Jidoka installed a new advertising screen for Medialiiga in Konala, Helsinki, on the wall of a GoWash car wash, replacing the old screen solution. Medialiiga's old screen needed an update, so it was replaced with a more precise LED screen, which offers even better visibility for advertising content.
The new LED screen ensures good visibility from afar, and thanks to the screen's brightness, content stands out effectively at all times of the day. The modern screen enables high-quality and eye-catching outdoor advertising in a busy urban environment.
The screen's location is excellent, as many different businesses operate in its vicinity and the Ristikko shopping centre is located right next door. Additionally, the screen is also near a busy intersection, which guarantees high visibility for both motorists and other passers-by.
Konalan's new screen brings a modern and highly visible media surface to the area, which naturally blends into the bustling city environment. The site offers advertisers the opportunity to reach a large number of daily passers-by effectively and in a visually striking way. With the refurbishment, Medialiiga's visibility in Konala has risen to a new level, and at the same time, the area has gained an even higher quality outdoor advertising solution.

Helsinki Ice Hall Scoreboard System
Media cube results board system, 17 changing room screens, buzzers, WiseHockey and MTV3 Katsomo integrations.
The Helsinki Ice Hall, more commonly known as Nordis, HIFK's The Kotiluola is one of Finland's most famous multi-purpose arenas. With a capacity of up to 8,200 spectators, it creates an environment for top-level SM-liiga for matches, concerts, and other public events. The system project implemented in 2025 brought the arena's technology into a new era by providing a comprehensive digital scoreboard system.
At the core of the project was the renovation of the existing scoreboard system for the display cube. The new system solution enables even more precise and flexible presentation of match data to the audience. The overall solution also included the control of an external buzzer, which was seamlessly integrated into the system, ensuring precise synchronisation of game situations.
The system also included WiseHockey yes MTV3/Katsomo – Shipping integrations. With the WiseHockey integration, the scoreboard and data are in sync with WiseHockey in real time. With MTV3 and Katsomo integration, match clock data is produced directly from the Jidoka system, ensuring that the content viewed both on-site and in home viewing situations is fully synchronised.
Internal communications within the arena were enhanced by installing 17 dressing room screens, which provide up-to-date information for teams and event organisers. This supports efficient operations during events and improves the user experience behind the scenes.
The implementation has elevated Nordenskiöld's technological foundation to a new level. The result is an even smarter arena that serves sports professionals, media operators, and the public alike.
The Tikkurila Transport Ring Arena, located in the Tikkurila Sports Park in Vantaa, has been equipped with a brand-new scoreboard system from Jidoka. The arena is a versatile ice sports centre that hosts a wide range of matches and events at various levels, including the Mestis league. The hall is home to Puck Vantaa.
The ice rink's centre-hung scoreboard was in need of an upgrade, so we delivered a scoreboarding system designed for ice hockey to the existing centre-hung scoreboard. The updated system allows for clear and real-time presentation of match data, as well as flexible content management for the needs of various events.
A WiseHockey integration has been implemented into the system, enabling real-time synchronisation of the match status and clock with WiseHockey. The match status is continuously forwarded, ensuring the data and scoreboard remain in sync. In addition, an integration for the Finnish Ice Hockey Federation (SJL) has also been brought into the system, through which match-related information, such as line-ups and player lists, can be obtained.
As an innovative addition, AI-based announcements were created, meaning the system automatically generates announcement text from events and repeats it as speech. The announcements work with SJL data so that the announcements contain the correct player information. AI-based announcements can automate part of the match event's communication and provide fast and consistent announcements.
The ice rink changing rooms also received a total of 7 changing room screens, which can be used to display game schedules and other important information for teams and officials. In addition, a separate screen was installed for the field staff, which provides a centralised view of the status of both Rink 1 and Rink 2. This makes it easy to, for example, monitor the progress of matches being played simultaneously in both rinks.

Football Scoreboard – Project Liv Arena
Main scoreboard and a small scoreboard in opposite corners and 2 x 32m perimeter displays on the long side.
In 2025, a brand-new stadium opened in the heart of Pietarsaari, Project Liv Arena.The new arena provides a magnificent setting for all sorts of sporting events as well as cultural experiences. The arena has been built to meet the requirements of top-level football and Jidoka was able to complete the arena with a striking and modern digital main football scoreboard, a smaller scoreboard, and pitchside displays.
