[0006] Prior Art
[0007] In free market economies, there is intense competition between businesses. In such an environment, advertising acts as a bridge between the consumer and the manufacturer. For consumers, advertising is a tool that promotes its products and services, tells them how to use it and where to get the most economical product, what kind of benefits it will provide to them if products and services are bought. For businesses, advertising is much more vital than it is for consumers. With advertising, businesses can choose a route for themselves by learning the dynamics of the market and also achieve the sales, competition and branding purposes related to the market. Also, advertising is an effective tool for businesses in terms of creating a brand, adding value to the brand, making a corporate impression and creating image and reputation. Thus, advertisements contribute positively to product sales activities and company budgets. In other words, advertising has an important place for both the consumer and the manufacturer.
[0008] Today, advertising and promotion have an important place in the process from the production of a product to the presentation to the market. Advertising is important in terms of creating a brand, adding value to the brand, making a corporate impression, creating image and reputation. Advertisements contribute positively to product sales activities and company budgets Today, outdoor advertisement boards have an important place in this sector. Especially with the advancement of technology, LED advertising screens are becoming more and more common throughout the world. These LED display technologies, which are rapidly increasing in popularity in outdoor advertising, are of significant importance for the digital advertising sector
