X2O Media recently announced its membership in Crestron's Integrated Partner Program.
To enhance the end-user experience, X2O's Xpresenter digital signage platform delivers an interactive channel featuring dynamic graphics and content to Crestron's touch screens, while for Crestron's boardroom touch screens, Xpresenter Live provides informative PowerPoint presentations that include speaker information, links to live data sources, video feeds and more.
X2O's Xpresenter is an end-to-end platform designed to make creating, managing, and distributing broadcast-quality content on networks of all sizes available to all, the company says. Xpresenter's patented authoring module allows Microsoft PowerPoint users to produce graphics that incorporate animations, smart objects, video clips, and real-time data sources — all without ever leaving the PowerPoint interface. Through the Integrated Partner Program, this same content can be easily displayed on Crestron's touch panels.
For Crestron's boardroom touchpanels, Xpresenter Live turns PowerPoint presentations into multimedia productions. Users simply plug their laptop and a projector into Xpresenter Live, and their presentation immediately comes to life with full-motion video, 3-D logos and animation, and other dynamic elements. Integrating a Crestron touch panel allows users to instantly turn presentation elements on and off, trigger animations or switch between predefined template layouts. Xpresenter Live includes a library of professionally-designed screen layouts that can be customized to match an organization's brand identity.
