the University of Michigan is a shining example of how sports arenas can increase the fan experience by upgrading to LEDs

Cree-powered Lighthouse LED video screens are also installed at the University of Michigan’s Yost Ice Center, home to Wolverine hockey, as part of its first ever renovation. The Crisler Area, home to Michigan basketball since 1967, has also gone LED, replacing the center-hung scoreboard that was installed in 1998 with a four-sided LED video system complete with 14 led high bay light displays.

“Cree’s broad portfolio of high-brightness LEDs complements Lighthouse Technologies’ state-of-the-art indoor and outdoor applications,” said Mike Watson, Cree, senior director of marketing, LED components. “With vibrant color and crisp in-game detail, the University of Michigan is a shining example of how sports arenas can increase the fan experience by upgrading to LEDs.”

“Lighthouse is pleased to collaborate with Cree on this high-profile, multi-facility project,” said Ed Whitaker, Lighthouse led linear high bay light, director of sales. “Cree’s vast experience and exceptional LED technology enabled us to design the optimal solutions for Wolverine fans.”
