Si bien los televisores en las habitaciones de hoteles, restaurantes y bares de deportes parecen similares a los televisores tradicionales del hogar, un televisor de grado comercial tiene mucha más funcionalidad. Los televisores utilizados en entornos de hotelería requieren funciones que no solo necesitan satisfacer las necesidades de aquellos que en definitiva los miran y los disfrutan, sino que además tienen que satisfacer las necesidades del sitio que los instala y los mantiene. Para tal propósito, los sitios de hotelería se beneficiarán de una solución de entretenimiento que proporciona lo siguiente:

• Durabilidad: con hasta 15 horas de uso continuo por día, así como retroiluminación LED con vida útil de más de 30.000 horas, una pantalla de grado comercial puede resistir un uso continuo a largo plazo, con lo cual se reduce el costo total de propiedad.


• Sintonizador de HDTV integrado: los TV de grado comercial vienen con un sintonizador de HDTV ATSC/NTSC y resolución de 1080p Full HD para ofrecer programación de TV en alta definición para una mejor experiencia del huésped. El sintonizador integrado ofrece a los televidentes más opciones de contenido al proporcionarles una más amplia gama de canales de HDTV, como canales para negocios, deportes, educación, películas, etc.


• Control de varios dispositivos: los televisores con un puerto RS232 y paso IR ofrecen control local para decodificadores y otros dispositivos conectados, directamente con el control remoto del televisor, en lugar de necesitar varios controles para cada dispositivo.


• Configuración de hotelería programable: con configuración programable, se pueden instalar fácilmente varios televisores en forma simultánea para tener las mismas funciones personalizadas como canales predeterminados, control parental, niveles de audio, etc.


• Características de clonación y reproducción por USB: no solo se pueden cargar fotos y música al televisor a través de una unidad USB, sino que las mismas fotos y música se pueden duplicar convenientemente en varios televisores a través del televisor principal.


• Conectividad versátil: con una amplia selección de entradas como HDMI, USB y VGA, así como entradas compuesta y componente, se puede conectar una variedad de equipos digitales en el televisor y proporcionar opciones de instalación más flexibles.



Con estas características necesarias y específicas para hotelería, es fácil ver por qué un gerente de un restaurante o gerente de TI de un hotel no puede simplemente ir a una megatienda de electrónica y comprar los televisores necesarios para sus necesidades específicas.




Con más de 25 años como líder galardonado de tecnología de visualización, ViewSonic® ofrece lo último en tecnología innovadora de televisores para hotelería para satisfacer las necesidades de cualquier entorno de hotelería.

La tecnología táctil ha revolucionado la forma de interactuamos con nuestros dispositivos informáticos, y se ha convertido en la interfaz de usuario predilecta. Todo desde los cajeros automáticos, boleterías interactivas, dispositivos para puntos de venta, máquinas tragamonedas y quioscos de información tienen una pantalla táctil interactiva fácil de usar. Analicemos dos de las tecnologías táctiles más comunes en uso hoy en día.



Panel táctil óptico
Optical touch technology utilizes two or more image sensors that are usually placed around the edges of a display. These sensors allow the touch surface to recognize two contact points simultaneously, and provide users with direct interaction by allowing two-finger gestures such as zoom in/out, rotations, and two-finger taps. Because of optical touch’s scalability, versatility, and affordability, it is becoming a popular technology for use on large format displays.

The experience offered by optical touch is responsive and accurate, and does not require a conductive object for touch recognition. As such, this technology is extremely useful in gloved environments such as hospitals and dental offices, or for use with interactive stylus pens. Touch screens equipped with Dual Point Optical Touch are also versatile solutions for use in classroom settings, home entertainment and gaming, or as a Point of Sale device in retail stores, and even as an information kiosk.

Función táctil capacitiva proyectada
Projected Capacitive is one of the leading touch technologies available and is widely utilized by mobile devices such as smart phones and tablets. Projected capacitive touch screens feature a grid pattern of conductive materials layered within multiple sheets of glass. The conductive grid creates an electrostatic field, so when the screen is touched by a conductive object (i.e. a finger), the touch is recorded by measuring the overall change in capacitance.

Projected Capacitive Touch is a true multi-touch technology, allowing for 3 or more simultaneous touch points on the screen. With the system’s ability to detect and resolve 10 or more touches at the same time, the accuracy and touch experience is dramatically improved for the user. Because of its speed, efficiency, and intuitiveness, Projected Capacitive Touch is becoming the technology of choice for current generation touch screens and interactive displays. It is more expensive due to the complex electronics and sensor construction and since it requires input from a conductive device, such as a finger, it is not suited for environments with gloved hands.

