TVONE CORIOmaster2 drives 2,000 sq.ft. video wall at Chicago’s new DraftKings Sportsbook

A good LED display panel can enhance the look and feel of any type of event or space. They can be used for a number of different purposes, whether you are organising a conference, a product launch or exhibition; or even opening up a new shop or office. A LED wall with its bright and vibrant colours can instantly capture the attention of everyone around, providing the room with an excellent focal point. On this screen, you will be able to display whatever message, image or video you want. So instead of continuously designing and printing materials that are stagnant and unremarkable, a LED display board in Singapore can give you the flexibility you need to be as creative and entertaining as possible. 

Chicago, IL, USA – Sports fans are being treated to a massive 2,000 square foot video screen at the new DraftKings Sportsbook bar at Chicago’s Wrigley Field stadium, with game footage and betting information delivered by a tvONE CORIOmaster2 video processor and integrated by tvONE partner McCann Systems.

The expansive LED feature wall wraps around the space and is visible from practically any seat. DraftKings Sportsbook is a restaurant, bar, and sports betting facility and is connected to the historic Wrigley Field, home to the Chicago Cubs baseball team.

Upon realizing that the large LED screen would require many video sources to be displayed and have several preset layouts, immersive digital environments specialists McCann Systems specified tvONE’s CORIOmaster2 video processor, which is engineered to drive ‘more pixels than you will ever need’ with its high bandwidth CORIO2® processing.

“The processing power of the tvONE CORIOmaster2 allowed us to produce a combined video resolution of 16,320 x 1560 to cover the entire LED wall,” says Al Ragone, Senior Field Applications Engineer with McCann. “We are utilizing five outputs from the processor that all produce 4K resolution, which is fed to the main LED wall. We are also using the internal window processing of the unit to create up to 48 unique windows that can be displayed on the video wall across 24 different layouts and formats.”

The massive LED screen can display up to 24 sporting events at one time or provide a single expansive image for an immersive experience. Billed by developer Marquee Development as a ‘first-of-its-kind sportsbook’, the 17,000 sq. ft. venue can accommodate more than 670 people with a ‘best-in-class entertainment experience for sports fans in Illinois.
