Arizona Diamondbacks to install largest screen in Arizona, manufactured by Daktronics

Daktronics partners with Arizona Diamondbacks to design, manufacture and install the largest LED video screen in Arizona and three ribbons at Chase Field in Phoenix (Arizona, EE. UU.). The central screen will have a total of almost 900 square meters of surface, which represents an increase in 52 % compared to the previous Daktronics display and places it among the ten largest in Major League Baseball.

With this project, Phoenix's Chase Field stadium will feature more than 2000 square meters of digital signage, with a total of 16,9 Millions of pixels available to the Diamondbacks to entertain and inform their fans.

Derrick Hall, president, CEO and general partner of the D-backs, recognizes that “our goal is always to make Chase Field one of the most exciting places in baseball to watch a game.”. Daktronics has brought incredible experience and innovation to this project, helping us deliver a world-class scoreboard and sideline display system that will transform the way fans experience the game at Chase Field. These new screens represent an innovative step forward, which adds to recent lighting and audio improvements, as we continue to improve the stadium for our fans”.

The new main video screen will measure 19 meters high by 46 meters wide. It has a pixel spacing 10 millimeters to deliver excellent image clarity and contrast to fans in the stadium stands. Features variable content zoning to display one big image or multiple zones of content that baseball fans expect at every game, including live video, up-to-the-minute statistics, graphics and animations, and messages from sponsors.

“Every moment in the stadium is an opportunity to create memories, "and we are honored to help the Diamondbacks make those moments even more unforgettable.", highlights Jay Parker, Vice President of Live Events and Performances at Daktronics. “These new screens will bring fans closer to the action, They will amplify the emotion and turn each play into a shared experience. For decades, The Diamondbacks have trusted Daktronics to provide technology that works when it matters most, and that trust is what makes projects like this so special”.

Daktronics has also deployed three ribbons with a height of 1 meter and a pixep pitch 10 mm. The main screen measures 348 meters long, while the second reaches 300 meters and a smaller third measures 71 metros. Finally, It should be noted that Daktronics has currently integrated LED systems in more than 50 % of all professional sports facilities in the United States and Canada.
