This new multi-media display will consist of 24 individual high-definition LED displays. The displays will be curved to mirror the circular design of The Garden, providing maximum visibility to all seating areas. According to Daktronics, the scoreboard will be one of two structures in all of sports with LED displays on the inside, bottom for those seated in the lower sections. The main video displays are capable of showing one large image all the way around the board for live video and instant replays.

The center-hung video displays will have a unique all-black LED package, providing maximum image clarity and contrast.
The four main video displays measure 15.7 feet tall by 28 feet wide. Directly above those displays are four auxiliary video displays measuring more than 6 feet tall by 29 feet wide. The corners of GardenVision contain four curved displays that match the height of the main video displays. Four more curved displays matching the height of the auxiliary displays. Together the displays create a full circular video board.
The inside bottom screens will provide statistics, game information, and show replays. The top of GardenVision contains an ID ring consisting of a backlit LED panel that is more than 2 feet tall and circles the entire top of the structure. Daktronics says that the inside of GardenVision will offer internal structural accommodations for Wi-Fi, IT and broadcast equipment to improve WiFi coverage throughout the Arena and provide compelling camera angles. The board can be lowered and expanded for different events.
“Madison Square Garden wanted the very best and we’re proud to deliver that to them,” said vice president of Daktronics Live Events Jay Parker. “The curvature of the main video displays offers Madison Square Garden something that’s never really been done before in this type of application. It’s very unique and fitting for this venue. The underside displays serve as additional space for any form of content and really exemplify how different this display system is from every other venue in the country. The flexibility and content options present endless possibilities for this versatile set up. This project has been a great undertaking and it was a joy to work with such great people at Madison Square Garden, we are excited to see everything fired up and running for their first event.”
