“We’re grateful for our continued partnership with Daktronics, and we’re excited about the recent enhancements that have been made to the Sun Bowl video board,” UTEP VP and director of athletics Jim Senter said. “This comes at an opportune time as we launch a thrilling new era in the Mountain West Conference and are introducing numerous initiatives designed to improve the fan experience.”
While the physical display dimensions remain the same at 33.5x60 feet, the resolution improves with a new 10mm pixel spacing compared to the previous 15HD pixel layout. This brings 50% more LEDs spaced closer together, creating 4.5 times the resolution to deliver greater image clarity and contrast to Miners fans.
“Daktronics is honored to assist in upgrading the game-day experience at the Sun Bowl, one of college football's most unique stadiums,” said Daktronics sales representative Charlie Durrenberger. “It was great to work with the university and its fine staff on this project from the early stages through to completion.”
The display is capable of variable content zoning so it can show one large image or multiple zones of content to meet the needs of UTEP Athletics at every event. This includes any mix of video, replays, statistics and game information, graphics and animations, and sponsorship messages.
