Harry & David, Leading US food gift retailer, selected BrightSign for their first digital sign implementation in the arrival hall of the newly-opened Jackson County Airport in Medford, Oregon. The digital sign is seen by 300,000 passengers a year and invites visitors to take a tour of the nearby Harry & David plant and to "Taste Something Delicious" both during the tour and at the company's Country Village retail store.
Why Harry & David Selected BrightSign:
Stunning HD video quality
Reliable solid-state non-PC platform
Interactivity to demo products
Networking ability
BrightSign Implementation
Portrait mounted 42-inch flat panel display mounted in a custom-built enclosure for the display and BrightSign.
Digital video content was created in true high-definition 1080 MPEG video format
Future plans are to utilize the BrightSign Network Manager to allow for continual content updating via a simple Internet connection
"The display had to play video repeatedly in stunning high definition, be a hands-off operation, and recover quickly from power failures. We were attracted to BrightSign because of the inherent value. Plus, not having a PC to reboot after power outages means we are completely hands-off of the playback unit. Future scalability and remote operations seem very easy." Chris Robinson, Director of Corporate Television, Harry & David