An arena with a capacity of up to 3600 spectators required a large digital scoreboard for good visibility from all seats. The scoreboard was therefore installed in a corner of the arena, fixed to the wall, allowing for wide visibility. A smaller scoreboard was placed in the opposite corner to the main scoreboard, ensuring that the entire arena can clearly see the game situations. The scoreboards keep spectators up-to-date with the game's progress, and with the scoreboard information positioned at the edge of the screen, eye-catching sponsor advertisements and other atmosphere-enhancing media files, such as goal videos, can be displayed in the centre of the screen. The screens thus serve as a versatile media surface both during and outside of games.
The perimeter LED boards (perimeter displays) surrounding the pitch form a total continuous length of 62 metres. The high resolution makes them particularly effective for moving images and advertising content, which are clearly visible to the audience and throughout the arena. They give the stadium a modern and dynamic appearance that changes according to the situation and event. The perimeter displays can also show scoreboard information, ensuring that no one will miss the game's progress by accident.
The comprehensive display system elevates the arena's experiences to a whole new level. With them, the arena can adapt to different situations and events, creating an unforgettable experience.

The Äijänsuo Stadium, located in the Äijänsuo Sports Centre in Rauma, received a new digital football scoreboard in 2024, which significantly improves the visual appearance of events and the spectator experience. The large scoreboard ensures a clear and highly visible image, even when viewed from a distance.
The scoreboard is designed specifically for football use, serving both for real-time information during matches and for more entertaining content such as advertisements and videos. The scoreboard was positioned on the opposite side of the stands so that there is good visibility of the screen from all parts of the stands. Modern LED technology enables a bright and energy-efficient display in all weather conditions.
The renovation supports the stadium's development towards a more modern and versatile event environment. The media scoreboard not only improves the spectating experience of matches but also offers new opportunities for partners to increase their visibility.

Ylöjärvi Sports Hall and Swimming Pool, Large LED Screen
Ylöjärvi Sports Centre and Swimming Hall This summer, we switched to LED, when a striking LED screen was installed on the swimming hall side during the summer maintenance. The installation work went smoothly in a very hot and humid working environment. The screen also has to withstand tough conditions due to humidity, which is why the components have been selected to withstand continuous moisture.
A large LED screen is an excellent choice for the Ylöjärvi swimming hall, especially as a lot of natural light floods into the space through the swimming hall's spacious window wall. In this space too, a brightness sensor has been installed to optimise the screen's brightness, and thus also energy consumption, to an optimal level at all times. The screen's brightness is managed remotely; if brightness levels need to be adjusted separately, this is done by Jidoka professionals. During the dark winter months, the sensor reduces the brightness to the level of the lights on indoors. For the nighttime, the screen is timed to switch off and on according to the swimming hall's opening hours, thus saving power when the screen is on while the hall is open.
The screen enables versatile communication in the space, including for example. Ylöjärvi's sports services reported about the screen on social media: ”A new LED screen was installed in Ylöjärvi swimming hall today. The screen will show virtual gym classes as usual and also serves as an information board.” Enjoy your gym sessions and swims!

In November 2021, Jidoka installed a 24m² LED screen at Keuda House's Kerava Hall, a versatile space. The bright and sharp display is extremely adaptable thanks to its ease of disassembly and reassembly. The same cabinets can be quickly assembled into a larger screen or a series of smaller display units, entirely depending on the requirements of each event and presentation. For the same cost, instead of one large screen, they acquired a versatile LED display that enhances the overall usability of the space – whether for a concert, stage production props, or for instance, a seminar.
The new screen was immediately put to use when, the weekend after installation, the hall hosted a memorial concert for Aikka Hakala:

The complex, comprising 3 ice rinks, 2 gyms, and 2 gymnasiums, has taken significant steps towards carbon neutrality and is an important training and match venue, especially for ice hockey players. Carbon neutrality supports not only the environment but also the hobby activities of children and young people within the facilities.
