Whatever the occasion – the festive opening ceremony, artistic performances or various sports events – at the Ruhr Games 21 in Bochum, ASB GlassFloor once again demonstrated all its versatility with its glass sports floor, inspiring visitors and participants alike. The highlight was undoubtedly the performance of Matthias Dandois, who claimed the title of BMX Flatland riding champion at the premiere of the UEC BMX Freestyle Flatland European Championship.
At the largest sports and cultural festival for young people, where around 5,600 young athletes from all over Europe took part in 240 top-class competitions, the full-LED video floor from ASB GlassFloor formed the centre court and the hub of the event. This is where the Ruhr Games were opened and closed, but with an abundance of sports events taking place betweenwhiles from 3 to 6 June on the spectacular glass flooring system. At the touch of a button, the appropriate image or perfect animation for the specific event was sent to the system, which basically functions like a monitor in the floor, thus providing the ideal emotional setting for the event in question.
The ASB LumiFlex is a transportable glass sports floor and can be set up within a day. It can be hired for an area of up to 216 m². For entire sports halls, the glass floor is also available in a more appropriate version. Here, only the lines predefined by LED are switched on and off. With this model, a wide variety of sports courts such as basketball, hockey, handball, badminton and volleyball can be displayed at the touch of a button, or even several small training courts. Only the lines that are really needed are displayed. Gone are the days of massive confusion over markings. A special feature is that the two floors can be combined other so that videos can be played in a predefined section.
