WebDT MS1600 — Industry's First Player to Power Multiple Digital Signs with Dynamic Full High Definition
ORLANDO, Fla. - (BUSINESS WIRE) - DT Research , Inc., an industry leader in the development of
information appliances for vertical markets, today announced the release
of the MS1600, a new signage appliance in the WebDT Signage System line,
capable of powering content over up to 16 screens. The MS1600, or WebDT
Multi Screen Appliance, enables powerful content streaming on anywhere
from 2 to 16 displays, and offers content blending, or tiling, across
screens. The MS1600, along with WebDT Content Manager, provides the
industry's first fully integrated system with 1080p over up to 16
screens and multi-zone management for up to 16 zones.
The MS1600 is powered by the Intel
Quad-Core i7 processor, and provides full HD (1080p) video quality to
every screen. Running Microsoft
Windows operating systems, the
WebDT Multi Screen Appliance displays content files in native
resolution, so images are sharp and true to original properties, even
when presented on multiple displays or large screens, maintaining
optimal picture quality.
"DT Research's strong engineering ability allows cutting edge
signage devices to be presented to the digital signage market, taking it
to the next level and further expanding the market share for out-of-home
advertising," stated Joe Jensen, general manager, Embedded Computing
Division, Intel.
The MS1600 is ideal for applications that require high-resolution
on multiple screens including menu boards, flight/transportation
information, and creative display arrangements. The energy efficient
MS1600 enables dynamic digital signage deployments in spaces where
multiple screens are indoors and viewed by audiences at close range,
such as shopping malls, entertainment venues, and airports.
"With the latest technology from Intel, we are able to design and
create the next generation of durable signage appliances," said Dr. Daw
Tsai, president of DT Research. "The ability to run multiple displays
from a single signage appliance allows customers who require this
configuration to deploy digital signage networks with the highest
quality video experience efficiently and cost-effectively."
Each of the screens powered by the MS1600 can be remotely managed
with the WebDT Content Manager software, which is bundled with the
appliance. This intuitive interface software is used for organizing,
scheduling, and deploying content to the digital signage network. The
WebDT Content Manager provides multiple zone support and planning for
each display, so that a screen can be divided into up to 16 zones with
different content in each zone. With WebDT Content Manager, all screens
can show the same content, each screen can play different content, or
content can be blended over several screens. The user-friendly WebDT
Content Manager also allows users to create many combinations across
multiple screens, such as four zones on two screens, two zones on five
screens, and hundreds of other possible screen layouts.
The WebDT Multi Screen Appliance brings top quality performance in
a compelling design, and is available beginning June 18th,
2009.
