Enjoying the success 2015 brought, Videotel Digital announces a dynamic year in review. Specializing in digital solutions for retail, hospitality, restaurants, healthcare and educational as well as government agencies, the company shows its dexterity. They began the year with an award given at the first DSE show they attended. They ended it with an iconic So Cal company singing the praises of their newly launched product. Somewhere in between, they humbly managed to celebrate 35 successful years in business.

Awarded at DSE 2015 by rAVe Publications as the Best New Digital Signage Solution, it was there that Videotel demonstrated Elevate. The solution was newly launched along with Push, Move and Wave; these are interactive products that allow audiences to trigger relevant content. The interactive digital signage solutions work in tandem with the VP71 Industrial Grade Media Player also launched in 2015.

The VP71XD media player was a favorite of Videotel client, Queen’s Medical Center in Honolulu, Hawaii. They purchased it for their hospital rooms to increase patient experience. It was also selected by Cedarville University to create an impressive 40'x40' display at the three-day Southern Baptist Convention in Columbus, Ohio. At the same time, Fee Hedrick Entertainment Group began using the digital media player to amp up their audiences’ experience during its largest live conferences.

The year also saw the release of the VP70 LTE and the VP70 XD. Both designed for heavy commercial use the players can auto-loop any type of media to engage audiences wherever high traffic and dense customer populations congregate. Impressive HD content thrills in cinemas, shopping centers, trade shows, or conference rooms. Such is the case for iconic footwear manufacturer Rainbow Sandals who uses it to auto-loop branding and informational content from a USB with “plug and play” functionality.

Possibly the best 2015 milestone however, was Videotel’s celebration of 35 years in business meeting the digital media needs of both large and small clients. In 2016 watch for the company’s new HD2700 series with industrial looping DVD players as well as the industrial DVD and media player combo unit.

With a built-in scheduler and increased capability for interactivity, the digital signage player brings reliable and seamless functionality to the marketplace

SAN DIEGO, CA - Videotel Digital announces the release of the market’s first industrial grade seamless auto looping DVD and Digital media player combo unit with a built-in scheduler to time content and with interactivity. Eager with increased functionality for public venues, the new product’s scheduler is designed to automatically power on, auto play and seamlessly auto loop content. Better yet, it will auto repeat without manual interaction. Now specified content can play at integral times throughout the day with no human engagement. Or, for a hands-on approach, it can also become an interactive signage player. This is easily done with the addition of LED push buttons, motion and proximity sensors. Meant to engage and inform any audience, on any level, the HD2700M is a reliable solution with durability as its finest.

Designed for 24/7 continuous use and with an estimated lifespan of over six years, the Videotel all-in-one media player is unmatched. It plays full native 1080p HD video and with a built in upscaler.

Schneider says, “The HD2700 M is perfect for those displays that require the flexibility of displaying content with a DVD, USB or SD card reliability and with a true seamless auto loop, timed content or interactive content. It just doesn't get any easier with the HD2700 M."

Timed scheduling of various content files is easily achieved with the creation of a simple text file. The file can have start and stop times and should be loaded on the same DVD, SD or USB as the video files. Using a seven day calendar, specific playback is triggered by simply inputting specific days of the week. Or, the dvd/media player can be told to run the content all day every day. And leaving no stone unturned, the scheduler can power the Videotel digital media player on and off according to a set time as well.

Rockford, Illinois - GDS, Inc. (Global Display Solutions), a world leader in display technology for outdoor digital signage, has been selected for an Applied Technology Award by QSR Magazine. The accolade for customer facing technology is for the largest installation of large format QSR outdoor digital displays which are currently being rolled out at all Starbucks drive-thru locations in the U.S. The 46” LCD screens create camera to camera interaction similar to FaceTime® resulting in an improved barista / customer connection.

The majority of QSR sales are derived from the drive-thru lane and Starbucks recognized the need to bring the barista to the customer’s car through the use of digital technology.

There were two main challenges. The first was posed by the outdoor environment requiring a display that could withstand extreme heat without the noise and interference of an air conditioner while protecting against rain, dust, cold and snow. The second challenge was to improve customer satisfaction by the creation of face time with the barista. To drive increased loyalty, Starbucks needed to re-vamp the ‘old school’ signage in the drive-thru.

