Miller Park to Receive High Definition LED Video Display

                                                                                                                        Artist's Conceptual

Main Video Display

• Video screen will be one of only three 1080-line HD resolution screens in Major League Baseball and the largest of the three (Yankees and Twins are the others).
• Resolution will be 1080 pixels high by 2184 pixels wide (pixels = individual picture elements).
• Approximate dimensions of the HD display are 54 feet high by 110 feet wide
• 5,940 sq. feet of active area will make it the third largest in Major League Baseball and one of the largest HD LED displays in the world.
• The new video display will have nearly 18 times the resolution (in terms of number of pixels) of the existing display.
• Physically, the new video display will be nearly 5 times larger than the existing video display.
• It would take approximately 1,500 37” diagonal flat panel televisions to fill the area of the new LED video display.
• In comparison to “consumer” televisions, this display would be called out as a 1,470” (diagonal) screen.
• Approximately 24,000 feet of wiring (4.6 miles) will deliver power and data within the large video display.
• Video display will weigh approximately 74,000 lbs. (37 tons) not including static signage or structure.
• Daktronics HD-15 technology uses state of the art LED (light emitting diode) technology, providing superior brightness in direct sunlight, with the capability to show up to 4.4 trillion shades of color.
• Lines of full-color red, green and blue LED pixels are on 15 mm spacing (.6”) spacing.
• Super-wide viewing angles offer improved visibility for more fans.
• Viewing angles exceed 160 degrees horizontal (greater than 80 degrees on each side off center).

"When you factor in the overall size and resolution of the new display, we believe this will be the finest video board in Major League Baseball. This is going to be a spectacular addition to the fan experience at Miller Park in 2011 and beyond. Quite simply, the difference in quality and scope from what we currently have at Miller Park will be staggering."
