PPDS has supplied a Philips Urban LED 7000 Series display for FC Barcelona’s Tito Vilanova training pitch at the club’s Ciutat Esportiva campus.
The 5.5 x 3m LED wall, installed by local integration partner LED Dream, delivers high-brightness visuals and real-time analysis tools to support the first team’s training programmes.
The 3.9pp Urban LED 7000 Series, with 6,000 nits of brightness, is designed to perform in all weather and lighting conditions, with an IP66 rating protecting against rain, dust, and salt spray from the nearby Mediterranean. Positioned pitch-side, the display is used by coaches to review live play, deliver tactical insights, and analyse player performance.
“The display isn’t just an opportunity for the coaching team or those in attendance to get a clearer view of the action,” said César Sans, sales director for Iberia at PPDS. “It provides new, deeper levels of analysis, from player data to tactical decisions which could be the difference between success and failure.”
The installation at Ciutat Esportiva complements PPDS’ wider partnership with FC Barcelona, where Philips Professional Displays are being deployed as part of the redevelopment of the Spotify Camp Nou stadium.
Jae O Choi Park, head of commercial EMEA at PPDS, said: “We are delighted FC Barcelona recognised the quality and capabilities of Philips Professional Displays, and the possibilities they can provide. When it comes to quality, we do not accept second best and, as history tells you, neither does FC Barcelona.”
