CubeX Video, a leading supplier of
turnkey video wall solutions, has provided a 3x3 HD LCD video
wall for the newly renovated Memorial Stadium at the University
of Illinois in Champaign. The university's football program
uses the video wall, installed in the recruiting lounge at
the stadium's north end, to show student-athletes football
highlights, information about the facilities and academic
offerings available at the university, and live video from
football games around the NCAA.
"Our new recruiting lounge is like a resume for Illinois
football," said Adrian Melendez, director of football
operations at the University of Illinois. "While many
of the historical displays on the walls will stay the same,
we use the CubeX video wall to provide updated football highlights
and current information about the university. The CubeX video
wall represents a significant improvement over our old projector
system, making it easy for us to go from full-screen to multiscreen
format and giving us the flexibility to display multiple visual
elements at once."
Memorial Stadium represents a long and distinguished tradition
of football at the University of Illinois, and multimillion-dollar
renovations completed in 2008 build on that tradition while
providing the program and its players with the advanced technologies
that have become a part of the game.
As a recruiting tool for the Fighting Illini football program,
the CubeX video wall is an attractive turnkey solution for
versatile display of highlights video, game footage, graphics,
school logos, live television feeds, and PowerPoint® presentations.
The video wall accepts up to six SD or HD (1920x1080) inputs
and is currently fed by three HD cable receivers, a Blu-ray
player, and two computers with DVI outputs.
The nine 46-inch LCD screens that make up the 3x3 CubeX video
wall feature perfect 178-degree viewing angles and are uniformly
brightness- and color-calibrated to ensure perfect panel-to-panel
color matching. An ultra-thin half-inch bezel on each panel
further enhances the impact of dynamic HD video displayed
over multiple panels or the entire video wall. The integrated
video wall processing system simplifies control and configuration
— supporting multiple presets for different layouts and
sources — while providing valuable functionality such
as automatic gap compensation when needed.
