Building on decades of experience in computing and communication, Acer has a complete technology offering supporting digital signage solutions, including hardware such as LFDs (Large Format Displays, up to 65 inches), PCs, and software and cloud services via its highly-scalable Build Your Own Cloud (BYOC) platform. This total solution offering combined with a global sales and support network makes Acer the ideal digital signage partner for system integrators (SI) and content providers.

Today’s digital signage solutions combine the power of technology to broadcast content at scheduled times, and allow content providers to push out changes across a network of displays almost instantaneously.

They are used to show a nearly unlimited variety of messages in public areas, such as timetables and at check-in information at airports and stations; directions or meeting notices at the reception and entrances of schools, hospitals, and hotels; special promotions and floor plans at retail stores, restaurants, entertainment venues, and more.

In Germany, Acer partners with local content and software providers to offer the DWIN digital signage solution available as a total lease package. Acer supplies DV series large format displays, and Veriton desktops as media players; Cittadino provides the picturemachine4 software that serves as the centralized scheduler and controller; and n-TV channel provides the up-to-date news headline content.

BYOC plays an integral role in Acer’s upcoming digital signage solutions, increasing scalability and flexibility for traditional one-way broadcasting signage solutions, and enabling a whole new series of interactive signage solutions through real-time connectivity and big data analytics.
