What is digital Signage?
It is an electronic signage using digital displays (LCD, LED, projection) to deliver targeted
messages to an audience. It basically requires content and two pieces of hardware: a display/screen
and a media player..
There are 2 types of systems:
- “Local Stand Alone” where the content is being read directly by the player
- “DooH (Digital Out Of Home)” is a more advanced solution where a software application is used
to
send the content via the Internet to the displays and usually the users can integrate multiple
forms of messages; scrolling rss feed, text, imagery, weather, sport scores, videos, photo
sideshows, into
the remotely located displays.
What differentiates Micro-broadcasting from other digital signage or
DooH software solutions?
- Provides you with your own centralized web-based content management system and DooH application
for you

times,
group, genre, …) and the deployment of interactive content and applications in addition to rich
multimedia content.

operating
systems or costly hardware requirements.
