To address this need, a bespoke TAIT Automated Flying™ System was developed, manufactured and installed at the crypto.com arena. This system includes a rectangular truss and associated rigging, with vertical movement powered by synchronized chain hoists. When not in use, the truss rig is tucked away above the court. Before each game, it smoothly descends from the stadium’s center, temporarily covering the scoreboard. Projection surfaces roll down to create screens for pre-game visuals, made possible by TAIT roll-drops. This entire setup is controlled by the TAIT Navigator Automation system, which integrates seamlessly with the arena’s AV equipment. Since the Lakers only occupy the venue for part of the year, the system was designed for easy removal during the off-season, allowing flexibility for other events held at the arena.
