Vast stadium gets equally expansive LED boards
Michigan Stadium is the largest sports arena in the USA, which is saying something, given the sporting obsession which enthralls many millions of its citizens.
Now a new pair of large scale LED displays which are fit for such a significant space have been installed by Lighthouse Technologies.
The firm is so confident in the capabilities of its LED board technology, which will replace the scoreboards and also show full motion replays and ads, that it is claiming any visiting teams will be intimidated by the sheer size and consistent branding that supports the home side.
Both of the LED displays measure 26 metres across and 14 metres high, facing one another from opposite ends of the ground.
The manufacturer believes that the fans who visit the stadium will get a lot out of these two LED boards as they give them the chance to see the action up-close, even if they are sitting in seats right up at the back of the arena.
The displays will be used to showcase a variety of content, from information and ads prior to the game to live coverage and a constant presence that will be team branding.
Michigan Stadium is affiliated with the nearby university and can be found in Ann Arbor. It can hold the largest number of people in the whole of the country, with a capacity that approaches 110,000, making it the third largest venue of its kind on the entire planet.
Truly impressive LED displays are needed to do this arena justice and it looks like Michigan Stadium has got just that. The high brightness, resolution and legibility of the boards will make it easy for fans to know exactly what is going on at all times and the sheer size will make them visible from most seats.
I would recommend LED Synergy to anyone considering purchasing an LED sign. We have had so many compliments since it was installed and it has been a valuable asset.
