Digital signage/advertising machine wireless networking access solution

Digital Signage is a brand-new media concept that publishes business, financial and entertainment information through large-screen terminal display devices in large shopping malls, supermarkets, hotel lobbies, restaurants, cinemas and other public places where people gather， a multimedia professional audio-visual system. With the continuous development of modern technology, the application of digital display technology will be everywhere. Digital signage relies on the integration of network and multimedia technologies to publish and process information in the form of media, and interact with customer feedback in a timely manner. It has been widely used in finance, telecommunications, hospitals, stores, supermarkets, hotels, public places and other fields. People put it alongside paper media, radio, television, and the Internet, and call it the "fifth media." The digital signage system can count and record the playing time, number of times and playing range of multimedia content. It can also realize more powerful interactive functions while playing, which brings opportunities for the creation of new media.

 

System introduction:

The system mainly uses modern multimedia technology, wireless communication technology, etc., to network multiple terminals, allowing the data release platform to interact with each terminal in real time, realizing the remote release of new programs, real-time monitoring of terminal status, multi-point interaction and other functions. The system mainly includes the front-end Data release terminal, status collection terminal, wireless data transmission equipment, platform data release and status monitoring system and other parts. The front-end equipment mainly realizes the real-time release and display of advertisements and other data, and the real-time collection of terminal operating status. The real-time status is collected and transmitted to the platform, and the platform sends various program information to each terminal to realize remote publishing and monitoring functions. The wireless communication mainly uses the Xiamen Caimore Communication Industrial Computer for data transmission through the operator's 3G/4G and 5G wireless networks.

 

Network communication device:

The system uses the industrial 5G/4G industrial computer CM580-6BF to provide wireless network transmission for the vending machine to realize the networking connection between vending machine and different back-end platforms of the user. The system mainly includes the front-end self-service vending machine and the Caimore network transmission data collection system And the three parts of the cloud management platform.

CM580-6BF is an embedded industrial Motherboard with low power consumption and high performance. It use Rockchip RK3288 series CPU, and ARM processor combined with Android operating system to provide a very broad and free App operating.
