Hi.
Things have moved on quite a bit since the last post.
Digital Recall is a world first provider of free digital signage software that operates up to 2 locations for free. Additional locations and features can be added (at a price) if you need them – otherwise it’s free.

It’s simply downloaded off our website, and you can use your own equipment and an existing LAN/ Internet connection.

User Manuals are available on our website.

Our objective is to make digital signage software and custom-created-content so inexpensive that its affordable by even the smallest business. We create custom-made adverts in Flash from US$30 (so there’s movement and all those good things that get customer attention and promote action). Once again, it’s simple to order off our website.

Our users include many small & larger businesses, schools, not-for-profits etc. We can even boast that we have the Worlds Largest Casino as a user – The Venetian Macau Resort Hotel.

Digital signage is a great tool for businesses, and with our free digital signage software there’s no reason not to be using it.

The whole digital signage area has been moving ahead and had some uptake in its usage during the past two years but it certainly hasn’t been moving as fast as I thought it would based on what we were doing at Singleton OgilvyInteractive back in 2004.

Based on some recent research i have been doing, i think that the whole retail space is still sadly lacking in the uptake of really innovative advancements…things like digital paper, RFID integration (specifically loyalty systems) and simple good quality content authoring, management and distribution.

And i’m not just talking about the Australian market here but worlwide…where are the really innovative and sales driven advancements that i was starting to see on the horizen when i was interviewed for the article that this post was about?? Anyone care to share anything they have seen that pushes the boundries as we know them today??

Hi,
Questions from the uneducated! I am researching effective forms of shopfront advertising and have discovered “Digital Signage”. Can any one explain to me the different formats and is there any research on success rates. My only understanding is of this industry( is there an industry?) is the screen in our local “Drive Thru” bottle shop.
Thanks,
Spider

I saw this DDS thing your talking about too. Was by a company called AMI Technologies. They went LCD by the looks of it. They seem to be doing more than the advertising model than everyone else. Might be worth looking into.

End of last year we tested these for some fast moving adverts and found them to be better than most plasmas we tried. Just the fact they work so well in bright light is amazing.

Hi, Ive seen a couple of these things myself. Something called a DDS ? Dynamic Digital Signage. Seems pretty impressive. Any idea who makes it?

Hi Jason, the product to which you are refering is the LP Morgan POP Screen - and I agree, it looks awesome, way better than a Plasma and much cheaper. http://www.lpmorgan.com.au/products/pop/default.htm

Hi Mick,
Have you seen a product from Melbourne called a “POP” screen? It’s awesome and uses just a projector + screen to create a ‘floating image’ looks way better than plasma/lcd even in ambient light. Saw one in a retravision store in ringwood.
Thanks for the info on D.signage.

Is it illegal to post a link to someone else’s copyrighted web material?

Digital Signage is about ready to explode for a number of reasons.
1. The cost of displays is dropping rapidly and the threshold where ordinary people can afford them is rapidly being reached.
2. As costs drop, demand increases leading to higher volume, better manufacturing efficiencies and, even lower costs.
3. TiVo and other DVR technology will seriously hamper TV advertising. This forces advertisers to find other mediums.

My company, FrameRate, FrameRate, is working to provide products in this market.

Thanks to all that are creating blogs on this topic.
