Communicating with athletes and guests at your athletic facilities has become more than standard messages and directions around the venue. Today, it’s about delivering a connected experience along with that communication, but in a way that keeps everyone engaged and looking for that experience again.
That’s why Daktronics LED audiovisual solutions were developed for use everywhere in and around your venue, including the following:
Indoor and outdoor main video boards and scoreboards
Stadiums and arenas
Practice venues
Team headquarters
Separate athletic facilities & adjacent areas

Video Displays
The use of LED video displays has evolved beyond the single “jumbotron” at a sporting venue. More teams and organizations are using video boards and LED video walls throughout their stadiums and arenas in different ways, including incorporating them into training and practice facilities, offering a few additional perspectives.
Team Perspective: LED displays help with the coaching process or simulate in-game scenarios during practice sessions.
Organizational Perspective: The business side can realize additional ROI through new advertising opportunities.
Community Perspective: Venues can now host special events in these spaces, such as watch parties, movie nights or high school games.

Scoring System
Integrated into the video system, Daktronics offers standard scoreboards, play clocks, shot clocks, segment timers and locker room clocks. Put it all together and you’re ready to run a productive practice and replicate in-game situations.


Control System
Control your entire integrated system with the Daktronics Show Control system. Bringing together fan engagement and production efficiency is in our DNA. With several decades of providing innovative solutions for live events entertainment, our Show Control solution provides a powerful, easy-to-use system designed to meet your needs now and grow with you in the future.


Concourse & Lobby
The tighter pixel pitch of LED technology allows for much better up-close viewing, giving way to additional spaces around venues. Teams can now activate concourses and lobbies by creating a more luxurious feel with large welcome displays. Immerse your athletes and fans in team pride immediately when they walk in the door.


Private Spaces & Clubs
Colleges and universities are capitalizing on video boards in these spaces to highlight alumni and donors as well as host community events. This allows additional connection between team, athlete and fan. Private events can leverage the flexibility of the technology to show presentations and videos.


Hall of Honor
Bring your celebrated areas to life! Relive and replay your historic team accomplishments for all to see with LED video walls featuring high-resolution narrow pixel pitch products. Celebrate and show your storied history to build pride in your program.


Film Room
High-definition LED video walls in film rooms offer crystal-clear imagery as coaches show players game or practice tape, footage of upcoming opponents, or any other game-planning visuals. It increases clarity over projector options and creates an enticing place for athletes to be.


Weight Room
This is one of the newer trends in LED video wall installations, and it leans heavily on athlete motivation. Showing pump-up videos or workout data while they are lifting can help them safely reach personal bests. You can also show proper lifting form, team promotions, live broadcasts or anything else to fit the mood of the daily lift.

Locker Room & Lounge
The new advantage in recruiting keeps your team informed when they’re off the play surface and back in the locker room. Bringing these high-resolution LED video boards into these areas helps keep your athletes relaxed with TV broadcasts or building team chemistry by using displays for gaming opportunities.


Draft Room
When trying to get a clear view of the future of your franchise, start with a clear view in your draft room. Bringing high-definition to all the pertinent information needed for your decision-making process ensures you’re ready to make the right pick.

Meeting Room
Drive team alignment from the meeting room by engaging your coaches, players or student-athletes with crisp visuals on a high-resolution LED video display. Present clear information to guide your organization or provide a boost to your business activities.
