London Live is a new channel dedicated to broadcasting entertainment 24/7 and to make the announcements about its launch as big as possible, the Curb Media agency set up a giant TV bus. It took over 1,000 hours to turn the double decker bus into a [giant TV screen](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/largescale-digital-signage) and now, the giant TV bus is the second biggest outdoor screen in London and the [largest vehicular screen ever](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/3d-billboards).

The bus is made up of [over 230,000 LED lights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hisense-ux-rgb-miniled-tv) and produces over 24 billion colors at a rate of one hundred frames per second. The bus was parked at Marble Arch Stadium and hooked up to a camera, so that people passing by could interact and see themselves on the big screen.