The whole package at once
Jidoka supplied the new ice hall with several scoreboard screen sets, with both the smallest and largest scoreboards found next to the Ilmatar 1 ice rink. In addition to the screen surfaces, the package included Jidoka's easy-to-use control system, which is used to manage the screen content via dedicated touchscreens.
Jidoka's scoreboards have been designed from the outset to be a scoreboard system that anyone can use with a very short introduction. Our scoreboards are systematically eye-catching and versatile, and in addition to scoring, they can be used to generate additional income through advertising and display various media to the audience.
Easy-to-use and impressive scoreboard with multi-sport support
In addition to the Ilmatar Arena's scoreboards, Jidoka also supplied the management software for them. Currently, the scoreboard view is optimised for ice hockey, but ringette, volleyball, figure skating, and basketball are planned to be added to the range of supported sports in the near future. Furthermore, adding floorball, futsal, and handball is also in the pipeline.
The user can easily change both the score and clock settings. The display surfaces also allow for additional income through advertising during and outside of games. The system comes with a few default videos and sounds for different sports, but displaying your own material is also possible without any issues.
An unforgettable experience for the audience and players
The new displays at Ilmatar Areena are designed to be impressive and are capable of displaying all types of media during and outside of matches. The system's ease of use ensures that even amateur teams can upload their own player introductions and sponsor advertisements to the scoreboards during their games, as well as keep the audience informed of the game situation.

Technically, the scoreboard was placed at the best viewing angle to be seen from the stands and player boxes. This meant that separate 15″ LCD screens were installed in the officials' boxes, which clearly show the information on the scoreboard to the officials and players in the penalty box, and the information is visible at all times.

The products on offer are also advertised externally on an 81m-long wall.2 – with a P10 resolution LED display.
The massive 9,500 square metre office building also needs a large surface area to be visible to the nearby motorway. The size of the screen is well illustrated by the fact that the maintenance platforms behind the screen run the entire 7-metre length across three different floors. In the immediate vicinity is one of Pirkanmaa's busiest routes, with an average of 44,248 vehicles passing by per day (Source: Vayla.fi, 2019).

Jidoka provided a simple and fast all-in-one solution for Mantunkulma.
Next to the ski slope located in the centre of the developing Lempäälä. Approximately 31,000 vehicles per week travel in the busy area, which the entrepreneur wanted to reach as effectively as possible.
It was desired to advertise Neste Mantunkulma's services to potential customers and to display advertisements from other operators. The petrol station, situated in a prime location, was considered an ideal spot in the eyes of advertisers.
The customer had a clear vision and intention regarding the possibilities that the LED screen would bring. ”The purpose of the screen is to display our own advertisements and to sell advertising space,” concisely states Jani Seppälä, the entrepreneur of Neste Mantunkulma.
”In just a couple of years, the screen has paid for itself through advertising sales. The petrol station's location and how busy it is also interest advertisers.”
– Jani Seppälä, Entrepreneur, Neste Mantunkulma
Varying content will reach potential customers.
Collaboration with Jidoka began with the application for permits. The client received preliminary drawings and sketches of the area where the LED screen's effect would extend.
A service station located near several road routes and shops has gained significant visibility from an LED screen within the last few months. With an extremely precise P6 image resolution, it reaches motorists using the nearby road, and the screen's changing content allows for additional revenue from advertising sales. The service station's advertising screen therefore effectively reaches potential customers.
Turnkey package
The entrepreneur received positive feedback on the outdoor display from its procurement to its implementation. Jidoka handled everything from permits for the LED screen to smooth advertising launch, allowing the entrepreneur to focus on running their other business. ”We merchants are busy. The more ready-made the package I received, the easier it was,” states Seppälä.
We handle things such as permit applications and foundation work on your behalf, and if necessary, we can also assist with designing advertising materials, for example.
We installed two LED screens inside the advertising pylon, with P4 and P10 resolutions, to attract passing motorists to the car wash.
XpressWash Tortola XpressWash is a car wash chain. XpressWash Turtola's advantages include a 32-metre-long wash line, which guarantees a lightning-fast wash. The concept means that the customer doesn't need to get out of the car, and the car's pre-wash is done by hand. Visible results are created both inside the car wash and outside on the LED screen.
