Digital Signage
Digital Signage
The use of LCD or LED screens to convey information both for advertising and informative purposes in public (or private) spaces is more commonly referred to as Digital Signage. From airports and retail environments to schools and offices, digital signage has become commonplace, captivating audiences, and transforming the way businesses communicate with their customers.
The Power of Digital Signage
A Digital Signage solution is made up of three basic components: Display, Media Player or OnChip & Control Software. Digital Signage can be used for digital advertising and very effective communication across many sectors including retail, fast food, public transport, and employee communications.
When implemented correctly with engaging content, digital signage does result in a high message recall rate and increased sales.