GDS was chosen by Starbucks due to its proven field operation and front-of-screen performance. The sunlight readable, full outdoor LCD displays with an integrated camera and microphone are being deployed in the Starbucks drive-thru lanes and are designed and manufactured to withstand the worst of Mother Nature. Replicating the in-store experience through technology, a live video feed of the barista coupled with order confirmation and advertising on one screen maximizes utilization of these digital screens, increases customer interaction and improves efficiency.

We Know Outdoor!

GDS MIDAS QSR outdoor displays are designed to operate efficiently under full sunlight conditions without the adverse effects of solar loading on the LCD panel. MIDAS QSR is designed to operate 24/7 and includes a built-in diagnostic system to monitor the operational performance of the display. The GDS LCD displays are designed and manufactured to withstand the rigors of rain, snow, heat, cold, dust and extreme temperature ranges. They feature optical bonding, thermal management, and remote diagnostics to monitor the display from a central location and are engineered so customers with polarized sunglasses can easily read the screen.

About GDS

Since more than 35 years, we provide perfect digital display performance at lowest total cost of ownership based on LCD TFT, LED and E Ink technologies. For every display we develop, we are passionately committed to deliver total customer satisfaction in design, manufacturing, installation and lifetime support.

GDS stands out from the competition, always innovating its technologies and products, and also its organization and how we meet our customers’ needs: it is not just innovation, but innovation shaped around our customers. That is why we are continuously improving and investing in new solutions and applications, to help our partners grow and evolve.

Universal modular LED mounting system with pop-out functionality is first of its kind on the market

AURORA, Ill.– Peerless-AV®, the leader in innovative mounting and audio and video solutions and accessories, today announced the industry’s first Universal Modular LED Wall Mounting System. Featuring a quick and easy pop-out mechanism that can be adapted to support various brands and display sizes, Peerless-AV’s LED Wall Mounting System also offers a modular design enabling custom installs for specific configurations.

The universal nature of the LED Wall Mounting System will give installers infinite choices as they look to specify more full-color, high brightness, big viewing angle LED displays in their projects.

“LED is becoming an integral part of the AV industry and with our commitment to being at the forefront of audiovisual technology, we’re excited to unveil our new LED Mounting System,” said John Potts, President, Peerless-AV. “To develop the best solution available, we’ve worked closely with customers and LED experts to ensure versatility and compatibility for individual application scenarios.”

Key features of the Universal Modular LED Wall Mounting System include a clean and aesthetically pleasing installation based on a slim, space-saving design. The pop-out mechanism extends the mount 30 inches from the wall, providing ample space for a technician to service and maintain the LED displays. Its universal design can be easily configured to support most LED brands and sizes by simply changing out display-specific adapter plates.

The mounting system’s easy hang wall plate enables a fast, trouble-free installation and handles on either side of the mount provide easy mount articulation without the risk of damage to the LED display. In addition, integrated cable management allows for a clean finish.

Adjustment to the LED Mounting System is simple and installer-friendly. A jacking screw feature allows the entire video wall to be plumb adjusted once all the LED displays are installed. Each mount has four-corner depth adjustment and a first row levelling function assures all the LED displays align for a seamless appearance.

Peerless-AV’s Universal Modular LED Mounting System will be available for custom order through its network of distributors and resellers in Q2 2016.

This new innovation can be seen at ISE 2016 – Hall 11, Stand E70. Visitors to the stand will be given a VIP tour, including presentation of an impressive 5x4 video wall using Absen LED panels mounted on the modular system.

The Universal Modular LED Wall Mounting System, featuring a Christie Digital 1.5 mm 12-panel LED wall,will also be on display at DSE 2016 in March at Peerless-AV Booth 1823.

SAN DIEGO, CA - Videotel receives yet another rave review from a satisfied customer. In the habit of providing digital signage media players that can create dynamic visuals that wow viewers, BANG! Creative has named Videotel their top supplier. To that end, the exhibit designer has most recently enlisted the help of the manufacturer’s VP70XD media players for the State of California.

The VP70XD is perfect for BANG! Creative as their services entail providing signage with major impact for venues such as museums, agricultural exhibits, visitor centers and the like. Particularly impactful at cultural or science centers, or planning sites, the company stakes its business on a well known fact; there’s only one chance to make a first impression. Hence their descriptive name.

George Bralla from BANG! Creative Inc. recently said of their relationship with the Southern California industrial media player manufacturer, "BANG! Creative Inc., as a leading interpretive exhibit designer and builder, has used Videotel media players in several unique exhibits for the State of California Department of Water Resources and the Department of Parks & Recreation. The players have worked perfectly and reliably under heavy use. We plan to keep Videotel as our number one supplier of media equipment.”

