A new world of watching baseball games

The world’s largest electronic display board in Incheon SK Happy Dream Park was completed with Samsung SMART LED Signage.

They can experience various “Sportainement” services like getting information about the game, players, stadium and joining events or games. A world in which information and communication technologies are applied to baseball games. Now, spectators can enjoy baseball with vivid pictures through SMART LED Signage.

Plus, the thermal structure has been strengthened and the cabinet with a special design has also been applied. Its strong durability allow for the use of the product for seven days in a row and up to 100,000 hours.
