 ASIAN GAMES CEREMONY DISPLAY

Element Labs, Inc., an industry leader in LED video technology, was contracted by Doha Asian Games Organising Committee (DAGOC) to created the largest custom LED screen ever used for a live event. Especially designed for the opening and closing ceremonies of the 15th Asian Games in Doha, Qatar, the exterior Versa® RAY screen made its debut during the Opening Ceremony on December 1, 2006 at Khalifa Stadium.
The massive size of the display—covering over 4,500 square meters, or 45,000 square feet—allowed it to be used in ways previously unachievable. It was both an integral element of the show on the field as well as an informative display during the Parade of Athletes. Hours of rich, beautiful content were created specifically for the Ceremonies to dazzle the audience and make the event unlike anything seen before.

In keeping with the circular structure of the stadium, the screen was designed to be curved. The entire screen is 165 meters wide along the curve, reaching 39 meters at its highest point. The screen is comprised of 20,000 individual Versa RAYs, which laid end to end would span 58 kilometers (over 36 miles). 762,000 individual LEDs were used, with a pixel pitch of 77 millimeters.