The VP70XD digital signage media player seamlessly auto loops video, audio, images and photo content directly from a USB or SD card. The industrial media player will seamlessly auto loop a mix of file types while incorporating audio files as background sound. This feature is highly useful as it eliminates the need for an audio extractor. Interactive throughout any experience it facilitates, the VP70XD also allows for various slide show transitions. This increases the number of effects that can be utilized and translated into an eye catching experience for the viewer. The VP70XD retails for $298.

The majority of sales are derived from the drive-thru lane and QSR’s recognize the need to bring the store experience to the customer’s car through the use of digital technology.

There are two main challenges with an interactive, outdoor installation. The first is posed by the outdoor environment requiring a display that can withstand extreme heat without the noise and interference of an air conditioner while protecting against rain, dust, cold and snow. The second challenge is to improve customer satisfaction by the creation of face time with the store employee.

GDS’s interactive drive-thru solution has proven field operation and front-of-screen performance. The sunlight readable, full outdoor LCD display with an integrated camera and microphone are available now to deploy in drive-thru lanes and are designed and manufactured to withstand the worst of Mother Nature. Replicating the in-store experience through technology, a live video feed of the store employee can be coupled with order confirmation and advertising on one screen to maximize utilization of these digital screens, increase customer interaction and improve efficiency.

We Know Outdoor!

GDS MIDAS QSR outdoor displays are designed to operate efficiently under full sunlight conditions without the adverse effects of solar loading on the LCD panel. MIDAS QSR is designed to operate 24/7 and includes a built-in diagnostic system to monitor the operational performance of the display. The GDS LCD displays are designed and manufactured to withstand the rigors of rain, snow, heat, cold, dust and extreme temperature ranges. They feature optical bonding, thermal management, and remote diagnostics to monitor the display from a central location and are engineered so customers with polarized sunglasses can easily read the screen.

Partnership expands availability of ADTI’s innovative new display technology to commercial sign contractors across the nation.

Temecula, CA – LED digital display manufacturer ADTI Media LLC has announced a distribution partnership with Tubelite, the nation’s leading distributor of products and services for the commercial sign industry. The partnership will increase supply and support to meet a growing demand for the innovative display technologies manufactured by ADTI.

“It’s an exciting partnership for us because of the unique design features of ADTI Media’s SKYPANEL™ display systems,” states Greg McCarter, Chief Operating Officer for Tubelite. “Most digital displays are custom built by manufacturers for each installation, but SKYPANEL™ displays are part of a modular system that lets sign contractors build their own displays, regardless of the size. This gives our customers more flexibility while exceeding the expectations of end-users.”

SKYPANEL™ has been engineered to meet the current and future needs of the outdoor digital signage and billboard advertising markets. These display systems weigh much less than traditional LED displays, allowing them to be easily installed at almost any location or mounted to almost any surface. The highly energy-efficient design requires dramatically less energy consumption, as much as 60% less compared to other LED displays on the market. The product offers maximum ease of installation for commercial sign contractors, while providing sign owners with a lower initial capital investment, and significant energy and cost savings over the long run.

“The distribution partnership with Tubelite makes a lot of sense,” says Greg Littlefield, Vice President of Sales for ADTI Media. “Our product was specially designed to give commercial sign contractors a cost effective alternative compared to traditionally built digital displays. With Tubelite’s nationwide presence and their 87-year reputation in the commercial sign industry, the partnership will equip commercial sign contractors with the resources and flexibility they need to quickly compete on digital sign projects.”

The SKYPANEL™ system is an American made product, manufactured in ADTI’s ISO 9001 certified factory in Southern California. The system was designed to meet the quality, performance and cost requirements of Lamar Outdoor, one of the nation’s largest billboard advertising companies. The product underwent numerous enhancements, providing not only long term energy cost savings, but also ease of service and reliability. Since its launch into the commercial sign market, SKYPANEL™ LED digital displays have been installed across the globe, and have quickly become a popular choice for sign contractors looking for a versatile product that can ship in days, while accommodating virtually any installation size.

The partnership with Tubelite makes it faster and easier for commercial sign contractors to order product and get local support across the nation. The SKYPANEL™ digital LED display system will be available through Tubelite beginning early 2016. For more information on product availability and ordering, visit www.tubelite.com.
