The new equipment consists of 13-inch full HD monitors with a resolution of 1920x1080 pixels and a brightness of 300 Cadela installed in rows 9 and 10. The new technology makes it possible to follow the television picture live in HD quality at the same time as the live action in the stadium. Media representatives can select different channels individually via a user-friendly navigation module on each table.
During the match against Dortmund, it will be possible to receive the live broadcast picture on channel 1, the live match statistics will be displayed on channel 2, and the scores of the current matchday can be viewed on channel 3. In the future, there will be further selection options, for example the Bayer 04 live blog.
Holger Tromp, Director of Communications at Bayer 04: "It is important to us that we support the media representatives working on their reporting at our games as professionally as possible. The demands on journalists have increased enormously in recent years. As a club, we also aim to always offer the most modern infrastructure possible."
There won’t just be plenty of excitement on the pitch as Bayer 04 host Borussia Dortmund at the BayArena at 18:30 CET on Saturday. Outside the stadium there will be collection points for food donations to the Leverkusen Foodbank, which will also benefit from the profits of a jersey raffle in the Fanwelt afterwards. There will also be a minute’s silence before kick-off following the passing of long-time Werkself player Dieter Herzog, before two fan clubs are honoured for their decades-long support at half-time and fans receive a talk about Orange Day, the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women.
