have a bottom line in their hearts, so they will not be anxious because they don’t know the progress of the trip.
2). Safety information reminder
In an emergency, the LED display on the ship is like a “little safety guard”.
Once a danger occurs, such as a fire or a collision, the display will immediately pop up a striking alarm message, such as “fire alarm”, and will also tell passengers where the fire is and how to escape.
At the same time, it will also remind everyone where the safety facilities, such as life jackets, lifeboats, and safe passages, are.
In this way, passengers can quickly find life-saving things in an emergency, escape along the correct route, and ensure their own safety.
3). Tourism promotion and introduction
For tourist ships, the LED display is like a “little tourist guide”. It will play pictures and videos of tourist attractions, and will also be accompanied by detailed introduction text.
For example, when the ship is about to arrive in Sanya, the screen will show the beautiful scenery of Sanya, such as Yalong Bay and Wuzhizhou Island, so that passengers can feel the charm of the destination in advance and have more expectations in their hearts.
In addition, if there are any fun activities on the ship, such as watching open-air movies on the deck at night, or watching dolphins at the stern, the display will also notify everyone in time.
In this way, passengers will not miss any interesting activities, and their travel experience will be richer.
Function 2: It can improve the navigation and positioning assistance functions on the ship
1). Ship positioning information display
The LED display on the ship is like a “navigator” for the crew, which can tell the crew the exact location of the ship at sea in real time.
It will clearly display the longitude and latitude of the ship. These data are like the coordinates of the ship in the sea, letting the crew know where the ship is.
For example, the crew can see that the ship is now at 120 degrees east longitude and 30 degrees north latitude, which is like putting an accurate “address label” on the ship.
This real-time positioning function is particularly useful in complex sea areas or when visibility is low.
For example, on foggy days, when nothing can be seen, the crew relies on this display to determine the location so as to avoid going off the track or colliding with other ships.
With this display, the crew has a better understanding and safer navigation. Moreover, it can help the crew monitor the location of other ships around them and avoid possible collision risks in advance.
For example, the crew can see if there are other ships approaching nearby and adjust the course or speed in advance to ensure safety.
2). Route planning and adjustment prompts
The LED display screen can not only display the real-time position of the ship, but also display the planned sailing route, just like a “sea map”.
Before departure, the crew will plan the complete route from the departure point to the destination on the screen, and passengers can also see the trajectory of their upcoming journey on the screen.
For example, if the ship is going from Shanghai to Los Angeles, a clear route will be displayed on the screen to let passengers know which sea areas the ship will pass through and how long it will take to arrive.
This transparency not only makes passengers feel at ease but also helps the crew to better monitor the progress of the voyage.
If the route needs to be adjusted in bad weather or other special circumstances, the display screen will play a greater role.
For example, if the crew finds that there is a storm ahead and needs to detour, they will re-plan the route on the display screen and notify the passengers in time.
The LED display screen will explain the reasons for the adjustment in detail, such as “There is a storm in the sea ahead.
In order to ensure safe navigation, the ship will detour to the alternate route.” At the same time, the screen will also display information such as the new route map and the estimated arrival time.
In this way, passengers can understand the crew’s decision-making, actively cooperate with the crew’s work, and jointly deal with various situations that may arise during the voyage.
For example, after seeing the new route, passengers will know why the ship has to go a little further, and they will not feel confused.
This timely information communication can not only reduce passengers’ anxiety but also make the entire voyage smoother.
Function 3: It can enhance the entertainment and social functions on the ship
1). Film, television broadcasting, and entertainment programs
During long-distance voyages, the LED display screen on the ship is like a “mobile cinema”, providing passengers with a variety of entertainment content.
It can play movies, TV series, music videos, etc., so that passengers will no longer feel bored during the long journey.
For example, passengers can watch the latest Hollywood blockbusters or their favourite TV series on the display screen in the lounge or on the deck. This rich entertainment choice can greatly alleviate the boredom of the journey.
Moreover, the LED display screen supports multiple languages and multiple types of programs to meet the needs of different passengers.
For example, there may be passengers from different countries on the ship, and the display screen can play programs in multiple languages such as English, Chinese, and Japanese, so that everyone can find their favourite content.
In this way, passenger satisfaction will naturally increase, and the travel experience will be more enjoyable.
2). Social interaction platform
LED display screens not only provide entertainment but also serve as a platform for social interaction.
For example, if someone on the ship has a birthday, the display screen can display birthday wishes so that all passengers on the ship can send their wishes.
Or if someone wants to propose, they can also display romantic proposal information through the display screen to make this special moment more memorable.
On special occasions, such as parties or events held on the ship, the role of LED display screens is even greater.
It can be used as a background screen for the event to play pictures and text related to the theme of the event.
For example, at a Halloween party, the display screen can play pictures of Halloween themes, such as pumpkin lanterns and ghosts, to create a mysterious and joyful atmosphere.
At the New Year’s party, it can play pictures such as fireworks and countdowns to let passengers feel the strong festive atmosphere.
In this way, the LED display screen not only increases the communication and interaction between passengers but also makes the entire event more interesting and memorable.
Function 4: It can enhance the commercial and advertising functions of the ship
1). Promotion of commercial activities on board
The LED display screen on the ship is like a “mobile billboard” and plays an important role in commercial activities on board.
It can promote the goods and promotions of the ship’s shops, such as duty-free goods, souvenirs, etc.
Displaying pictures, prices, and promotional information about these goods on the display screen attracts the attention of passengers and stimulates their desire to buy.
For example, the ship’s shop launches a limited edition of duty-free cosmetics, and the LED display screen can display exquisite pictures and attractive discount information to attract passengers to buy, thereby increasing the ship’s commercial income.
In addition, the LED display screen can also display the menu and special dishes of catering services.
For example, the restaurant has launched a new special seafood feast, and the display screen can display attractive pictures and detailed descriptions of this dish to guide passengers to the restaurant.
This intuitive way of publicity can not only increase the restaurant’s customer flow, but also increase the restaurant’s turnover.
In this way, the LED display screen not only provides strong publicity support for the ship’s commercial activities, but also enhances the passengers’ consumption experience, allowing them to enjoy high-quality goods and services while enjoying their travel.
2). External advertising
For some large ships, LED display screens can also be used as advertising carriers to display advertisements of external companies.
For example, a well-known travel company can place advertisements on the ship’s LED display screen to promote their travel packages.
This type of advertising not only brings additional advertising revenue to the shipping company but also attracts more potential customers.
By displaying advertisements on ships, companies can accurately target audiences who like to travel and have spending power.
At the same time, the shipping company can also evaluate the effectiveness of advertising.
For example, by counting passenger flow and consumption data during the advertising period, the actual effect of the advertisement can be analysed.
This precise audience positioning and effect evaluation make LED display screens very valuable in commercial marketing.
It not only brings additional sources of income to the shipping company but also provides advertisers with an efficient publicity platform, achieving a win-win effect.
5. Conclusion
From information display to safety assurance, from entertainment interaction to commercial value-added, the LED display screen on the ship is adding infinite possibilities to every voyage in its unique way.
It not only makes the journey more convenient and safe, but also makes sea travel full of fun and surprises.
