  HD Video Retail Displays From IDT

By Branko Miletic | Wednesday | 2008-09-17

BrightSign products are solid-state media players that support standard and high-definition video, photos, music and interactivity for in-store point-of-purchase displays, museum exhibits, digital signs and interactive kiosks.

Unlike other flash players, BrightSign products employ the highest quality video decoder and a professional-quality scaler to provide superior video quality to mainstream displays. BrightSign offers three models to choose from to deliver premium-quality video, photos and music for any digital sign application.

The BrightSign is designed for simplicity and economy by easily and reliably playing back looping video or still image slide shows on VGA monitors or TVs. The BrightSign HD600 goes a step beyond by supporting component outputs in addition to VGA.

However, both the BrightSign and HD600 support MPEG video decode with better than DVD-quality by up-scaling to 1024x768 VGA. This lets you use a low-cost commodity VGA panel at higher resolutions.

The HD2000 delivers superior high-definition MPEG video decode up to 1080i, for high-impact displays.  All models support high definition frame buffer modes for still graphics, and the HD600 and HD2000 models support multiple audio channels, and many control options.

Designed for simplicity, BrightSign is easy to implement and maintain without an IT department. Simply insert a removable flash card to display looping playback of high-definition video, image and audio content using playlists created in notepad or MS Word. Button, touch-screen or mouse interactivity for the HD600 and HD2000 can be added simply with spreadsheet templates.

The RRP pricing for HD600 is $860 and for the HD2000 $1204.
