Improved Security Views Provided for Hamad Medical Center from Daktronics and Techno Q

Four security rooms outfitted with LED video walls

BROOKINGS, S.D. – Jan. 19, 2022 – To improve the view in four security rooms, Daktronics has partnered with Techno Q to deliver 1.2-millimeter, narrow pixel pitch (NPP) LED video walls to Hamad Medical Center (HMC) in Doha, Qatar. Three of the four installations are complete and provide closed caption television (CCTV) feeds to officials at Cuban Hospital, Heart Hospital and Al Wakrah locations. The Al Khor display will be installed in the coming months.

Eng. Dhafi Al Marri, executive director of corporate engineering and health facilities management for HMC, commented, “It was a pleasure to be at Daktronics and see all of the processes that go into the screens and displays manufactured by this company. The quality of the product itself keeps going up and Daktronics is looking to improve it, especially the resolution.”

The displays installed in HMC locations at Al Khor, Heart Hospital and Al Wakrah each measure 1.37 meters high by 5.49 meters wide and the display at Cuban Hospital will measure 1.37 meters high by 6.71 meters wide. These displays all feature a tight 1.2-millimeter pixel spacing to provide high-resolution imagery to the CCTV feeds allowing for improved details and image quality in those critical locations.

“Direct LED in control rooms is new technology to HMC,” said Mubarak Solkar, HMC design project manager. “We trust Daktronics to be our partner for this new technology and delivering the right solution to us.”

“HMC is keen to furniture its facilities with the latest and greatest technologies to offer its visitors and users ease of operation and second-to-none experience,” said Ahmad Dahmash, Daktronics regional manager.

Daktronics NPP product line features pixel spacings ranging from 2.5-millimeters down to 0.7-millimeters to meet the specific needs of audiovisual customers in multiple applications.
