BROOKINGS, S.D. – Feb. 9, 2015 – Daktronics (NASDAQ-DAKT) of Brookings, South Dakota, was chosen to partner with the Oakland Athletics for their new LED video display system at O.co Coliseum in Oakland, California. A total of four new LED displays will be installed including two premier outfield video displays featuring 13HD technology, the premier outdoor solution with the brightness to cut through direct sunlight while providing crisp, clear imagery.

 

“These new Daktronics LED video boards will elevate the O.co Coliseum fan experience to a whole new level,” said Ken Pries, Oakland Athletics vice president of communications and broadcasting. “With Daktronics’ superior customer service and technical expertise, the entire process has been seamless. Our fans are going to be blown away on Opening Night and the final product.”

 

Featuring a 13HD pixel layout, the two main video displays will each measure 36 feet high by 145 feet wide and incorporate multiple levels of protection from the outdoor elements.

These displays will be located on the seating fascia along the first and third baselines of the stadium and can be used to highlight sponsors and provide additional statistical information throughout each event.
