Overview

  • Workers are finalizing the mounting and connecting of the scoreboard’s power and data systems at the Heinz-Steyer-Stadion now that it has been lifted into position.
  • A morning installation attempt was halted when wind gusts reached 45 km/h, causing the 84 m² board to sway dangerously.
  • The high-tech display spans 84 square meters, delivers 10,000 candela brightness and uses energy-saving technology, with a €250,000 price tag.
  • Sportbürgermeister Jan Donhauser monitored the operation onsite and cited wind as the main obstacle to completing the project.
  • The digital screen is expected to debut during events such as the Goldenes Oval athletics meet to boost spectator experience.
