Knowledge Base: Mitsubishi Buyer's Guide

TOKYO--Mitsubishi Electric Corporation announced today it has completed the installation of a 9 m by 5 m Diamond Vision large-scale display system at Marine Messe Fukuoka, a versatile facility used for many different types of events located in Fukuoka, Japan. Commissioned by the Fukuoka City government, the installation is worth approximately 300 million yen.

The screen incorporates the latest high definition digital screen controllers and high luminance light-emitting diodes (LEDs) aligned in a 6 mm pixel pitch. The new screen replaces the facility's current, main CRT display, also built and installed by Mitsubishi Electric Corporation in 1995. The company's Arena Easy-to-use Operator Console feature allows facility operators to easily display video content extracted from a PC or handycam. Mitsubishi Electric Corporation completed the installation of the system, including the new screen, video equipment system and live cameras, at the end of January 2011.

Marine Messe Fukuoka, operated by the Foundation of Fukuoka Convention Center, opened in 1995. The versatile facility is used for exhibitions, athletic functions, conferences and concerts. Mitsubishi Electric has recently installed numerous other Diamond Vision displays worldwide, which include the following:

• 800-inch display at Hiratsuka Stadium in November 2010
