What is university TV?
University TV networks have been around for while and were restricted to video feeds and display locations were limited due to the older CRT televisions. With the creation of the flat panel LCD televisions, display locations have increased around campus. Digital signage software has taken University TV networks and transformed them into a powerful medium of communication with the students and staff throughout the campus. With the digital signage software powering and managing the digital signage network that is the university TV network. Operators are not restricted to just video. Many different file types are used in the communication such as powerpoint files web page viewing, flash files, word documents and video clips. With the campus being so large the ability to communicate is important. The digital signage system is able to broadcast emergency messaging alerts that coupled with existing emergency messaging systems is very powerful. In addition to the facts above digital signage also incorporates something that traditional video communications could not do very well and that is wayfinding.
With touch screen technology and the digital signage screens of today the duo are unstoppable, you save space while looking great and being functional and effective.