The surface areas of the LED displays are 5m² and 5.4m². A display with P4 resolution has been implemented on the entrance side, and P10 on the side facing the traffic. The resolution difference on different sides of the pylon is due to the difference in optimal viewing distance. On the P10 side, messages are communicated to passing cars and vehicles approaching from a distance, already from a long way off. The display on the entrance side is more precise, as customers drive right next to the display to enter the car wash, making it possible to advertise services to customers entering the car wash up close.
XpressWash Turtola is situated in an optimal location for placing LED screens. Vehicles drive past the car wash towards a commercial area, which houses the large Turtola shopping hub. People usually travel by car to shop, as the area contains several department stores, furniture shops, a shopping centre, and a vehicle inspection station, among other facilities. This allows the attention of the potential customer base to be captured by a large vertical screen.
When planning advertising, it is possible to create custom materials for the screens or use the same one on both sides. This allows for tailoring messages to different sides, to new and existing customers. Material management is easy and fast, and changing situations can be reacted to quickly with the help of an LED screen.
XpressWash received training on the content management system, along with a wealth of tips and advice on content creation, as well as considerations and points to observe when advertising.
After the display was completed, XpressWash renewed its entire washing equipment during August 2019. During that time, the LED display was used to communicate the changed situation to customers, as well as the upcoming opening of the renovated wash bay in September. In changing situations, it is easy to communicate quickly with various offers or to inform about potential faults, for example. The car wash's LED displays have now been running for several months, showing a variety of information including offers, opening hours, and special announcements.
The service station located in Häijää, Sastamala, Right, Häijää The company expanded its outdoor advertising space with a wall-mounted LED screen at the car wash. The chosen location for the P6 LED screen was the end wall of the car wash, which also offers a view of the petrol station and the shopping centre's forecourt. The advertising screen replaced a static advertising board on the wall.
The aim of the display is to inform drivers arriving at the car wash about, among other things, the different wash options available and the services at the nearby petrol station. The car wash's LED display is positioned so that as many drivers entering the yard as possible can see the message on the screen. The size of the advertising display was chosen according to the installation site and the client's objectives. The height has been optimised so that as many people as possible queuing for a wash can see the advertisements and the car wash's instructions.
At peak times, cars can queue up. During these periods, impatient drivers waiting to be washed watch instructions or advertisements on the screen. With the right message, customers can be persuaded to visit the service station, for example, to get windshield washer fluid and make use of other services.
Entrepreneur Janne Jokinen says that the procurement has brought visible benefits. Sales at the petrol station have increased since the screen was installed.
”"”The procurement's aim is to effectively reach those queuing at the laundrette and motorists turning into the shopping centre's car park.”"”
”"”The advertising screen had captured the attention of passing motorists, and on the same day, the cushions were sold out. The right message at the right time has a big impact.”"”
– Janne Jokinen, Shopkeeper
Current advertising is of interest
Being attuned to the timing is important in advertising, concerning both social media and large display surfaces. Jokinen says that there's a nice story about using LED screens from the first warm days last spring, when a large roadside screen on the side of the road showed the advertising text ”We have softies!” along with a picture of a softie. The advertising screen had caught the attention of passing drivers, and on the same day, the softies were sold out. The right message, at the right time, has a big impact. One must always be attuned to the timing, Jokinen adds.
It is important for busy petrol station operators that displays and systems function flawlessly. Sometimes there needs to be time for brainstorming alongside other daily tasks, as many things are ongoing at the same time. Advertising ideas that arise spontaneously should be quickly implemented on notice boards. Changing advertising material sparks interest among drivers when advertising that is relevant to the place and time has been produced.
Successfully to the wall
Janne Jokinen commented on the collaboration with Jidoka as follows: Regarding the large screens (previous LED displays Bloke And NextWe've had really good experiences with Jidoka, which is why we bought a new one through them too.

The latest addition, the car wash LED display, is impressive and has been working well. In addition, all the work done in preparation for the LED display has proceeded according to schedule, which is important to us, knowing who to trust when it comes to advertising displays.
Munkkiniemi Parish purchased a 3x3 video wall To Munkkivuori Church. The aim was to offer churchgoers, as well as future users, modern visual experiences as part of the overall concept. Before installation, the entire setup was carefully planned, taking measurements from the site and inspecting the installation location. Before the proposal, photographs were taken of the site, and a draft image was provided of the final proposal, showing what different solutions would look like at the location.
