Split-flap display - The Moment We Meet.

The art installations use early split-flap displays to form 10x10 matrixes of faces. Every single display can be controlled independently and create endless number of combinations of faces. These faces convey the idea of when we meet, our emotions and expressions spread out to others', and like the old Chinese proverb: "to honor old people as we do our own aged parents, and care for other's children as one's own"




Größte LCD-Abflugtafel Europas entsteht.

Bron; www.invidis.de
Seit dieser Woche wird die große Abflugtafel im Zentralbereich des Flughafen München abgebaut und durch die angeblich größte LCD-basierte Videowall an einem europäischen Flughafen ersetzt.

Moderne LCD-Bildschirme von NEC ersetzen an vielen Stellen des Münchner Flughafens die alten LED-Wände



















Analog zu Terminal 1 sollen moderne LCD-Bildschirme die alten
LED-Wände ersetzen
Laut  Medienberichten wird die neue Videowall-Installation insgesamt 72 LCD Displays umfassen – das entspricht einer Fläche von 19 x 2,30 Metern. Im Gegensatz zu der neuen Videowall basierte die gegenwärtig im Rückbau befindliche Anzeigentafel aus einzelnen Matrix-Elementen. Diese hatten den Vorteil von besonders guter Lesbarkeit, auch bei direkter Sonneneinstrahlung, sind aber nicht mehr State-of-the-Art. Die Bestandsanzeige war seit der Eröffnung des Flughafens 1992 ununterbrochen im Betrieb und entspricht nicht mehr dem Stand der Technik. Vergleichbare Anzeigen wurden bereits in den vergangenen Jahren im Terminal 1 durch Videowalls ersetzt  Ob dieselben Partner wie im Terminal 1 zum Zuge kamen ist bisher nicht bekannt.

Der Trend zu LCD-basierten Videowalls ist auch bei Flughäfen ungebrochen. Auch wenn immer öfter im modernen Terminaldesign die großen Anzeigentafeln durch ein große Anzahl von Stelen / kleinen Videowalls entlang der Laufwegen ersetzt werden. In der Praxis hat sich bewiesen, das zentrale raumhohe Abflugtafeln, wie sie früher üblich waren, den Passagierfluss abbremsen.
Für Nostalgiker noch ein Bericht vom Flughafen Frankfurt, wo eine der größten Faltblattanzeigen als zentrales Architekturelement noch am Leben gehalten wird. Bisher gab es kein Streik von Piloten oder Fluglosten ohne die üblichen TV Live-Schaltungen vor der großen Abflugtafel. Ein sehenswerter Bericht:

a2-vianen

OOHA Media introduceert haar eerste digitale reclamemast aan de A2 bij Vianen. Deze reclamemast is vlakbij het knooppunt Everdingen gesitueerd. De A2 reclamemast is de eerste digitale reclamemast met twee megaschermen (98m² per zijde) in Nederland (maar let op: volgende week introduceert Clear Channel haar ‘double digital’ langs de A5 bij Amsterdam – de markt ontwikkelt zich snel).
Later dit jaar zal een tweede digitale reclamemast langs de A1 richting Hoevelaken in gebruik worden genomen. Met deze digitale reclamemasten wil OOHA Media inspelen op de behoefte aan flexibel in te zetten reclamecampagnes. LED-schermen maken het mogelijk snel in te spelen op de actualiteit. Klanten kunnen veel sneller wisselen tussen campagnes of visuals dankzij het gebruik van de digitale techniek.

OOHA Media is specialist in digitale Out-Of-Home-Advertising. OOHA Media is een relatief jonge speler op de markt en heeft volop ambities. Ze willen de grootste exploitant van digitale snelwegreclame in Nederland worden en werken eraan om op termijn een landelijk netwerk van 10 tot 12 digitale masten aan te kunnen bieden.

A TV the size of an entire football goal has been launched by Titan, a specialist British screen manufacturer.

Bron; www.avinteractive.com


The television, the world’s first to retail at £1 million, has been launched in time for the FIFA World Cup.

