Eyeris Networks announced that it is offering franchise opportunities for its Eyeris TV Franchise, a network of intelligent large digital displays strategically placed in high-traffic venues such as restaurants, coffee shops and fitness centers. Franchise opportunities are available in most U.S. states and Canada, the company says.
Eyeris says its TV franchise owners will be able to create and operate their own in-store TV advertising network in their own exclusive territory, using informative and entertaining programming — such as national news, weather forecasts, sports, local events, upcoming movie trailers, celebrity gossip, travel destinations, health tips and more — provided by a suite of Eyeris Networks' content partners, including Sony Pictures, MSNBC, CNN, E!, HBO, Eventful, the Travel Channel and more.
Founder and CEO J.R. Alaoui says Eyeris TV is the "first and only in-store TV network franchise company that uses facial recognition technology for audience measurement." The company says its proprietary software provides advertisers with real-time reliable statistical data, classifying viewers by gender, age group and average attention time and providing total number of viewers per month, day, week, hour, minute and even per second.
