With a center hung HD scoreboard extending from the 25 yard line to the 25 yard line, there won'st be a bad seat in the house when the Dallas Cowboys open their new stadium later this year in Arlington, Texas.
Burst, a Denver-based systems integrator with a well-established Dallas office, was selected to design and install the video system that feeds the HD video boards. When this super-sized
project is complete, fans throughout the stadium will be able view crisp, clear images of all the action no matter where they are seated.
The center hung 4-board cluster features two 160 foot long by 72 foot high boards for sideline view and two additional 53 foot long by 30 foot high boards serving the end zones. The
assembly, the largest in the world, will hang 90 feet above the field, and is the largest center hung video board in a US stadium.
The HD video system spans three control rooms and features a Sony MVS-8000G production switcher, 16 cameras, Chyron and Click Effects graphics, EVS replay, Evertz terminal and multi-image
display systems, an extensive fiber optics infrastructure, Reidel Intercom, and TBC consoles.
Burst is pleased to provide our expertise to this cutting edge project, and we look forward to meeting the Dallas Cowboys unique requirements. Per Jerry Jones, owner, president, and
general manager of the Dallas Cowboys, the display will meet the viewing standards of a 60 inch high definition television at home. The system will set the standard by which other
professional stadiums and arenas are judged for some time to come, said Robin Heywood, VP Burst.
