The Technology Behind Every Championship Moment
Engineered from the ground up for broadcast production, competition play, and decade-long reliability — EcoSport LED systems are the infrastructure that keeps the game visible and the broadcast running flawlessly.
Broadcast-Ready Engineering
Zero flicker. Consistent color. Camera-invisible.
EcoSport LED systems are designed from the ground up for broadcast compatibility. Our flicker-free technology operates at 4,000+ Hz — making us completely invisible to high-speed cameras and eliminating the rolling shutter effect that plagues conventional LED and older HID fixtures. Broadcast directors, camera operators, and production crews can position cameras freely without worrying about strobing artifacts in their footage.
| Specification | Value |
|---|---|
| Flicker rate | < 0.3% — IEEE PAR 1789 compliant |
| Color temperature | 5000K–5700K (broadcast standard) |
| CRI standard | ≥ 80 |
| CRI broadcast premium | ≥ 90 (optional upgrade) |
| Color uniformity | ±200K across entire field of play |
| Ra Tv (Television Lighting Consistency Index) | ≥ 65 standard; ≥ 80 broadcast premium |
Precision Control Systems
Zone-by-zone control. One dashboard.
Our digital control platform gives venue operators instant, granular control over every zone in the facility. Switch between presets for practice, game day, broadcast, and maintenance — from a single dashboard or mobile interface. Whether you're an athletic director dimming the lights for a post-game ceremony or a broadcast engineer optimizing levels for camera exposure, the EcoSport control platform puts the entire lighting system at your fingertips.
- Wireless or wired control options
- Multi-level presets (adjustable 10–100% output)
- Zone-by-zone independent control
- Real-time energy monitoring dashboard
- Remote management capability
- DMX integration available for entertainment events
Energy & Longevity
60–70% less energy. 100,000-hour lifespan.
EcoSport LED systems consume 60–70% less energy than equivalent metal halide systems, while delivering consistent, maintained foot-candle levels over a 100,000+ hour rated lifespan. That means dramatically reduced maintenance costs and near-zero re-lamping expenses over the life of the system. For a facility running 1,000 hours of illuminated events per year, that's a system that reaches end-of-life in over 100 years of operation — long after your initial investment has paid for itself many times over.
Photometric Design Process
Custom-modeled before a single pole goes in the ground.
Every venue gets a custom photometric model before a single pole goes in the ground. Our engineers use AGi32 and DIALux — the industry's leading photometric modeling software — to simulate exact foot-candle levels, uniformity ratios, and spill/glare patterns across your specific field or court geometry. This ensures your facility meets or exceeds sport-specific IESNA standards on day one of operation, with a permit-ready documentation package in hand before construction begins.
Facility Survey & Existing Condition Documentation
We document existing infrastructure, pole locations, electrical service, and any constraints that will influence the new design. Site conditions are captured so the photometric model reflects reality — not a generic template.
Sport-Specific Standard Identification
We identify the applicable IESNA / IES standards for your sport, level of play, and broadcast requirements — establishing the design target before modeling begins. For multi-sport facilities, we identify the most demanding standard and design to meet it across all uses.
Photometric Model Build (AGi32 / DIALux)
Our engineers build a full 3D photometric model of your facility in AGi32 or DIALux, placing luminaires at proposed positions and running illuminance calculations across the full playing surface. Uniformity, vertical illuminance, and spill are all simulated and documented.
Design Review with Client — Adjust as Needed
The photometric model is presented to the client for review. Pole locations, fixture counts, and lighting levels can be adjusted based on budget, aesthetic, or operational feedback — and we re-run the model to confirm compliance with any revisions before finalizing.
Final Photometric Report Delivered for Permit & Approval
A complete photometric report is delivered in permit-ready format, including false-color illuminance maps, calculation grids, uniformity ratios, and fixture schedules. This documentation is accepted by state athletic associations, conference offices, and municipal permitting agencies.
Installation with Post-Install Verification Measurements
After installation, our team conducts physical foot-candle measurements at the grid points specified in the photometric model — verifying that the installed system delivers the designed performance. Measurement results are documented and delivered as a post-install performance report.