A custom mounting solution was made for the Munkkivuori Church onto a brick wall. By designing together, the best possible location was chosen. With a sufficiently large video wall, a surface area of the right size was created in the space, which is sure to be visible all the way to the back row.
We interviewed parish vicar Leo Gladia asking for his comments and feelings after several months of use.
From idea to action
The whole idea has been simmering in the background for a long time for Dean Glad. The idea gained momentum again when the management team visited London and Manchester. – We saw how in the living and growing churches there, in all of them, they had these video walls. We dreamed with the leadership team that maybe one day we would want one too.
Versatile use
The video wall was put to good use immediately when Munkkivuori Church hosted the MunkkaLove music event, which appealed to visual and auditory senses. – At MunkkaLove, people from the area were asked for their song requests. We hired an orchestra and invited people to events; the churches were completely full three times, and a crucial part of these was this video wall. During the events, the wall displayed interviews, song lyrics, pictures of the original performers, etc.
The video wall enabled versatile use of the space, with wireless solutions allowing the choir or the organist's playing to be showcased via the screen. The large screen also allows special events to be highlighted even better, for example in children's Christmas plays.
A large surface, along with lighting, can also strongly appeal to emotions. It makes it an even more powerful experience. Just yesterday I was looking at a situation where if there was nothing like this, then as this is such a big church, you are far away and cannot see the child's expressions properly.
The arrival of the video wall has also brought increased enthusiasm for planning. – When I know up to half a year in advance when it's my turn to preach, I start thinking about the topic visually. The acquisition has brought new enthusiasm. At the same time, new ideas have also emerged regarding the versatile use of the church, ranging from screening major sporting events to film series with a Christ theme.
After we had agreed on the installation and delivery with Jidoka, that's how it went. The video wall turned out to be quite successful. One might think that installing a large video wall could easily spoil such a sacred space in a church. But in this case, working together, they found a place for it that makes it even better. A simple and clear process.
– Leo Glad, Vicar
Message-first communication
We wanted to reach a younger demographic, in this day and age where we've become accustomed to this kind of visual communication. Our culture has become very visual, visual communication is everywhere: on televisions, trams, in shopping centres or on social media. It's part of people's lives, they've become used to receiving and reading messages visually.
The tool is a message, the fact that we have such a tool in itself tells that we are trying to take the operating environment seriously, that we are living this life just like everyone else.
– The aim with this visual aspect is not so much to achieve understanding, but rather to reach an emotional level, to generate emotional experiences. In this, the visual aspect and music are very much of this time.
The video screen is not an end in itself, but merely a tool. It is a tool with which we try to reach people and become relevant in people's lives. In that respect, the church's position has changed; it's not enough for the church to simply exist, people need to *experience* what it has to offer. That's what draws people in.”
Pastor Glad emphasizes the importance of the message – Showcasing great photos and videos isn't the end goal in itself, but rather a tool for engaging people and bringing meaning and purpose, help and support, joy and sorrow, into people's lives.
The Häijään Äijä shopping centre got its own advertising screen at the beginning of the year when a 21.5m² LED advertising screen was erected next to the shopping centre's wall. The LED advertising screen is designed to advertise Häijään Äijä's services to those travelling on the Sastamala road, as well as to residents and travellers in the town who turn into the Neste and shop's yard.
Variations in ambient brightness were taken into account with automatic brightness control, which brightens the screen when bathed in sunlight and dims it to an appropriate level in the dark. This ensures the LED screen's image remains sharp and is clearly visible to customers arriving in the yard.
It was decided to raise the advertising screen as high as possible to achieve maximum visibility for the displayed content. Vehicles move between the shopping centre and the neighbouring Neste petrol station from various directions, but the screen located on the entrance side of the yard area is clearly visible thanks to its wide viewing angle. The frame, designed for the location and built by hand by Jidoka, was securely attached to the shopping centre's structures, ensuring it doesn't move even in strong stormy winds.
The advertising screen's content is updated remotely. Changing the advertisements has been made easy for the customer. Pre-scheduled content, special offers, and weather information can be updated with just a few clicks. The customer received user training for content management. Additionally, Jidoka supports and monitors the screen's operation as part of the delivered overall solution.
