Ross Video Sets Global Benchmark for Fan Engagement and Game Day Experience

December 8, 2017 – OTTAWA – Ross Video is a force to be reckoned with in the game day sports venue production space, powering many of the major sports franchise facilities around the world, including 58% of NFL venues in the US, and 45% of combined US venues for MLB, NBA, NFL, NHL and MLS. Two recent projects that highlight Ross Video’s technical ability to consistently delight fans include the impressive “Halo Board” display at Mercedes-Benz Stadium (MBS) – home of the the Atlanta Falcons and United FC – and the game-day graphics and ribbon boards used at the Adelaide Oval in Australia.

With a dedicated cross-functional sports venue team led by Kevin Cottam, Ross’ Global Director for Sports Venue Solutions, a broad product portfolio from venue control systems to social media management, and a “who’s who of sports” client list, Ross has a proven and unparalleled track record to consistently exceed the demands and innovation required for success in this market.

Partnering with MBS and the Falcons production team to develop a control system capable of driving the innovative Halo Board, which measures 1,100’ wide by 58’ high, displaying stunning graphics with an astounding 21512 by 1152 pixel resolution is great example of our technical ability dedication to this market  as many of our recent products have been conceived with the sports venue market in mind”, stated Cottam. “Outside of North America, we’ve also partnered with Croke Park in Dublin, Ireland, the Adelaide Oval in Australia and several of the world’s leading soccer brands; we’re helping stadia, sports teams and rights holders across the globe to deliver the most compelling content for fans and supporters”.
