Harris Install Amway Center Photo
Gail Chiasson, North American Editor
We finally got a photo of the multi-million dollar new Amway Center, a project of the Orlando Magic and City of Orlando whose 1,100 digital screens are managed by Harris Corporation, an international communications and information technology company. The Amway Center is being touted as the most technologically advanced arena facility in North America.
Opened Oct. 1 and the home of the Orlando Heat basketball team, the venue also hosts concerts and family entertainment.
It also has the tallest, high-definition videoboard in an NBA venue, the centre-hung video scoreboard by Daktronics includes more than 9 million individual LEDs used in 18 displays.

Daktronics was heavily involved with project, and provided all the LED-based displays, including those shown in the photo, as well as the display controllers and monitors (shown) that operate the LED displays.