Advertising screen subscriber Janne Jokinen describes the connection between the sales event and the outcome of the screen: ”What Jidoka's employees promise – they also deliver.”.
Ellivuori, located in the city of Sastamala, is a leisure centre boasting a ski resort and hotel, amongst other facilities, with numerous services. The Ellivuori area is situated on the scenic Salonsaari island in Rautavesi. The Ellivuori area is developing and growing at a rapid pace with new destinations being built in the area.
With an LED display Ellivuori Resort effectively communicates current and future tourism services to visitors. The screen was attached to an existing pylon, reaching as many drivers as possible from afar. The hotel's advertising screen is mounted at a height that ensures it's visible to as many drivers as possible over a wide area. At an appropriate height, the LED screen's messages are clearly visible from various types of vehicles.
”"”The table has worked really well!”"”
– Susanna Hakala, Business Manager, Ellivuori
Susanna Hakala, business director, explained that the use of visuals and moving images has greatly enhanced design and the ideation of advertising material. An LED screen enables, among other things, the addition of weather information to the display, as well as images and videos. Weather information is particularly important in winter for users of the nearby ski resort. A multifaceted advertising video can also be shown on an LED screen. It instantly tells a potential customer more via video than text could convey and display. In video format, one image can convey more than a thousand words. ”An advertising display with changing content is a completely different matter to a ”cardboard sign”.”.
The export of advertisements from the idea stage to the display is also effortless and fast with Campaign Management Systems (CMS). ”Plans made with bullet points can be quickly transformed into actual eye-catchers on a tight schedule.” Advertising material can be updated remotely and modified quickly as needed. An LED display brings credibility to the area and the business. The device itself is a message that the area is moving forward and is part of development.
From our side, the installation was completed in half a day. The installation and systems have been configured for the customer to make usage as easy and effortless as possible.

We needed to get an accurate exterior display with a fast delivery time for the new Student Village Foundation of Turku'sTYS) to the Aitiopaikka apartment complex. The information screen provided by Jidoka allows you to follow the energy produced by the solar panels in real-time, as well as announcements from us and our partners.
We are unreservedly satisfied with the delivery of the Jidoka, both in terms of delivery time and the quality of the display system.
In December 2018, Jidoka Technologies Oy delivered a video wall approximately 2.2 metres wide and 1.2 metres high, consisting of four 49” Full HD panels. The LCD video wall was installed in our meeting rooms as part of our video conferencing system. The delivery included the hardware, its installation, and an operational training.
The Jidoka employees were active and interested in us from start to finish. All our follow-up questions were answered quickly and thoroughly. From the outset, the honest and open discussion, as well as the genuine desire to serve us, impressed us. The quality of the solution met our requirements, and its price was competitive. These factors led to our decision to procure the video wall we needed from Jidoka.
Nokian Pyry The video wall acquired from Jidoka was put into use in November, and was completed just in time for the Mestis Goes Business event held on 22.11.2017. On the same day, a Suomi-Sarja match was also played between Nokian Pyry and Kaarina Indians, which, after a tough contest, ended in a victory for the home team. Overall, the evening was met with great satisfaction – including the new video wall.
Technically, the display wall offers a razor-sharp image, fast response time, and brightness suitable for ice rink conditions. Wide viewing angles allow for clear visibility of content from almost anywhere in the rink. The solution was implemented with a custom mounting, ensuring the display is at an optimal height for spectators. Thanks to the assembled panels, the display wall is also easily expandable as needed.
With the help of a display wall, Nokia Pyry can offer an even higher quality match event at the Suomi-Sarja level. It enables impressive player introductions, crowd engagement, and the showcasing of diverse advertising and video material. As an investment, the solution is long-lasting, versatile, and cost-effective.
Collaboration and delivery with Jidoka have been effortless; they are committed to serving the customer according to their needs and delivering products on schedule. We have become acquainted with several Jidoka employees during the process, and they are all united by a warm customer service attitude.
Our intention is to continuously develop video wall content, utilising its capabilities with diverse videos and animations.
I can recommend a similar solution for all other companies and organisations involved in credible sports activities, and Jidoka as a supplier.
