Citizens Business Bank Arena taps Daktronics

The
new Citizens Business Bank Arena, located in
Ontario, Calif.,
has hired Daktronics to design and manufacture an integrated LED video and
scoring system, installed in time for its opening in the fall of 2008. The main
display will be a four-sided centerhung display measuring 21-feet wide by
17-feet high on each side.

The centerhung display will incorporate four large LED video
displays, approximately 16 feet wide by nine feet high with pixels on 12
millimeter spacing. Eight additional Daktronics full-color digital LED displays
will be positioned on the centerhung display to offer additional flexibility in
displaying scoring, sponsor messages and cheer graphics.

A second full-color, digital LED display will be installed along the fascia of
the stadium, measuring approximately four feet high by 670 feet wide.
Daktronics ProAd digital displays use RGB LED technology to present images and
information with wide-angle visibility, incredible brightness and offer
complete message flexibility. When not showing exciting graphics, animation,
stats, or out-of-town game scores, advertisers are highlighted with a wide
variety of visuals and messages.

Additional Daktronics equipment for the facility include a 25-foot wide by
20-foot high outdoor marquee video display, basketball shot clocks, locker room
game clocks and ticket window displays.
Citizens Business Bank Arena will host the Los Angeles
Lakers against the Seattle SuperSonics in a NBA preseason game on October 24,
2008. Citizens Business Bank Arena
will also be the home to an ECHL and NBADL franchises.
