Roku/BrightSign: Digital Signage with Full HD

roku_brightsign_logoRoku, a FrameChannel partner, announces five new digital signage models, offering “standard features of full HD video, a new compact-size and Zones, for displaying multiple content windows on a single screen.”

Says Anthony Wood, CEO and founder of Roku, “Clearly we planned the release of our 2009 BrightSign compact-sized product line well before the start of the economic downsturn, but we couldn’t have timed this launch better.  Our five new models are designed for specific digital signage applications and allow customers to select and pay for only the features they need.  We are offering an HD looping player for less than $300, and high end controllers offering advanced interactivity and full networking support for less than $700.”

BrightSign, well known for quality, reliability, and ease of use, deliver these promises in all five new models, and  in a compact package.

Roku/BrightSign debuted their full HD digital signage product line at the Digital Signage Expo in Las Vegas last February.

Wegener Corporation Will Present At Digital Signage Expo 2009

From CNNMoney.com comes this article about the Wegener Corporation vice president of marketing Kamy Merithew, who will be speaking at the Digital Signage 2009 Expo at the Las Vegas Convention Center next week.

In recent years, digital signage networks have been growing in popularity as a cost-effective means of building and reinforcing brand and corporate identities, as well as informing and entertaining customers in retail, hospitality, transportation, and other public venues. During the workshop, Merithew will focus on “after hours” uses for digital signage-specifically how retailers can use their digital signage networks to better communicate with their employees before and after store operating hours.

“Digital signage networks give corporations a dynamic, paperless means of communicating with employees who are dispersed across their retail sites,” said Merithew. “It also offers point-to-multipoint distribution of information about sales training, theft prevention, security drills, employee benefits, and other timely corporate communications. This workshop will focus on techniques to maximize the scheduling of time-specific and repetitive content to serve multiple audiences.”