We implemented display solutions supplied by Jidoka Technologies Oy in our store at Koskikeskus, Tampere, at the beginning of December 2016. Our goal was to capture the attention of shopping centre visitors with our striking advertising material and more effectively guide them to our store to make purchases. We succeeded in this goal very well, and this particular solution was immediately evident as a strong increase in Christmas sales. Based on the results, we estimate that the solution will pay for itself within the first year of use.
As a supplier and partner for in-store visual communication solutions, Jidoka Technologies Oy is accurate, reliable, and provides excellent service. Jidoka has supported us in finalising advertising materials and has been quick and flexible in uploading new materials to our Display Wall. Cooperation with Jidoka has gone excellently, and we intend to acquire more in-store visual communication solutions from Jidoka. I warmly recommend Jidoka Technologies Oy as a supplier of visual communication solutions.
Giant tablet
We have made progress Aukian in line with their wishes, and have occasionally highlighted the latest innovations in Digital Signage. We supplied a 43″ Giant Tablet to the Tampere Aukia store to serve customers even better. We previously wrote in more detail about bringing an online store into a physical shop. Read Timo's thoughts, now that the Giant Tablet has been assisting in the store for several months:
The large 'Jidoka' tablet in the store, located in close proximity to the fitting room area, serves effectively as both a support for sales staff and customers in showcasing the product range. Through the tablet, a sales assistant can easily present customers with various product options and availability information, not only from their own store but also from the chain's and the online shop's selections. The user-friendly interface has also ensured that customers can independently explore the store's current promotions and new product arrivals.

84″ Giant Display Tower
We delivered an 84” horizontal Giant Display Tower to the clothing store Aukia to attract customers to Aukia's Kamppi store in Helsinki. Aukia Menswear is a fashion house for men, established in 1956.
Aukia's Kamppi store commissioned an eye-catching advertising display solution from us to attract passers-by to their store on the 4th floor. The chosen location was as visible as possible, right by the entrance, offering a direct view from the escalators on the upper floor. This allows for effective material to capture the attention of people passing by.
RekryIT is an ICT sector networking and recruitment event that connects ICT professionals and companies. The event is organised by a Turku-based Cooperative Droppi, which implements projects and solutions for businesses. Drop has particular expertise in areas such as marketing, sales, and event management.
Our double-sided wireless display tower was used as an information medium at the RekryIT event organised by Osuuskunta Droppi in October in Turku.
Veli-Pekka Virtanen, a member of Osuuskunta Drop, commented on the added value brought by our solution:
”"”The display tower was placed next to the information desk, and those running the information desk felt it projected a very professional image, thereby elevating the event and our profile.”"”
A multi-screen display was installed at the Kauniainen Sports Hall scoreboard system. The hall's spectator area can accommodate over 500 spectators who can enjoy top-tier matches in sports such as handball and floorball. The facility also offers other versatile recreational opportunities, such as wall climbing and gymnastics.
Kauniainen sports hall It has been developed several times, most recently now that Jidoka supplied a new LED scoreboard with multi-sport support. The scoreboard includes handball and floorball sport support, among other features. The system comprises several different display surfaces, including a large main scoreboard of 7.3m.2 32″ LCD screens intended for both players and coaches. As the main scoreboard is located above the officials and players, facing the main stand, separate 32” screens were implemented for both dugouts to facilitate an easier overview of the situation. The match information displayed for the players is clear, making it visible during fast-paced match situations.
All of this is managed with a couple of touchscreens, with one operator handling the game situations themselves and another touchscreen taking care of audience entertainment and other matters. This helps the person responsible for audience entertainment to sense the atmosphere, for example, by sitting amongst the audience, thus keeping them in tune with the situation.
1.5 million2 The LED screen is tilted at an optimal viewing angle towards the main audience, allowing viewers to best experience and see the content displayed on the screen.
Protection and maintenance considered
The screens are protected by safety glass, so the glass absorbs impacts from any errant balls. The operating environment was taken into account at the facility, for example, the resin used in handball can spread to various surfaces in the hall, making the surface of the safety glass easier to clean than resin directly on the panel.
The scoreboard itself is protected by thick Plexiglas from various kinds of balls.
