Blimpsign (Burbank, CA) is unveiling its Blimpscreen inflatable video or projection screen. Designed for front or rear projection, the screen can be erected and deflated quickly. Available in various sizes, the reportedly weatherproof screen can withstand light winds. The detachable screens can be replaced with optional rear-projection surfaces, scrims or painted signs for daytime display.

The company also is offering its Blimpboard inflatable billboard for single- or two-sided exposure to traffic for temporary signage. Available in a standard 15-ft. width, as well as other dimensions, the billboard is offered in various colors and can be inflated in less than a minute, the company reports. The unit has a 5-ft. base and can be tethered to remain in place. The UV-resistant, weatherproof fabric can be painted or printed. Lighting is available for nighttime display.
