Helius Launches MediaSignage Software Package

Nov 1, 2005 5:20 PM

Helius announced the launch of its MediaSignage software package, a second-generation, browser-based digital signage scheduling application tool designed to give businesses the ability to effortlessly schedule and deploy multimedia content at multiple display points from a central location.

In conjunction with the MediaStream SST Advanced output device, which has on-board storage capabilities, the MediaSignage software package provides a "drag and drop" interface for the development of unique multimedia playlists for playback at specific times on numerous displays. Additionally, content can be displayed in a one-, two-, or three-panel display with a main window, side information bar and ticker. Location and size of each panel is customizable to fit each business' needs.

The end result is a flexible, network-wide broadcast solution that communicates business-critical information to the right target at the right time. Delivering customized content specific to the point of display gives customers a distinct advantage over simple broadcast media where content is the same at all locations.

"Helius understands that while having the ability to deliver unique multimedia content to numerous display points is a valuable communication tool, it's not worth it if managing that content isn't flexible, customizable, and easy to use," says Ron Heinz, president and CEO of Helius. "That's where our MediaSignage software package really delivers. With the seemingly endless array of scheduling attributes the MediaSignage software possesses-from drag-and-drop programming and triple-pane display options to flash movie support and storage capabilities, managing your messages has never been simpler."

The adaptability of the infrastructure Helius offers to support its application packages, such as the MediaStream SST Advanced, means the MediaSignage software can be integrated with ease into almost any business environment.
