Using Digital Signage for Emergency Notifications

 DS for emergency

Digital signage is most often associated with corporate advertising; however, more and more schools and universities are utilizing the technology in a much different way. For many campuses, digital signage has proved to be a simple and efficient way of communicating emergency notifications.

One such educational institution is West Virginia University. In the wake of the Virginia Tech shooting in 2007, WVU’s administration felt it was increasingly important to have an emergency notification solution on campus. By 2013, WVU had deployed nearly 120 digital signs, all ready to display emergency alerts, in addition to daily school updates. These displays were installed in key locations such as reception desks and cafeterias in various dorms, on platforms of the school’s monorail system, and outside of the basketball arena.

Since WVU’s digital signs are connected to media players, any content or information can be easily pushed to the displays over the campus LAN. In the event of any emergency, quickly getting information to the appropriate people is crucial. And in the event of an emergency, whether for weather alerts, earthquake warnings, or potential attacks, digital signage can offer an effective way of quickly communicating messages across a campus within a matter of seconds.

As seen in the case of West Virginia University, digital signage can be used for much more than just retail advertising, displaying a restaurant’s menu items, or broadcasting brand-specific messaging on video walls. Whether for K-12 schools or higher education institutions, digital signs can keep students and staff informed of important school information, as well as during emergency situations. For more information WVU’s digital signage installation, click here.

Does your school or campus utilize digital signage? Let us know here on the blog.

ViewSonic Delivers Tomorrow’s Thin Client Today; Announces First Virtual Desktop Client to Leverage Citrix XenMobile


 Citrix bestows ViewSonic’s suite of fully functional desktop thin clients with


‘Best of Synergy’ award


Anaheim, Calif. – May 22, 2013 ViewSonic Corp. announced today at Citrix Synergy™ the future of virtual desktop computing accessed via managed smart displays. Citrix has also named ViewSonic’s new solutions a ‘Best of Synergy’ award winner.

Leveraging a 25-year display heritage, ViewSonic has extended the Citrix XenMobile™ enterprise mobility management solution to its next generation of thin clients with its new line of smart displays. Citrix XenMobile gives IT organizations complete management and control of their mobile devices, apps, and data. ViewSonic’s new smart displays take advantage of this management and control by integrating XenMobile into its new devices, including the 24” SD-A245 and 22” SD-A225, to give IT organizations the ability to manage both their mobile and smart devices seemlessly.

“Citrix XenMobile supports the broadest array of new types of devices in the industry. ViewSonic’s SD-A245 and SD-A225 smart displays are a key example. Our collaboration with ViewSonic to pre-load XenMobile on the company’s smart displays allows IT to remotely secure and deliver apps and data on these new classes of devices,” said Amit Pandey, vice president and general manager, Mobile Platforms group at Citrix.

As enterprises develop and adopt mobile productivity apps that are changing the way they do business, IT organizations are driven to make significant investments in enterprise mobility solutions.  By extending these mobile solutions to smart displays running the Android operating system, enterprises can standardize on apps and mobile management tools for both mobile and smart devices, reducing IT complexity and streamlining costs.

“Through our relationship with Citrix, ViewSonic is helping IT organizations effectively extend their enterprise mobility investment to smart devices connecting to virtual desktops. At the same time, our display solutions allows users to access an extremely secure, locked down desktop that IT can easily manage. This new class of device changes the game in thin computing, delivering tomorrow’s thin client today. We are honored that Citrix has validated these efforts with a Best of Synergy award,” said Jeff Volpe, President of ViewSonic Americas.

In addition to the security and manageability features, low power consumption and access to virtual Windows applications and desktops found within a traditional thin client environment, the ViewSonic smart displays with Citrix XenMobile Enterprise benefit from:

  • The ability to natively run managed mobile applications, including Worx-enabled Android mobile apps, without putting demands on backend PC servers, in turn reducing network bandwidth

  • The ability to natively run multimedia, including types of video and media that a thin client typically cannot

  • The ability to provide single sign-on access to SaaS and web-based applications, simplifying the user experience while maintaining a secure and managed environment

  • A touch screen UI design, helping to facilitate the use of touch within software applications. This delivers users the modern interactive form factor of smartphones and tablets, but with a larger screen size for heightened productivity

  • Extended device management and control capabilities that allow enterprise IT staff to use the same mobile management solution, Citrix XenMobile Enterprise, to manage their smart displays and mobile devices, reducing complexity


ViewSonic’s award-winning 24” SD-A245 smart display with XenMobile will be showcased at the Citrix Synergy Los Angeles event May 22-24, 2013 at the Anaheim Convention Center. Both the SD-A245 and SD-A225 will be available in August at respective ESPs of $549 and $449.

