As a leader in dynamic messaging, 32 Daktronics continues to enhance its Vanguard Road Show with the latest in high resolution full colour signage. This travelling trailer, the only road show of its kind in the industry, not only visits ITS conferences, conventions and demonstrations throughout the U.S., but is also available for agencies to view demonstrations at their facilities.

Daktronics’ Vanguard Road Show gives ITS professionals an up-close, hands-on demonstration of a range of the company’s products, including full colour models with 20mm display capabilities.

The trailer now has all 20mm high resolution products on it: walk-in, front access, dedicated DMS for toll and lane management signs.

Mike Weinberg, Transportation Product Manager, commented, “The Vanguard Road Show underlines our commitment to meeting the needs of our customers by taking our range of ITS products to them in an innovative way, so they can be hands-on with the different options.”

One particular product on the Vanguard Road Show trailer is the company’s latest transportation innovation – the recently released single-line 20mm HRFC (high resolution, full colour) dedicated dynamic message sign, the VM-1020 Series LED display.

According to Mike Weinberg, transportation agencies now have the ability to show alternate character and background colours such as black alphanumeric text on a white background on a single line, low profile display. With the sign’s HRFC capabilities, users can also match the background colour of the display message to the static signage in compliance with MUTCD (Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Displays) standards.

Available in standard character heights of 12” or 18”, the displays are best suited to applications requiring high occupancy tolling, travel time or advisory messages.
