Irvine, CA -- (SBWire) -- 06/04/2014 --Lighthouse and TS Sports have installed three LED displays at Southwest University Park, fantastic new home of the El Paso Chihuahuas, AAA affiliate of the San Diego Padres.
The main LED display, positioned over the center field wall with beautiful downtown El Paso in the background, is Lighthouse’s revolutionary Greenline series HD10. The HD10 is environmentally friendly – RoHS compliant – and has a dramatically reduced carbon footprint over conventional panels. In addition, the Greenline HD10 delivers spectacular brightness with an ultra-high contrast ratio, producing excellent image resolution and uniformity, plus crowd-pleasing viewing angles.
Southwest University Park’s main LED video display measures 28' high by 59' wide, and boasts a visual resolution of 10mm. During the game, it fills the brand new stadium with colorful animations, sponsor messages, Chihuahuas replays and player introductions, and custom video.
The first and third base auxiliary LED screens, built from Lighthouse 20mm LED video panels, are 59' wide and just over three feet high. They augment and coordinate with the main LED display’s content, completing the system and keeping El Paso baseball fans informed of scores and statistics around the Pacific Coast League.
“Lighthouse is excited to be a part of El Paso’s new ballpark,” says Ed Whitaker, General Manager of Lighthouse Technologies – The Americas. “Our division of Lighthouse focuses on minor league baseball, and Southwest University Park is an exceptional example of that commitment.”
Southwest University Park is a new $74 million state-of-the-art facility located in the center of downtown El Paso. It boasts 23 Luxury Suites, two event buildings, exclusive club seating, and a kids’ zone.
Lighthouse’s LED displays fire up Chihuahuas fans, and complete the cutting-edge feel so important in a new ballpark. Lighthouse’s HD10 main LED display and 20mm auxiliary displays present real-time statistics, sponsor messages, and crowd-wowing animations, features that allow the El Paso technical crew to present nostalgic summertime baseball with high-tech media.
“Working with TS Sports in El Paso,” Ed Whitaker adds, “enabled us to be a part of the excitement of the El Paso Chihuahuas’ inaugural season. It’s a top notch stadium with the best in LED technology.”