ViewSonic Named to CRN’s 2013 5-Star Partner Program Guide


5-star designation in annual guide identifies the IT channel’s most elite vendor partner programs


WALNUT, Califórnia. – Março 25, 2013 – ViewSonic Corp., a leading global provider of computing, consumer electronics and communications solutions today announced it has once again been named to CRN’s 2013 Partner Program Guide, and awarded a 5-Star Partner rating. The CRN Partner Program Guide is the definitive listing of manufacturers and software publishers that service solution providers or provide products to the IT Channel. The guide recognizes those vendors who have channel programs and derive a portion of their sales through the indirect IT Channel. The 5-Star Partner Program rating recognizes an elite subset of Partner Program Guide vendors who give solution providers the best partnering elements in their channel programs.

The list methodology is based on objective criteria that takes into account each vendor’s investments in program offerings, partner profitability, partner training, education and support, marketing programs and resources, sales support and communication. Vendors are assessed using information provided in their completed applications.
For 25 years, ViewSonic has supported the channel across a range of vertical markets, consistently ensuring its programs are aligned with channel priorities. ViewSonic’s Finch Club program offers resellers streamlined access to resources to grow their businesses.

Tecnologias de toque tomam conta

A tecnologia Touch revolucionou a maneira como interagimos com nossos dispositivos de computação e se tornou a interface de usuário preferida. Tudo, desde caixas eletrônicos, bilheterias interativas, dispositivos POS, caça-níqueis e quiosques de informações, apresenta uma tela de toque interativa e fácil de usar. Vamos dar uma olhada em duas das tecnologias de toque mais comuns em uso atualmente.



Toque 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.

Toque capacitivo projetado
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.

Conclusão
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.

To find out how your business can benefit from touch technologies within any budget, contact ViewSonic for more information on its interactive multi-touch solutions.

ViewSonic Named 2013 CRN Channel Champion


Honored again as the Top Vendor in the Flat Panel Displays Category


WALNUT, Calif – March 13, 2013 – ViewSonic Corp., a leading global provider of computing, consumer electronics and communications solutions, was named a 2013 Channel Champion by CRN in the category of Flat Panel Displays 19”-30” at an awards ceremony during the XChange Solution Provider conference on March 12, 2013 in Orlando, FL. CRN’s annual Channel Champions awards are based on the results of a series of surveys conducted with top solution providers; the awards are presented to vendors receiving the best ratings in the areas of technological satisfaction, support satisfaction and financial benefits.

The CRN Channel Champions survey is the largest and broadest-based technology integrator market study in the industry, measuring the overall perceptions of vendor products and services by IT solution providers. The end result is a list of the most partner-friendly vendors in the channel, serving as a valuable resource for technology integrators when evaluating vendors and their programs.

“It is very rewarding that solution providers have again recognized ViewSonic with such a prestigious award,” said Sally Wang, vice president of product marketing at ViewSonic. “Everything we do, whether it be in product development, customer support, marketing communication, or end user agreements, we do with solution providers in mind in order to grow our businesses together. ViewSonic will continue its commitment to the solution provider community with our new and exciting line of cloud-enabled solutions, along with our wide portfolio of projectors, displays, digital signage, and interactive touch devices.”

“To receive a Channel Champion award is a distinct honor,” said Kelley Damore, Senior Vice President and Editorial Director, CRN. “The win is a testament to a vendor’s dedication to supporting and maintaining a strong channel program. As such, this award is a direct result of their ability to develop and grow solid, mutually beneficial relationships with partners. We congratulate these leading technology vendors on this recognition.”

A sample list of Channel Champions award winners and related study will be published in the April 2013 issue of CRN magazine and online at www.crn.com.
