The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing. ~ Socrates
Pixels

Pixel loading for the Taurus Series starts at just 650,000 which is often more than enough for a roadside digital display. We can upgrade to 1,300,000 or 2,300,000 for higher resolutions or multiple displays at a shared location with just one Taurus.

Taurus is a reliable and value-priced component of most any indoor or outdoor display that is sharing your message.

Bit Depth

1-bit is black and white, but not grey. 2-bits adds in black-grey and white-grey. 4-bits doubles that to 16 shades of grey and 8-bits brings us to 256 shades and 16,700,000 colours.

The Taurus Series defaults to 8-bits which is generally consistent with the image and video source files that provide content for commercial digital signage.

Cards

The Taurus Series relies on NovaStar Armor receiver cards plus NovaLCT Configuration Tools and ViPlex video control software.

Armor receiver cards include the A5S Plus, A8S-N and A10S Pro which provide for reliable performance and exceptional image quality, pixel-level brightness and chroma calibration.

Dimensions

The Taurus Series is compact enough to fit inside some outdoor display cabinets, where it often does so with XYZ dimensions of 274 × 139 × 40 millimeters.

The Taurus enclosue is also perfectly happy sitting on your desk or tucked away in a dark closet. We also offer a card version that can squeeze into slimmer cabinets.

Factory Warranty

NovaStar offers a 3-year warranty on all products purchased from an Authorized NovaStar Distributor and certified for use in Canada, the United States, or other corresponding markets.

The factory warranty and online technical support does not cover any NovaStar products purchased through domestic online discount warehouses or overseas bulk resellers.

Quotes

We love to provide quotes for clients, so don't hesitate to ask. Formal quotes can typically be ready for your consideration within a few hours.

At your request we can review your project with factory technicians to offer suggestions on solutions specific to your project. The rest is mostly just shipping details.

Manuals

NovaStar offers concise User Manuals in both quick-start summaries and in comprehensive formats that detail every function. We provide full technical specifications on every product we produce.

NovaStar hardware and software are further described and reviewed in depth on the NovaStar YouTube channel.

Operation

NovaStar's advanced hardware and software prioritize intuitive operation and rapid user adoption.

Our robust mechanical dials and digital interfaces enable intuitive control, dedicated setting selection, multiple pre-set configurations, and the user-centric design ensures a smooth learning curve for your team.

Performance

NovaStar products are built to perform under demanding conditions for many years.

Whether your installation is a single media player controlling a handful of receiver cards in a billboard, or a massive virtual studio creating a stage for your next theatrical release, you can count on NovaStar to be your reliable partner.