Touch screens equipped with capacitive touch are best utilized for multi-user applications such as gaming, or interactive whiteboards for use in educational settings. In addition, capacitive touch screens are an ideal solution for businesses seeking the ultimate in interactive displays and digital signage. Capacitive touch displays can be used to attract and engage customers in high-traffic areas such as high-end retail centers, transportation hubs, and hotel lobbies.

Conclusión
Optical Touch technology is scalable, versatile, and affordable, and best utilized for single-user applications such as POS devices, desktop displays, or for use within the gloved environments of the medical and dental fields.

Projected Capacitive Touch technology is an ideal choice for multi-user applications where interactivity and collaboration are needed, such as in classrooms. Additionally, Projected Capacitive touch can be of benefit to commercial applications as well such as interactive digital signage.

With 25 years of expertise as a leader and innovator of display technology, ViewSonic has a complete line of interactive and ergonomic touch displays to meet any need. ViewSonic’s TD20 series of touch displays feature super accurate and responsive Dual Point Optical Touch technology. ViewSonic’s TD40 series of touch displays are all Windows® 8 certified and feature 10-Point Capacitive touch technology. All of the TD20 and TD40 touch displays feature a 7H scratch-resistant surface hardness to ensure a consistent, high-quality touch experience even in high-traffic areas.

La tecnología de proyectores ha evolucionado, y ahora proporciona una mejor calidad de imagen y opciones de conexión ampliadas. Además de las conexiones con cable tradicionales (VGA/DVI/HDMI), ahora se puede mostrar contenido desde una memoria miniatura y conexiones inalámbricas. Los recientes avances tecnológicos han hecho que la conectividad inalámbrica sea mucho más simple y potente. Un proyector es una necesidad de todos los profesionales de negocios al hacer presentaciones en la oficina o sobre la marcha. Así que no pase los primeros minutos de su reunión ubicando y colocando los cables, empujando conexiones sueltas o verificando clavijas dobladas. En cambio, esté listo para la presentación con un proyector inalámbrico.

 

Usar un proyector inalámbrico tiene muchos beneficios, entre ellos:

• Los presentadores ya no están limitados a una pequeña área junto al proyector. Ahora tienen la libertad de sentarse en cualquier lugar de la sala, por lo general dentro de 30 pies de distancia del proyector (se requiere el campo visual para mantener la calidad de la señal).


• El proyector se puede compartir con varias computadoras en la sala, lo que fomenta la colaboración en equipo.


• El presentador, al conectar de forma inalámbrica su dispositivo móvil al proyector, puede caminar por la sala con su dispositivo para interactuar y relacionarse con el público.


• Los presentadores no necesitan llevar consigo sus cables de conexión mientras viajan.

Algunos factores que las empresas deben considerar al usar un proyector inalámbrico incluyen:

 

• El ancho de banda inalámbrico requerido para presentaciones con transmisión de video.


• El alcance de la señal WiFi necesario para una sala de gran tamaño.


• La estabilidad de la conectividad inalámbrica que puede afectar la calidad de la imagen.

When all these aspects are verified, wireless projectors can deliver great conveniences for businesses, especially for mobile presenters.

 

Is your business ready to take advantage of the benefits wireless projectors have to offer? What other wireless solutions do you use in your business operation? Tell us on the blog.

Digital signage solution with facial recognition capabilities are being made possible with recent advancements in cameras, processing power and application software. Facial recognition is a turn-key solution that shifts customer engagements from static to proactive, helping retailers interact in a way never before possible. “Sense of sight” intelligence allows a digital sign to extract visual data to gauge the audiences’ gender and age, and associate the results with an advertisement designed for that specific audience. This helps retailers not only deliver more targeted messaging but also translates to a more pleasurable customer experience, longer dwell time and increased engagement.

A South Korean company, SK Telecom, has launched a digital signage solution with facial recognition in a shopping mall in Korea across twenty-six digital signage displays strategically placed at various locations throughout the mall. In preparation for the launch, SK Telecom included 5,000 facial images and an additional 1,000 pieces of key facial features (facial shape, wrinkles, and distance between eyes) associated with age and sex identification in the control pool.  The company plans to spend three to six months to collect traffic volume and pattern information before approaching advertisers to customize ads based on sex and gender.

Intel also launched Intel® Audience Impression Metrics Suite (Intel® AIM Suite) for digital signage solutions; it integrates three intelligent software programs to deliver  impression metrics: Intel® AIM View collects audience demographic data, detects content viewed and viewing duration; Intel® AIM Analytics analyzes the data into a granular level and outputs into easy to understand graphs/charts and CSV formats; Intel® AIM Manage is a sensor management system that remotely manages the operation via the cloud. In addition, to protecting audience privacy, AIM Suite does not record facial images or personal information about the viewer.

