Panasonic (News - Alert) Enterprise Solutions Company recently upgraded the Angel Stadium of Anaheim, Calif. with its latest Panasonic display technologies to further enhance the fan experience.

 

The Los Angeles Angels had captured their third straight American League Western division title with more than just impressive performance on the field. Panasonic’s team of experienced engineers and solution consultants had worked with Angels’ executive and facility management to devise an upgrade plan to implement and deliver a new audio visual experience.

 

Most of the installations took place during the 2009 season without disrupting to fans viewing enjoyment. Totally 350 Panasonic HD plasma and LCD displays were installed to provide fans with amazing views of games as well as promotional messaging throughout the ballpark. A state-of-the-art 20mm large screen LED board, measuring 35 feet by 47 feet has also been included in the display system to deliver breathtaking images on the team’s symbolic Big A message board which is placed adjacent to the 57 Freeway that has an annual traffic count of over 84 million cars that pass by.

In addition to all this Panasonic is the technology provider for AEG’s entertainment and sports complexes around the world including the award winning L.A.
