Hawks, Suns & Raptors to Feature ANC's DLP®
(Purchase, New York, September 11, 2007) - ANC Sports Enterprises today announced the Atlanta Hawks, Phoenix Suns and Toronto Raptors, will raise the number of National Basketball Association teams featuring full motion video, real-time statistics and unlimited inventory courtside to eight.
The Hawks, Suns and Raptors join the Boston Celtics, Cleveland Cavaliers, Indiana Pacers, Minnesota Timberwolves and Portland Trail Blazers in replacing traditional courtside rotational signage with ANC's DLP® Digital Courtside Signage System.
"The DLP® Digital Courtside Signage System is transforming the NBA and NCAA basketball arena and television experience," said Jerry Cifarelli, president and chief executive officer of ANC Sports Enterprises. "The ability to provide real-time information courtside creates a limitless amount of sponsor opportunities and fan entertainment."
The digital courtside technology maximizes revenue potential with unlimited courtside inventory and the ability to display real-time statistics in conjunction with an advertiser's message, drawing fans' attention to the sponsor of points in the paint, rebounds or three point field goals. Sponsors will now have the ability to easily change their artwork or cost-effectively create new promotions throughout the season. The new technology also expands an arena's opportunity to create an energetic atmosphere through courtside animations and crowd prompts.
ANC's DLP® Digital Courtside Signage Systems are driven by the company's patent pending VisionSOFT operating system. VisionSOFT is a custom developed software application created to control multiple high-definition displays simultaneously from one platform. The advanced 3D interface will distribute uncompressed video to each DLP® monitor in real time, eliminating all distortion to provide the clearest image possible for fans in the arena and watching on television.
ANC's digital courtside display systems consist of DLP® modules encased in custom built scorer tables. The seven NBA teams feature between 33' and 56' of the new technology at center court and on the baselines.
