Daktronics (NASDAQ-DAKT) of Brookings, South Dakota, has been asked to install two large LED video displays at Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park Stadium, London, in time for the 2015 Rugby World Cup – and at the start of the next football season, these displays will be the largest in the English Premier League when West Ham United FC calls the venue its new home.
Daktronics Regional Manager Ewan Prentice told us “Daktronics is really excited about being part of such a legacy project. This stadium has already played host to many records through the London 2012 Olympic Games, and now, by installing the largest stadium video screens within Europe, adds another. All of us at Daktronics can’t wait to see the screens turned on and engaging with the fans.”
Each display will measure 8 metres high by 26.7 metres wide to provide more than 420 square metres of displays space combined. Each display will feature a 15HD pixel layout for excellent image clarity and contrast with wide viewing angles ensuring a great view from any seat in the stadium. The displays feature variable content zoning allowing them to show one large image or multiple separate zones to show any variety of live video, instant replays, scores and statistics, graphics and animations, and sponsor messages.
