Install 270 LED screens, 400 loudspeakers
The Hanoi People's Committee has also issued a plan to install LED screens and loudspeakers in many areas of the capital to serve the people and tourists watching the parade and parade to celebrate the 80th anniversary of the August Revolution and National Day on September 2.
A total of 270 LED screens and 400 loudspeakers are deployed at routes, gateways, and public places to serve parades and parades. The LED screen system will be installed at 11 locations on three parade routes, parading with 14 screens, 6 gateways to the capital with 7 screens, 136 public points at the ward and commune level, prioritizing the use of cultural houses, schools, and stadiums.
In addition, 127 existing LED screens of the enterprise will be mobilized to broadcast propaganda and event cheering content.
In addition, the city will also install a system of 400 loudspeakers, divided into 200 sections, each section will be arranged with 1-2 loudspeakers, with a distance of 30-50m, covering a parade route of about 10 km long. The headlights will be securely hung on electric poles or lighting poles, and can withstand wind and rain, sound output reaching 80.90 dB in outdoor conditions.
This system uses signals taken from Ba Dinh Square, transmitted via fiber optic cables to "nodes" (technical coordinating points) arranged along the route. Each node has a technician on duty 24/7, ensuring smooth operation.
The official operating time is September 2, testing from August 20 to 30, dismantling before September 7.
