A supersized, high bright, and weather resistant Philips Urban LED 7000 Series display has been installed at FC Barcelona’s Tito Vilanova training pitch at the Ciutat Esportiva campus.

The introduction of the state-of-the-art display system will bring new visual capabilities and detailed analysis to the touchline for both coaching and playing staff.

With 6,000 nits of high brightness, the 3.9pp Philips Urban LED 7000 Series LED wall was the standout choice for this exciting project, capable of standing up to the rigours of all weather and lighting conditions in the Catalonian capital, whether heavy rain, direct sunlight or floodlight glare. The 7000 Series also includes an IP66 rating, resistant to dust and corrosive airborne salt spray from the nearby Mediterranean sea.

Mirroring FC Barcelona’s famous ‘Més que un Club’ (More than a Club) motto, the Philips Urban LED 7000 Series (44HUL7039DP//00) is more than just a screen, providing coaching staff with multiple live views of the action, together with detailed real time player analysis and instant reviews/replay capabilities.

The Philips Urban LED 7000 Series installation was completed efficiently and on time, with minimal disruption to the team’s training schedule and seamless integration into the stadium infrastructure.

Cesar Sans, sales director for Iberia at PPDS, said: “The display isn’t just an opportunity for the coaching team or those in attendance to get a clearer view of the action. It provides new, deeper levels of analysis, from player data to tactical decisions which could be the difference between success and failure.”
