TWINS TARGET FIELD GRAPHICS POWERED BY CHYRON
Melville, NY, June 8, 2010: Chyron (NASDAQ: CHYR) has installed two new graphics systems in the new Target Field home of the Minnesota Twins.
Fans will be treated to promotional player clips, graphic messages and community billboard announcements, generated and managed by Chyron’s HyperX³ graphics systems.
HyperX³, Chyron’s on-air 3D graphics system, combined with the award-winning Lyric® PRO 7 design and render engine drives breathtaking graphics of the highest quality and is rapidly becoming the graphics system of choice for sports venues around the world.
HyperX³ features broadcast-quality, real-time animation and seamless interoperability with external systems. Target Field uses the display for baseball statistical information on the Daktronics HD video board through their DakStats service via intelligent interface. With the ability to instantly update text and graphics from this service, the HyperX³ is ideal for never missing a play.
Minnesota Twins Senior Director, Broadcast/Game Presentation, Andy Price said, "The Twins were starting from scratch in programming and operating a state-of-the-art Video Board. It makes it easier when you can turn to a trusted name like Chyron to help. From training to support and actual execution, Chyron and the HyperX³ has played a major role in making the Target Field experience special."
Chyron Chief Operating Officer Kevin Prince added, “Our graphics systems are being adopted by major sporting venues the world over. The combination of speed, power and flexibility is not only cost-effective, but ideal for the requirements of modern venues of any type.”