Facial recognition technology helps advertisers (from automotive to cosmetics industries) generate more ROI from affectively communicating specific messages within target audiences. ViewSonic is excited about this trend and will continue to evaluate its market potential as it gains momentum. For more information on digital signage solutions, click here.

As we multitask our way through our busy day, why not grocery-shop as we wait for the subway or train? This is what drove Tesco and Peapod to provide virtual grocery stores aimed at on-the-go commuters.

Virtual Grocery Stores are large displays (bill boards or digital signage display) with life sized pictures of common grocery items. Below each item, there is a unique QR barcode associated with the product for shoppers to purchase on the spot with their smartphones and schedule deliveries.

Tesco (South Korea and UK) and Peapod (US) have deployed these virtual grocery stores at public transit hubs like at the airports, subways/train stations, and bus stops, where tens of thousands of commuters gather, to deliver convenient grocery shopping between wait times. Tesco in South Korea and Peapod in US have adopted the static billboard platform, while Tesco in UK deployed interactive digital signage  for a cleaner look and smaller footprint.

According to Tesco, mobile revenue has more than doubled in the past 12 months. Interactive Media in Retail Group projects mobile commerce (m-commerce) to make up around 15% of all online sales by the end of 2012. In addition, a Nielsen survey found that 61% of respondents already use the internet to shop for groceries and one quarter of them plans to purchase groceries online in the next 6 months.

Is the virtual grocery store the next frontier to food shopping for our families in this digital era? We think so. So many commodities are already being purchased online; the virtual grocery store will be one more convent way to tackle our daily to-do list on-the-go and free up our time. We anticipate the static billboard to be upgraded to interactive digital signage very soon as this solution is a much more efficient way to deploy, mange, and lower TCO for business owners.

Digital signage solutions provide excellent revenue and margin opportunities for VARs who target the restaurant or QSR vertical. Nowadays, the VAR can benefit by selling signage as a total solution. This is due to the fact that there is margin opportunity in the hardware, installation, potential network configuration, service, and in some cases, content development.

The opportunity for digital signage sales has grown tremendously, and is broader than ever before. Here are just a few of the ways that your customers may be looking to implement these solutions:



Restaurants: We are especially seeing an increase in signage adoption rates by restaurant customers as prices come down and ease of use and simplicity increases. The most common restaurant application is the presentation of menu selections combined with government required nutritional information. This information can be updated in real-time with the use of simple digital signage content management solutions. In addition, promotional information can be added in the case of seasonal menu changes.

Employee training: New opportunities are becoming available with the use of network digital signage in the back office for employee training. Training content can be sent over the internet (WAN) for use by individual restaurant location. This adds benefits to the restaurant owners with lower insurance rates as well as provides the VAR another area of possible margin income.

Retail: Another growing opportunity as the prices and solutions become more affordable is retail. We are seeing smaller screen deployments as consumer information is moving closer to the display case. We have seen this at the POS cash out for some time, for example. We are also beginning to see smaller screen deployments such as 10-, 22-, and 32-inch in retail locations advertising product highlights and benefits. VARs can again benefit by targeting the retail signage vertical with a total solution that consists of screen, content management, network solutions — wired and wireless, and installation services. There are a category of VARs we call systems integrators that specialize in this kind of new business.

While these are the key areas driving today’s digital signage adoption, with the emerging array of add-on solutions (such as integrated mobile device credit card process and audience demography video analytics), the possibilities of digital signage are endless. To learn more about digital signage solutions, read here. How has digital signage helped to grow your business? What are your experiences with POP? Share with us here on the blog.

The face of digital signage is rapidly changing, and its advancements in technology are pushing progression right along. Have you heard the term Open Pluggable Specification (OPS)? OPS architecture ties the digital signage ecosystem together with standardized interoperable hardware interface to drive effective component design, development and simplified integration complexity for lower implementation, deployment and management costs. An initiative from Intel®, OPS is a new technology concept that emerged about a year ago.

 



The OPS architecture modularizes the development of digital signage display panels and media players, thereby minimizing the implementation time for installation and eliminating other system complexities. While this clean solution ultimately benefits the integrator and end users, so far, only a few companies have adopted OPS technology. This is likely because people are accustomed to using an external media player (or PC) to run their media content on the signage display. Until the integrators and end users become more and more familiar with the benefits of OPS and industry demand increases, we believe it will still take some time before manufacturers and display OEMs adopt this new standard. However, with a company like Intel serving as the driving force behind this technology, things look very hopeful. Intel has launched multiple scalable intelligent software applications to enhance OPS display capabilities, such as Active Management Technology (AMT), Audience Impression Metrics Suite (AIM), Anonymous Video Analytics (AVA) and Near-Field Communication (NFC).

 

Will OPS architecture adaptation become successful? Only time will tell, but we believe in the benefits it provides.
