The first true 1080p HD video screen in an NBA or NHL facility, Lighthouse's American Airlines Centre installation in Dallas features a 1080x1920 high definition video screen and includes 25 individual Lighthouse screens for superior impact and visibility.
"Lighthouse is excited to play such a large role in the NBA's showcase event," said Ed Whitaker, Lighthouse N.A.S.A director of sales. "Our LED video technology and experience enhance the NBA's inherent drama and excitement."
The action at the American Airlines Centre begins Friday night with T-Mobile's Rookie Challenge & Youth Jam, and concludes Saturday night with the Sprite Slam Dunk, a grand stage for the game's most popular players. Lighthouse's centre-hung display includes four Lighthouse P4 4mm screens, four P10 10mm scoring screens and two F16 16mm rings that deliver spectacular instant replays of every dunk, real-time statistical and scoring information, and dynamic advertising content in vivid colour and detail.
"The American Airlines Centre is one of the busiest multi-purpose facilities in the world," Whitaker said. "It hosts the Dallas Mavericks and Dallas Stars, as well as concerts and events. Lighthouse's LED video installation boosts the centre's atmosphere and contributes to every attendee's experience."
