The new Dallas Cowboys stadium has been unveiled to the public and includes the installation of a $40m Diamond Vision LED screen, supplied by Mitsubishi Electric. The screen is, the owners claim, the world’s largest HD LED video display.
The four-sided, centre-hung structure – a first for an NFL stadium – consists of four Diamond Vision video displays, with the two main sideline displays measuring 22m high by 49m wide, and the two end-zone displays measuring 9×15.5m wide. Weighing 544 tonnes, the screens are suspended 27.5m directly over the centre of the playing surface and stretch from nearly one 20-yard line to the other.
Completing the selection of Diamond Vision displays are four, 26m2 screens on the lower concourse; an upper level fascia (ribbon) display measuring 1.2m high by approximately 610m; and two Dallas Cowboys Ring of Honor displays totalling more than 269m2.
In addition to the Diamond Vision displays, Mitsubishi Electric is also providing a fully integrated scoring system, content management and playback system, game timers, delay of game clocks, locker room clocks and ticket window displays. The new Cowboys Stadium’s Mitsubishi Electric Diamond Vision LEDerAd ribbon LED boards will be powered by ANC Sports Enterprises VisionSOFT operating system. Additionally, ANC Design, a division of ANC Sports will create LED animations, graphics, advertisements and statistical templates for the LED fascia system for the 2009 NFL season.
