How many Nvidia GPUs does it take to power 1.2 million programmable LEDs and a 160,000 square-foot display? Quite a lot.

The Las Vegas Sphere isn’t even a year old yet, but it’s already garnered a lot of attention — and now, Nvidia has revealed its role in coordinating the almost 750,000 square feet of displays both outside and inside the building.

Recommended Videos On the inside, the event space is made up of a seating area for around 17,000 people and a gigantic wraparound screen that covers all visible wall and ceiling space. The display is 160,000 square feet with a 16K by 16K resolution — here’s a video that shows the scale and shape of it quite well.

To keep all of the different display panels and programmable LEDs perfectly synchronized, the Sphere uses Nvidia BlueField data processing units and Nvidia’s Rivermax media streaming software — which can achieve sub-microsecond accuracy.