Titan has named the limited range Zeus. As the biggest television ever created for domestic use each TV in the Zeus range is almost the size of an entire football goal, tank or a small London studio.

As well as being perfect for indoor use, Titan Screens are also engineered to work in any outdoor environment to deliver high picture quality in bright sunlight – something fans might appreciate in time for this summer’s FIFA World Cup.

At 8m x 5m – or 370 inches – it is more than four times the size of the largest existing television in the world.

Only four Zeus screens will be made with the first having already been pre-sold to a British media millionaire and the second to be built on top of a hotel on the seafront in Cannes.

With 65 billion colours and weighing almost a tonne, the television has been designed using technology developed in Britain. The TV has been engineered from scratch to create a life size visual experience for sports, games, movies and TV viewing so football fans can watch the upcoming World Cup with players at actual size at 4k – the equivalent of double high definition.

The cost, which excludes the cost of installation and delivery via a custom-built Hummer, makes it the most expensive television ever created.

Titan also creates bespoke screens aimed at the mid-range market, selling 1,000-inch TVs for £150,000.

Anthony Ganjou, ceo of Titan, said: “We have assembled the best screen technologists in the country to hand build a British-made screen which would not only be the biggest but the most extraordinary ever conceived. Following the interest in the launch range of our ultra high end 1000-inch domestic screens we decided to create something iconic and the team spent six months building the million pound screen.

“Having already pre-sold two of our £1m screens – one of which is likely to be installed at the bottom of a very large indoor swimming pool – we are open to serious enquiries in relation to the other two in the range.”

Coca-Cola and Microsoft, heating up coolers with digital signage.

Asia-Pacific beverage manufacturer Coca-Cola Amatil has added a new touch to heat up its in-store coolers in Australia, enabling them to interact with customers via mobile, gesture and touch.
Customers can use the coolers to listen to music and take photos of themselves using an integrated webcam built into each interactive cooler. The cooler also integrates augmented reality that alters their appearance on screens located on the cooler sides and in these photos with different clothes and hairstyles, and it also allows them to share their pictures on social media.
CCA, which provides soft drinks in six countries in the Asia-Pacific region, introduced the interactive coolers in order to stay ahead of the competition and appeal to young consumers. To keep costs down, it added digital signage technology to existing beverage coolers in stores and shopping malls.
Marketing company TKM9 developed the content management system used by the interactive coolers, im, using Windows Embedded, Kinect for Windows and the Microsoft Azure platform.
Early 2013 launch
TKM9 and CCA created 50 Coca-Cola Coolers and went live with the project in Australia in early 2013. The ongoing project is designed to boost sales by engaging customers in Australia, while optimizing the design for deployment across multiple global markets.
The upgrade has been successful, Microsoft has reported in a case study, increasing brand loyalty and product sales by an average of 12 percent in the grocery channel when compared with traditional coolers. And by streaming a beverage discount offer in its content, one digital cooler in the off-premises channel even had a 120-percent increase in sales in a single month, according to the case study.
“We didn’t want just a locked down white box,” Stuart Port, CCA’s frozen beverages strategy manager, said in a statement. “We needed an interface that would tell us everything from the customers’ perspective, including their location and how they were interacting with the solution. It’s not just about delivering digital content, it’s about doing it in a targeted and relevant way.”
CCA also has the potential to use the data collected to refine product offers. “Through the geo-location software on mobile phones, im can track the route customers take to reach the cooler,” TKM9 CEO Mark Hodgens said in a statement. “Then it can use the information to create ‘heat maps’ that optimize cooler placement as well as the display of other store products.”
And all of that together is a recipe for increased engagement for the brand, according to CCA and TKM9.
“Interacting with the coolers using touch, gestures and their own mobile phones gives customers a unique experience that has been proven to increase sales and brand loyalty,” Hodgens said in the case study.
Which leads to CCA building sales along with customer relationships that extend past the point of the original purchase. “These interactive coolers ... are a great way to represent your brand right at the point of purchase,” Port said. “If it engages people enough that they reach in and buy that Coke, it helps increase sales. But at the same time, it’s terrific for us that we’ve had a positive experience with the consumer.”
