Digital ‘triangle’ installed at Richmond Oval

Edmonton-based Axe Integrated Solutions has custom-designed and installed a three-sided light-emitting diode (LED) billboard at the Olympic Oval in Richmond, B.C. It is reportedly the first outdoor sign anywhere in North America to use Nichia’s new-generation surface-mount black LED technology.

Axe worked in conjunction with TDH Enterprises in Surrey, B.C., to complete the project. While Nichia’s technology was primarily used for indoor displays in the past, its new 10-mm (0.4-in.) diodes—installed in Yaham Optoelectronics’ front-serviceable modules—provide a wider viewing angle, higher luminous intensity and better contrast ratio than earlier models, ensuring sharper image quality outdoors while maintaining energy efficiency. Axe is Yaham’s Canadian distributor for LED products.

The Richmond Olympic Oval has integrated the three-sided pylon sign with Scala’s digital signage software to display a mix of out-of-home (OOH) advertising and service/event notifications.
