A jumbotron,[1] sometimes referred to as jumbovision, is a video display using large-screen television technology (video wall).
The original technology was developed in the early 1980s by Mitsubishi Electric[2] and Sony, which coined JumboTron as a brand name in 1985.[3] Mitsubishi Electric sold their version of the technology as Diamond Vision. It is typically used in sports stadiums and concert venues to show team statistics, close up shots of an event or even other sporting events occurring simultaneously.[4][5]The same jumbotron technology is used in outdoor public places, often for advertising purposes (such as Times Square, for example).[6]
