DGScreen Ltd., an emerging provider of cloud-based digital signage systems, today announced the launch of their next generation digital signage media player – the DGBox-VGA.

DGBox-VGA is a dedicated media player designed specifically for digital signage delivering premium functionality including: HD-ready resolution (1280×720), zone-based layouts and scheduling, concurrent video broadcasts in 3 zones, Live TV broadcast, horizontal or vertical resolution and Broadcast Now functionality for emergency communications.

The DGBox-VGA unit is offered as part of DGScreen’s combined hardware/software solution available on a low cost SaaS model.  The DGScreen solution offers businesses of any size a comprehensive digital signage platform for: content creation; screen management; advanced scheduling; user management as well as real-time monitoring and reporting – all at an affordable price.

Francine Haliva, Director of Sales & Marketing, explained, “As a relatively new entrant to the digital signage scene we recognized that our flagship product wasn’t delivering all the functionality demanded by the market.  Now, only months after our initial launch we are proud to offer a full solution that not only delivers maximum functionality but thanks to the low-cost SaaS model is affordable to any size business.”

Francine continued, “To complement the improvements made to our media player, we have also improved the DGScreen software application.  A redesigned Dashboard gives users an overview of their digital signage network health and activity and an intuitive GUI enables anyone, regardless of experience, to quickly and easily create content, design screen layouts and begin broadcasting with ease.  Furthermore, recognizing that many businesses do not have the resources to hire external agencies to prepare content, we have incorporated Adobe™ After-Effects into our content creation tools enabling users to create original, dynamic and effective content simply and efficiently.  DGScreen is committed to continually improving our digital signage offering and the DGBox-VGA release is an example of that commitment.”

Forrester Research to keynote Digital Screenmedia Association webinar on mobile opportunities

0

Digital Screenmedia Association logoThe Digital Screenmedia Association will hold a webinar on Oct. 18 featuring Julie Ask of Forrester Research addressing the opportunities mobile devices provide to engage consumers.

The Digital Screenmedia Association (DSA) will host a free one-hour webinar at 12 noon Eastern on October 18 entitled “Mobile: Opportunities To Engage Consumers Throughout Their Journey.”

Julie Ask, vice president and principal analyst at Forrester Research, will provide the keynote presentation.Julie Ask

Session description:

Mobile will be the primary digital channel to engage with consumers in the future. The opportunities are incredible if the development and delivery of mobile services is done well. The majority of mobile professionals, however, focus on squeezing elements of their made-for-the-PC digital assets on to a small screen. This is a good starting point — but a bad long-term strategy. Mobile phones and tablets are evolving in ways that will make them unlike any PC we know today — and so the approach to delivering mobile services must evolve, too.

Attendees will learn:

  • How are consumers using mobile devices today? How is their use evolving?
  • How leaders in mobile are leveraging unique device features to meet consumer needs.
  • How mobile technologies will evolve to open up new opportunities to deliver contextual experiences.

Ms. Ask’s focus is on e-business and channel strategy. More specifically, her research covers telecommunications and consumer mobility. She has an end-to-end understanding of consumer wireless, encompassing consumer behavior, devices, networks, carrier strategy, content, applications, and mobile as a channel. As wireless broadband becomes ubiquitous, Of late, Ms. Ask is spending an increasing amount of time advising clients outside of the telecommunications industry on their opportunities to deliver products and services to consumers on mobile devices.

Jared Miller, managing director, self-service & emerging technology for United Airlines and DSA EVP – Mobile, will also speak during the webinar about DSA’s Mobile Council and other initiatives in the mobile space.

“Mobile devices are driving massive changes in the ways businesses and consumers interact,” said Brian Ardinger, SVP & chief marketing officer of Nanonation and current DSA president. “We’re excited to have Forrester share its insight on the mobile industry and the emerging trends affecting the digital screenmedia landscape.”

DSA is planning a series of webinars on mobile topics over the next year.