Listening to users and developing further
The screen is in heavy use during local sports club matches, including GrIFK. Handball yes floorball. The display allows for videos tailored to different sports and clubs, as well as ad placements during matches. It is also possible to show videos of special events and short video clips to entertain the audience.
The software has been further developed, based on both Jidoka's software development and customer feedback. The result is an evolved, more versatile scoreboard solution that is more functional for end-users.
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.
New pesäpallo scoreboard for Rauma, TopTeam Arena – Jidoka easy to use scoreboard system in use.
Baseball in Rauma Otanlahti Baseball StadiumThey are playing WildThis enables teams in the Superpesis women's league and enthusiasts right down to the youngest juniors. The scoreboard's advantage is that the same features from the entire scoreboard are available for every user group. Nevertheless, usage remains easy and control is immediate. At the same time, other features, such as displaying advertisements and various video files, can be removed or enabled without significantly changing usability. Once the match event is over, the screen returns to advertisement & information mode; the advertising content can be updated via the cloud from anywhere.
The advertisements on the centre of the scoreboard offer viewers further information about the sports clubs' sponsors. The display can be used versatilely, as after the match, its entire surface area functions as an advertising space. The display enables the visualisation of various situations for customers, such as running race starts, bases loaded, and home run videos by easily playing them from a list. All controlled by a single operator.
Energy-saving features have been implemented by Jidoka tailoring optimal brightness levels for the display, ensuring it's at an appropriate brightness in all weather conditions. This has also been communicated and considered for customers regarding advertising materials, as well as the display's appearance, favouring darker colours. The scoreboard is also timed to be off during certain hours, thus saving electricity during quieter periods.
The best is done together
The decision was made to place the pesäpallo scoreboard near third base, ensuring the display is at a suitable distance from the stands, players, and spectators. The long length of the pesäpallo field causes many headaches. A display in the outfield would require a truly large surface area for the visibility to be as good as it is now.
The screen is also protected from balls that might come towards it directly or indirectly. The protective netting catches the biggest bounces, so the balls do not reach the screen.
Listening to customers
The scoreboard display was further customised to be even more functional for the baseball stadium, listening to the client's needs. The end result received praise from the clients:
”The scoreboard looks good. The fantastic videos we made were shown at the last match, and judging by the crowd's reaction, they were seen too!”
”Our initial impression is that we received the desired solution; the scoreboard section is user-friendly and clear to view, and the stand/board structures look good and feel high-quality. You had even managed to add a protective net, which is great! The installation and delivery went as agreed.”
After the scoreboard system has been installed, the scoreboard is under 24/7 remote monitoring, enabling customers to be assisted as quickly as possible in various situations. It's easy to be satisfied after a spectacular and modern scoreboard delivery.

Äänekoski Property Maintenance Two large and striking video walls have been installed in the meeting rooms. In varying lighting conditions, the video walls are visible to all meeting participants, even when the room has a lot of natural light. Combined with wireless information sharing, the LCD video walls are the perfect companion for meetings.
Combined with Jidokan's expertise and the client's needs, a cost-effective solution was found. Building the video walls went smoothly for the installation crew and both parties were satisfied with the end result.
Äänekoski gets an innovative scoreboard system for its ice rink
Jidoka has installed a multi-display system in the new To Äänekoski Ice Hall. As a result of development work, one of the world's most energy-efficient ice rinks earned an innovative scoreboard system. The new technology enables communication and advertising to the ice rink's audience and other arriving visitors.
An innovative scoreboard system transforms to perfectly suit any sport and event. During matches and competitions, all on-screen elements adapt to each sport, while outside of sporting events, the LED display surfaces show advertisements according to set schedules.
Controlling the displays is possible with any touchscreen, and anyone can learn to use the system in an instant.
In addition to scoreboards, the ice rink's name sign is also digital. This allows, for example, for the hall's name to be sold or for moving elements to be used on the light sign.
Overall, the installations went smoothly. In a challenging installation environment, the use of the ice rink was taken into consideration to minimise disruption for the ice rink users. Jidoka has also provided support and updated the scoreboard functions based on feedback after the installation.
In Äänekoski, digitisation has been taken at a stroke to the level it deserves.
