Vesileppis, Leppävirta Ice Hall – We supplied a striking new digital scoreboard, a special feature of which is the ability to display the score information for two games simultaneously. This feature, particularly suitable for junior games, simplifies the work of officials and helps keep everyone updated on matches being played on multiple rinks. At the same time, the advertising area at the centre of the scoreboard can be used to communicate to ice hall spectators about other services at the spa centre and current campaigns – this maximises the directing of customers to the facilities of the Sport & Spa Hotel Vesileppis within the busy 400-seat ice hall.
Versatile use – from hobbyists to the professional racing scene
In tournament-style matches, the scoreboard can display a variety of information, including match schedules, dining, accommodation, and not forgetting the awarding of winners. Player introductions made before the match, for example, can be repeated on the screen. Advertisements can also be removed entirely if desired, if the score information takes up too much of the small players' attention.
When the home team scores, the goal song can be combined with a modern goal video that plays beautifully full-screen. Each team can bring their own materials to home games, creating an even better atmosphere in the arena when a goal is scored. Best of all, the Leppävirta ice rink gets to enjoy a modern scoreboard for everyone from the youngest juniors to the senior teams, and from amateur leagues to professionals.
With technology being so modern, the audience is entertained too
Technically, the digital scoreboard was placed in the best viewing position for the players, referees, and especially the spectators. In a game with flying pucks, the scoreboard, protected by strong and highly transparent Plexiglas, will not be disturbed.
Positive feedback has also been received from users regarding the use of the system.”It looks good, at least the first taste does”and Jidoka's service regarding suggestions for development related to the scoreboard and updates.
