Digital signage manufacturer Philips Signage Solutions and digital signage platform provider 11Giraffes announced that 11Giraffes' software has certified support for Philips new line of SoC commercial displays, featuring an internal quad-core Android media player, according to a press release from 11Giraffes. Using an Android OS means smarter, faster and more intuitive displays, the release said.
"We're very pleased to be working with 11Giraffes digital signage portfolio. Their products were easy for us to integrate into our new Android D Series professional monitors. Also, any questions from our side were answered quickly, and in a professional way. We look forward to continuing our work with 11Giraffes," said Mike Brooks, senior product manager for Philips.
11Giraffes' digital signage software platform is sold through a network of resellers and ad networks. It was designed to be sold through channels and to enable enterprises to utilize a digital signage web-based content management system to control their content and to allow for cost-effective solutions, the company said. 11Giraffes has a library of digital signage content templates, licensed images and videos, and licensed RSS news, weather, sports, finance, health and other feeds.
"Philips Digital Signage displays powered by embedded Android media players provide the market with a strong all-in-one solution making digital signage installations more efficient. Our proven and long-standing development on Android for both touch and non-touch digital signage applications made certifying the Philips integrated solution a no brainer," said Aaron Petrosky, vice president of corporate and business development for 11Giraffes.
