Submitted into the public record in connection with item -7 on 2 OU Walter Foeman Citv Clerk 00- 656 F1 L�I nI u 1 With more than 350 screens installed world-wide, the Sony JumboTron has become an invaluable means of conveying images and information to large audiences at sporting venues, shopping centers, and concerts. Having set the standard of excellence for large screen display systems, Sony is now proud to introduce the new LED JumboTron large screen display system. The result of careful research and development, this system significantly raises the performance level of LED technology. With the new LED JumboTron, Sony now provides complete, customized systems to meet the needs of any installation, even those not previously possme because of weight and space nmitations. The oightweight, thin design of the JTS-LI5 makes Jt the ideal choice 'nor MUM and advertising With outstanding picture reproduction and uniformity, you can captivate your audience at sports arenas, auditoriums, convention centers, and many other locations. 00— G-56 Features ■ Picture Quality Excellent Uniformity The brightness of individual LEDs is adjustable, ensuring a high degree of uniformity between the pixels. The use of the Screen and Unit Alignment Controllers further maintains uniformity over the life of the screen. Pixel Pitch and Density Pixel pitch (the distance between adjaceiht pixels) and pixel density (the number of pixels per square meter) are essential in determining picture resolution. With a pixel pitch of just 15 mm and a pixel density of 4,444 pixels/mz, the LED unit can display full motion pictures, still pictures, computer graphics, and other information with vivid, natural - looking results. Viewing Angle and Range With a horizontal viewing angle of 120°, the LED JumboTron is able to convey your message to large audiences. From distances as close as 7.6 meters, audiences will be impressed by the quality and clarity of the image. 10 -bit Digital Processing When converting the analog input signal into a digital signE the LED JumboTron adopts a new partial 10 -bit signal conversion. This reduces digital noise that is particularly noticeable when reproducing dark color gradations (0/256 1 5/256). Partial 10 -bit conversion improves on 8-bit conversion by separating each of the 256 color gradations into four smaller gradations, making color reproduction more precise. 85it 105a z 0 1 kA YE[Ek rt 10 1.23 a3 _ 0-1 0.2 0-3 tM 1-1 1-2 1-3 1-4 5-t 5-2 5� 5-', r6-3 n 2 Pixel Configuration An inverted triangle configuration was chosen for the alignment of the individual LED elements because of the way the eye perceives light. As the eye is naturally drawn to red and green, these elements are placed side-by-side t facilitate color mixing. Placing the red and green elements at the top of the inverted triangle allows the louvers that a incorporated in the unit to reduce ambient light striking these elements, improving color contrast. Color Compensation The LED color reproduction area differs from the NTSC/PA reproduction area and, when left uncorrected, LED display produce colors that do not appear natural to the eye. Therefore, the new JumboTron utilizes a color compensatio function to reduce these differences, enabling more natur, color reproduction.

One -touch installation refers to the unique spring- loaded pin design allowing installation without screws or bolts. The units have fixed guide pins on one side and spring-loaded ejection pins on the other for quick insertion and removal from the flat -bar frame. Modular Installation For even easier installation of the LED JumboTron, Sony introduces prefabricated 4:3 aspect ratio modules. Each module consists of twelve units, pre-installed in a frame with all of the necessary electrical and signal cables. Assembly of 4:3 and 16:9 screens is as simple as combining modules to achieve the desired screen size and aspect ratio. Since all cables are attached to the module, connecting time is minimized, significantly reducing assembly time. As with the "One -touch" installation version of the LED JumboTron, easy access to and removal of individual units is possible from both the front and rear of the screen. LDU-1515 Indoor Unit The LDU-1515 unit has been specifically designed to provide a more cost-effective option for indoor installations. Because it will not be exposed to high temperatures and precipitation, unessential features such as waterproofing have been eliminated, resulting in a lighter unit. To further improve the cost -efficiency of the LDU-1515 JumboTron unit, the brightness has been fine-tuned for indoor use, providing a more than ample brightness of 1500 cd/m2 for spectacular video and graphics presentations. Active Cooling System The LED JumboTron has an active heat radiation system inside each unit. This eliminates the need for extensive cooling systems. Lightweight, Thin Design The lightweight and thin design of the new LED JumboTron makes it ideal for installations where weight and soace are I Service and Plaintenance IUnit Design fl 1 The LED JumboTron utilizes the same design concept as CRT JumboTron systems. The unit is the basic component of screen construction and also of repair and service - faulty units can be quickly and easily replaced. ICU Controller The ICU (Image Control Unit) Controller has advanced, built-in communication capabilities for both present and future needs. Simply connecting the controller to a modem" will enable wireless communication with the Screen Alignment Controller. In the future, a modem connection will allow Sony Service Centers remote access to the controller to obtain relevant information such as cumulative time of system operation and any error messages. modem s not included in the system Screen Alignment Controller The Screen Alignment Controller has a PC Card (PCMCIA) slot to allow a PC Card modem and cellular phone to be connected." This configuration allows wireless communication with the ICU Controller during screen alignment. Wired communication is also possible with an optional RS -422 cable. 'PC Card modem and cellular phone are not included with the system Status Lamp Each unit has a status lamp on the rear panel to indicate its current status. Normal status is indicated by a green light and an error by a red light. When maintenance or service is performed, the status lamps indicate which units need attention. The Unit Alignment Controller performs precise adjustments in the luminance of ' JumboTron units. Used in combination with the Unit Alignment Sensor, which measures the brightness level of individual cells, the Unit Alignment Controller is able to compare this level with the reference data of a properly functioning cell ' and automatically adjust other cells to the same brightness. As a result, it is possible to maintain a superior uniformity of brightness and color throughout the life of the screen. ' ICU The Image Control Unit (ICU) is the signal processor for the new LED JumboTron system. With innovative Sony technology, including partial 10 -bit digital processing and color compensation, the ICU enhances the picture quality of the LED display. ABC Sensor Unit ABC (Automatic Brightness Control) Sensors detect ambient lighting conditions. Screen brightness is then automatically adjusted to the average brightness level detected by the ABC Sensors, resulting in optimum image reproduction.
