BROOKINGS, S.D. – Norfolk State University in Norfolk, Va., has chosen Daktronics Inc. (Nasdaq-DAKT) of Brookings, S.D., to design, manufacture and install a new, integrated LED video display system at William "Dick" Price Stadium. Installation is scheduled for later this year with first use at a Spartan home football game in fall of 2012.

“These new displays will make a big impact in our football stadium,” Director of Athletics Marty Miller said. “The technology is outstanding. Daktronics is the leader in this industry, and we’re looking forward to seeing the displays in action next season. The new system will open new avenues for sponsorships and increase revenue for the athletics department.”

On the west side of the football field, a new video display measuring more than 17 feet high by 47 feet wide will be installed. This display, which will feature Daktronics 15HD technology, will incorporate excellent clarity and contrast of images, multiple levels of protection from the elements and a more robust cabinet design with an improved ventilation system. It is capable of showing one large image, highlighting live video and instant replays. It can also be divided into separate windows to show a variety of vivid graphics, colorful animations, up-to-the-minutes statistics, scoring information and sponsor advertisements with outstanding brightness and wide-angle visibility.
