VBrick Systems streams digital signage in D.C. convention center
August 24, 2010
IP video technology company VBrick Systems today announced that Washington D.C.'s Walter E. Washington Convention Center has deployed a VBrick digital signage solution to combine video streaming and digital signage into one fully-integrated solution.
Responding to feedback from its visitors, the convention center decided it needed a more advanced communications technology to attract world-class events and attendees from around the world, according to the company's release. The center is using VBrick to stream digital signage content to 150 displays, including 60 high-definition flat panels, located throughout the convention center. This optimizes on-location communications for the hundreds of events, conferences and exhibitions spanning a variety of vertical industries and associations held in the space. The convention center is making full use of VBrick Systems' H.264 encoding products to enable immediate, end-to-end streaming of video without compromising image quality or network bandwidth.
Interactive solutions integrator EYETrans Media Communications engineered and integrated the VBrick Digital Signage solution for the convention center, and the two companies got the system up and running in the two weeks between product purchase and the opening day of the center's recent Microsoft Global Partners conference.
The convention center's new digital signage solution proved successful in keeping the conference's thousands of attendees abreast of breaking schedule and venue changes, the company says. With only two weeks between the purchase of the VBrick Digital Signage solution and the opening day of the conference, VBrick Systems and EYETrans Media Communications worked feverishly to install, test and bring the digital signs online. Conference attendees were able to use the system to critique the event and offer suggestions for the next iteration of the conference by sending and reading thousands of Tweets via the Digital Signage solution throughout the conference.
