SENSE digital signage solution unveiled

May 10, 2016

Videotel Digital, a manufacturer of industrial digital signage media players, industrial DVD players and interactive digital signage solutions, unveiled its SENSE Solution in March at Digital Signage Expo 2016 in Las Vegas.

The SENSE Solution caught the attention of passersby who, when seeing a video, walked closer to the Videotel booth, according to a company press release. This engagement signaled SENSE to trigger new, specialized images that "talked to" them about Videotel’s newest signage solution.

"What a great place to prove the capability of this product at the digital signage industry's biggest annual event," said Lisa Schneider, vice president of marketing and sales for Videotel. "We knew we were on to something when attendees lingered completely engaged by the futuristic component of this digital signage proximity sensor. SENSE is a game-changer because it optimizes the viewer’s experience in a conversational way."

With its ability to know proximity, the SENSE interactive digital signage solution has a smart sensor that detects human distance. Useful for a display, kiosk, end cap or a venue's general area, users can loop an "attract" video until someone approaches, according to the announement. When the desired distance from the display screen is reached, SENSE will trigger a different video with more informative content.

Targeting areas that are frequented, of special use and in need of sensory digital signage, SENSE provides a human aspect to exhibits. It will even say goodbye when the viewer walks away from the interactive video display, the release stated. The programmable SENSE Solution IR sensor has a sensitivity range of 3 to 18 feet. SENSE is used in tandem with the VP71XD Interactive Digital Signage Player. Together the digital signage media player and sensory solution retail for $493.
