Daktronics Bringing New Light to Crypto.com Arena Events
October 06 2022 - 11:29AM
Daktronics (NASDAQ-DAKT) of Brookings, South Dakota, were selected
to manufacture and install all new end wall video displays and more
than 3,000 linear feet of ribbon displays at Crypto.com Arena in
Los Angeles, California. The project was installed over the summer
months during the arena’s first phase of renovations and will be
used to entertain fans, show statistics, run promotions and
sponsorship inventory during Los Angeles Lakers, LA Kings, Los
Angeles Clippers and Los Angeles Sparks games starting this season.
"We are incredibly excited to be working with Daktronics and
upgrading our LED displays throughout the arena and truly elevating
the fans’ experience with three levels of LED ribbon boards and two
large end wall video displays,” said Lee Zeidman, President,
Crypto.com Arena, Microsoft Theater and L.A. LIVE.
To bring new light to each end of the arena, new LED end wall
video displays have been installed. Each display features
5.9-millimeter pixel spacing and measures approximately 21 feet
high by 65.5 feet wide. Each display is capable of variable content
zoning allowing each to show one large image or to be divided into
multiple zones to show any combination of live video, instant
replays, statistics, graphics, animations and sponsorship
messages.
Three new ribbon displays have been installed inside Crypto.com
Arena, approximately triple the amount of linear feet of ribbon
displays than the venue had previously. Each ribbon display has
been installed along different levels of the seating fascia to
bring additional game information and graphics to provide a fully
immersive entertainment experience for event attendees. Each ribbon
features 5.9-millimeter pixel spacing and measures approximately
2.5 feet high with the lower level ribbon measuring 894 feet wide,
the mid-level ribbon measuring 1,076 feet wide and the upper level
ribbon measuring 1,093 feet wide.
“We’re continually building and delivering LED solutions for the
largest event venues in the world, and this project coming together
at Crypto.com Arena highlights the work we strive for on a daily
basis,” said Daktronics Vice President of Live Events Jay Parker.
“We’re excited to partner with the venue and their project teams to
make their live event experience something special for fans and
audiences in Los Angeles.”
