How Schools Are Using Indoor Digital Signage to Inform Parents and Students

School districts all over the US are using indoor Digital Signage to get the word out about their school or school districts activities.  In a majority of the public, private and charter schools in the US, hundreds of parents and students pass through the main office and hallways in any given week. Many schools and districts are taking advantage of this foot traffic and purchasing LCD screens to visually share information with students, parents, teachers and all campus guests. The great thing about this form of Digital Signage is that it can be easily moved from one location to another, information can be updated using special software and scheduled weeks in advance, screens can be hung on a wall or used with a pedestal and multiple sections can display different information all at the same time. Many LCD screens scan even show LIVE web feeds such as weather, stocks, headline news, etc in addition to custom content.

LCD Screens with Custom Content Reduce Perceived Wait Times!

Businesses such as doctor/dentist offices, hospital waiting rooms, oil change lobbies, restaurants, etc are seeing increased customer satisfaction simply by installing easy to use digital signage in their waiting areas.  Guests are receiving information that is informative, educational and sometimes interactive while they are waiting for their services thus reducing their perceived wait times.  I sat with my young child at his pediatric dentist appointment the other day and was shocked how long he sat still!  The lobby had two LCD screens with custom content: one for children and the other for parents.  The screens were able to show a variety of content such as cartoons, pictures of children who had had dental work done at that location, pictures of the toys they offer after the child is done with their procedure, local/national news, stock feeds, weather conditions, traffic information, health quizzes, etc.  With the variety of information showed, it was easy to not get bored waiting for our name to be called. The dental office also had sold advertising space to other local businesses and quickly paid for their digital signage! Digital signage is the easiest way to advertise, promote or simply entertain your visitors! I wish all waiting areas had digital signage!

LCD high definition screens with custom content

Digital signage in the form of high definition LCDs with custom content is popping up everywhere. Personally, I have seen them in Churches, Banks, Retail stores, Hotels and Restaurants. This form of advertising works and it pays for itself in a short amount of time. Many companies are even getting other businesses to sponsor or rent out time on their screens thus reducing the cost to themselves. The clarity is second to none on these LCD high definition screens. The data or information delivered can be changed at a moments notice. Restaurants use them to display several delicious looking menu items or Specials of the Day. The words "Surf and Turf" written on a menu just can't compete with a picture of a juicy, thick steak and a huge lobster tail with butter sauce drizzled over it and a mouth watering side of mashed potatoes and steamed vegetables! See what I mean?! Churches and Banks are now using digital signage LCD high definition screens with custom content to inform members or customers of special events, low rates, sermon schedules, etc. The possibilities are endless when one uses digital signage as a form of advertising. No other form of marketing is as powerful!

How Digital Poster Boards Can Improve and Attract Attention!

Digital poster boards are making a statement everywhere they are found: malls, hotels, restaurants, bars, retail stores, airports, train stations, etc.  Standard paper posters are just not eye catching, they cannot change their message so after a few days they are just down right boring.  Digital Poster boards can be placed anywhere such as on a wall, hung from a ceiling or even displayed using a floor stand.  The color and graphics are fantastic and extremely eye-catching and interesting to view.  Several messages can be displayed throughout the day, therefore informing guests of lots of activities.  These posters are so easy to use, just put your information on a thumb drive and plug it into the back of the poster. It's that easy!  Schedule certain slides to run at certain parts of the day to maximize the signs effectiveness, change the signs location as easy and as many times as you would like.  The things you can do with a movable, digital poster board are literally endless.  Want to increase your business instantly?  A digital poster board is your answer!

How to choose the correct Digital Signage Display Size

When implementing any Digital Signage system one of the most important things you need to decide is choosing the correct display size for your target area.  Installing the largest screen you can possibly get is not necessarily always the best choice and there is an ideal size depending on the room size and the average viewing distance of the audience.  Just imagine watching a movie in the front row of the theater.  There is just too much filling up your entire field of vision for you to effectively process what is going on in the screen.

Choosing too large of  a screen readers run into problems trying to properly read the sign.  A screen too small also creates a problem with the readers trying to properly read what is on the sign.

The major factors you should consider when choosing your screen size include:

• Distance between the display and your target audience.
• The size of the area in which you are installing the sign
• Where the display is installed
• The application

32" screens are ideal for small environments with a minimum distance of 6 ft.

40-42" screens accommodate are able to service a larger audience, the viewing angles are improved and the optimal viewing distance is 8ft.

46" screens ideal for larger audiences in an open area with a minimum viewing distance of 10ft.

50"-65" are extra large with a minimum viewing distance of 12'-15'.

Libraries Improve Visitor Experience by Upgrading Bulletin Boards to Electronic Digital Displays

Have you ever visited your local public library and try to make sense of their bulletin board?  For the average person this can be a very frustrating experience since you are presented with an overwhelming amount of information posted randomly all over the bulletin board.  This can cause many people to just give up or not even try which actually is the opposite of what you are trying to achieve with your bulletin board.  

Cluttered bulletin board

By replacing your bulletin board with a high impact Digital LCD Display you can more effectively inform visitors of current events, answers to frequent questions and provide them with other valuable information about the library.  To make your presentation stand out there are many advance features of a Digital Display you can take advantage of such as high quality images, dynamic video, news, weather and much much more.  This allows you to create a presentation with much more impact allowing you to better inform visitors to your library.

Current Library Hours

Advertising products and services the library currently offers

Story Time!

Monthly Reading Group

In order to maximize effectiveness you can place the displays in a location which will give you the most impact.  For example in the library pictured above the Digital Display was installed at the entrance of a Library right behind the checkout counter.  So as visitors are waiting in line to check out a book or waiting to ask for information, they will be easily drawn to the screen looking for something to do while waiting.  This will improve customer satisfaction as the perceived wait time is much lower while viewing the LCD but at the same time you are able to inform visitors of all the important information your library has to offer!

Digital Display vs Bulletin Board

As you can easily see their are numerous advantages for utilizing a full color high resolution display over a standard bulletin board.  Not only will you become better at getting your message across, but you can also cut printing expenses, paper waste, and have messages scheduled and updated automatically!

Office Building Upgrades LED Marquee to Modern Digital LCD Display!

LED Signs are great however they have their limitations and are not always the best option depending on the exact situation. A local office building was getting tired of their out dated LED Sign and decided to upgrade to a modern LCD display managed with Entech's Expert Management System. Not only does the new LCD Display look great in the Lobby, but it has many new features and options that the LED Sign lacked.

The LCD was installed near the main entrance in the lobby and is in an ideal location to reach the maximum number of viewers possible.  Utilizing the new LCD the buildings managers were able to inform tenants and guest of events, special promotions and even helped prevent a rolling blackout by informing all tenants to help reduce their energy usage in the building.  In addition the display is also being used to entertain and inform by providing up to the date news from several different websites, news feeds from RSS feeds, traffic conditions and current weather conditions.  

LCD Display at the main entrance
