Imagine an LCD screen in the reception area, displaying your school/college/university's current news, or sports results. Imagine that the same screen then also shows room changes, the lunch menu, today's extra-curricular activities. How about also showing local traffic and weather reports, perhaps some adverts from local businesses? That's basically digital signage - but there's more to it than that...

...of course there's more to it than that. As well as being able to display anything you like on the screen (images, video clips, web pages, database data to name a few) you can also choose to display these items at any time you like.

For example, in a school reception area, you might expect that between 08:00 and 08:45 messages are displayed which are useful to arriving staff and pupils (room changes, absences etc), then from 09:00 to 12:00 information for visitors would be displayed (recent academic or sporting results, extracts from OFSTED reports etc.) At lunchtimes, the school menu could be displayed, along with a reminder of the day's after-school activities for example. During the afternoon the systems could revert to showing information for visitors again. At the end of the school day the display could again be used to show information for staff and pupils leaving the site, such as traffic problems or a reminder of tomorrow's activities. All this can be scheduled hours, days, weeks or months in advance.

Digital signage is a useful tool for pupils, staff and visitors. Many of our customers have also used the digital signage to attract and display adverts from local businesses as a way to recoup the purchase cost, and then go on to make a profit...
