(WINNERSH, England--November 24, 2008) Harris Corporation (NYSE:HRS), an international communications and information technology company, announces that Intelligent Media Ltd, a specialist in the deployment and operation of digital signage screen networks, has installed the first large-scale Harris® InfoCaster™ systems in Greece.
Intelligent Media operates one of the largest digital signage networks in the health sector, including systems at Iaso, Mitera and Leto maternity hospitals, as well as Iaso General, Metropolitan and Hygeia general clinics and Iaso paediatric clinic in Greece.
Following intensive market research and product review, Intelligent Media chose the InfoCaster product because it offered a highly robust and scalable solution to support content creation, dispatch and management for digital signage applications. The system provides Intelligent Media with a cost-effective solution that enables them to handle all operations from their company’s central offices in Athens.
“Due to an increase in digital signage projects that we were involved with, our requirements became more complex, and our need for a single-point content management solution grew,” said Georgios Tsintzilonis, general manager of Intelligent Media Ltd. “The acquisition of digital signage software was essential, and InfoCaster™ proved itself during the trial phase to be the best solution on the market to fit our needs, as it provided full control over both content creation and management. Using InfoCaster™ helped us to manage our networks, but it also allowed us to deploy more networks in less time. It was also cost-efficient in terms of management, as we would have needed a large number of additional operators to continue serving standalone screens in this number.”
The sale was handled by AMY SA, a Harris dealer in Greece. AMY Digital Video, a department within AMY SA that specializes in digital video solutions, provided the design and consultancy services for this installation. AMY Digital Video also handles the support and maintenance of this system, as well as other installations of the InfoCaster digital signage networks in Greece.
A key component of Harris Digital Signage™ solutions, InfoCaster™ offers a complete suite of products for creating, scheduling, distributing, playing and reporting live video and graphics. Users can acquire or create digital content and manage it throughout the entire delivery chain — from a central site or multiple remote locations — on a TCP/IP network. InfoCaster™ enables easy acquisition and content creation of graphics, live video and dynamic data content, then synchronizes and delivers content from multiple sources to thousands of remote displays spread over a nationwide network, addressing individual messaging display requirements. Advanced management, scheduling and monitoring tools give users unprecedented control and flexibility over the enterprise network.
Harris Digital Signage solutions support the complete digital signage content delivery chain and are designed to scale from supporting small, multi-screen implementations at a single venue to enterprise implementations that encompass large numbers of venues, zones and screens.
Harris Broadcast Communications offers products, systems and services that provide interoperable workflow solutions that span the entire media delivery chain. The Harris ONE™ solution brings together highly integrated and cost-effective products that are ideal for emerging media business models and for customers upgrading media operations to digital and high-definition services.
