To deliver a curved LED video wall for Syracuse University's Schine Student Center, Daktronics, a video display manufacturer, partnered with Diversified, a technology solutions provider, to design, manufacture and install the school's new media wall for the 2021 spring semester, according to a press release.

"As the centerpiece of the newly renovated Schine Student Center, the video wall allows us to build community through shared experiences such as campus programming and athletic events," Christine Scollay, interim director of Syracuse University's Student Centers and Programming Services, said in the release. "The video board has helped us create a fresh and relevant space for students."

The narrow pixel pitch LED video wall measures approximately 12.5 feet high by 14 feet wide and features 1.5-millimeter pixel spacing to deliver high-resolution imagery to students and other audiences inside the Schine Student Center. It curves to align with the architecture of the building and floor layout.

"Diversified has a longstanding relationship with Daktronics and a history of delivering larger-than-life displays that immerse audiences in exciting content," Tom Spearman, executive vice president of Diversified, said in the release. "From connecting fans to the big game to engaging students in everyday campus life, solutions such as this video wall at Syracuse are taking the college experience to a whole new level."

The display will be used to show live feeds of sporting events as well as sports television and Syracuse-specific programming. It can be used to host esports events and a variety of content including live and recorded video, graphics and animations, sponsorship content, and screen sharing for special events.

"This project is a perfect example of how Daktronics can collaborate with AV integrators, such as our great partners at Diversified, to deliver a masterpiece for our customers," Scott Willson, Daktronics sales representative, said in the release. "To deliver on Syracuse's timeline and desired design, we worked closely with Diversified and the result is nothing short of stunning. We're thrilled with the outcome and look forward to seeing the university using their new video wall for their many events."

Diversified, founded in 1993, is based in Kenilworth, New Jersey. Founded in 1968, Daktronics is headquartered in Brookings, South Dakota.
