Lighthouse and Spinitar Install LED Video at Monte Vista High SchoolAudio video systems integrator Spinitar has installed a Lighthouse outdoor LED video display at Monte Vista High School in Danville, California. The LED video display is comprised of 40 Lighthouse Impact 8 panels in the high school's courtyard, to provide Monte Vista students with better communication of school activities during the class day. The Lighthouse display measures 10 panels wide (250") by 4 panels high (150"). The LED video project, part of a new $110 million addition to Monte Vista High School, was awarded to Spinitar. Their office in Hayward, California was responsible for the coordination, design and engineering, and field installation. The Spinitar team included project management, engineering, and field installation. The project consultant was Teecom out of Oakland, with Michael Witecki the lead consultant. The Impact 8 is part of Lighthouse's Impact series of LED video panels, the first waterproof SMD LED video chip for outdoor applications. With a wider viewing angle than non-SMD products, 6,000+ nits brightness levels and what the company says is a significant price advantage, the Impact series is ideal for sports arenas, outdoor digital signage, advertising billboards, shopping malls, and theme parks. The Impact 8 offers a large panel for quick installation, is IP65 rated, and provides front and rear access and easy-release IM structure for simple maintenance. According to the company, the Impact 8's 16-bit processing technology heightens brightness levels, color contrast and image quality, making it ideal for indoor or outdoor venues with bright ambient light. Monte Vista High School is a comprehensive, four-time state-distinguished, fully WASC accredited, National Blue Ribbon, 9-12 public high school. The school is located in the town of Danville, in the San Ramon Valley, approximately 35 miles east of San Francisco. "Lighthouse is excited to work with top integrator Spinitar on the Monte Vista High School project," says Ed Whitaker, general manager of Lighthouse Technologies N.A.S.A. region. "Our Impact 8 is the perfect choice to keep students informed." See Monte Vista High School's LED display in action at http://plasa.me/rs3sa.
