Australia's Bunning's stores to launch 750-screens through Aeris solutions

December 2, 2009

Bunnings Group Ltd has chosen Aeris Solutions to supply the 750 LCDs and media players required for aisle-end displays in 160 stores across Australia and New Zealand.

Bunnings goal was to implement a solution that would offer all the features of a networked system, including multiple playlists, scheduled playback and automatic content updating, without having to install the network infrastructure typically required for a project of this size. The network will instead run on the "sneakernet" model, where store employees deliver content via flash drives to each screen.
 

Aeris Solutions says it will use the Viewstream 300 media player by Digital View for the project. Each Viewstream 300 will be attached to a 22-inch LCD monitor via a custom-built housing attached to the rear of the LCD.

Bunnings' marketing department, located in Hawthorn, Victoria, will create all the content-management files required, then upload these files along with the new content to their main server. These files are then downloaded to each store via Bunnings current FTP network infrastructure. Once the information is delivered to each store it is a simple case of copying the content folder to a USB memory stick. A Bunnings team member simply plugs this USB memory drive into each media player and waits while all new files are automatically updated.
