Digital signage consultancy company Saturn Visual Solutions plans to release SaturnSelect, enabling businesses to use a tablet or mobile phone to interrupt the company's scheduled on-screen content and select and show the content they want, then revert to the scheduled content, according to a company press release.

Businesses can curate and upload content on demand to the SaturnSelect app. Staff can then download the application onto an internet-enabled device. They can pick the content they want from a list displayed on the app and show it on the company's digital signage screens.

"For too long, the way we publish on-screen content has restricted how businesses use digital signage," Chris Welsh, CEO at Saturn Visual Solutions, said in the release. "This is because content has had to be selected and scheduled in advance, so we couldn't be responsive. SaturnSelect allows sales professionals to show videos, images, graphs, charts and diagrams on screens in line with the conversation they're having at the time."

The SaturnSelect application can control an unlimited number of screens simultaneously. It can be used with any size or format of digital signage screen, and with outdoor displays, where screens are housed in secure enclosures.

"We're not aware of anything else on the market like SaturnSelect, which was developed during the lockdown, and the Retail Technology Show will be the first time we demonstrate it publicly," Welsch said. "We're aiming to add more functionality to it in the coming months, for example, enabling people to pick both the content and the screen they want to see it on, so we'll be keen to see what response it gets from retailers visiting the show."

Saturn will also be showcasing new functionality that it's added to its content management software platform, SaturnVision, which enables businesses to show live social media content on screen and a new technical product configurator.

Saturn Visual Solutions is a digital signage consultancy which offers a range of design, build, content and support services. Saturn manages more than 20,000 screens across the U.K. and is based in Manchester, England.
