Daktronics to Supply Display System for Carolina Panthers’ Bank of America Stadium
March 19, 2014
National Football League franchise Carolina Panthers has announced a partnership with Daktronics for the elctronics company to to design, manufacture and install an integrated display system at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, N.C.
It will feature two 360-degree ribbon displays — a unique aspect to professional outdoor stadiums.
Each end zone will feature a new LED video display measuring nearly 11,000 square feet to bring a larger view of the larger-than-life star players of the Panthers at every home game.
“We are very excited to be partnering with Daktronics on the installation of two new video screens and two new 360-degree ribbon boards at Bank of America Stadium,” said Danny Morrison, President of the Carolina Panthers. “These installations allow us to continue an 18-year relationship with Daktronics that began when Bank of America Stadium opened in 1996, and we know that our fans and sponsors will greatly enjoy the new look and feel of our stadium on game day as a result of this tremendous visual upgrade. Combined with a new fully distributed sound system, these new displays will help take our classic American stadium to the next level.”
Both main video displays will feature a 13HD pixel layout and measure 56 feet high by 199 feet wide. With multiple levels of protection from the outdoor elements, the displays will incorporate the very best in image clarity and contrast with wide viewing angles to ensure every seat can enjoy the content that is shown.
The displays are capable of meeting every expectation by showing one large video highlight or instant replay while also capable of being divided into multiple sections to show a variety of game animations, graphics, statistics, scoring information and sponsor advertisements.
“We’re excited to continue our partnership with the Carolina Panthers and Bank of America Stadium by installing this new LED super system,” said Reece Kurtenbach, CEO, Daktronics. “The new video displays and double 360-degree ribbon displays will provide the team and their fans with an elevated game-day experience. This is true testament to Daktronics ability to provide high-quality LED video systems for the highest level of professional sports.”
