Delivery of six InfoBoxes with dual touch monitors 55” installed at Warsaw Chopin Airport devices are IB REACTA 2x55. They were made from epoxy laminate with dedicated software KIOSK BROWSER based on Digital Signage DINE platform.

DS DINE software is an application used for content presentation in client-server architecture. It is dedicated for systems based on large displays as well as touch screens (single and multi-touch), and monitors used in the InfoBoxes and Totems. It guarantees presentation and remote updates various content on multimedia mediums.

DS DINE allows preparation, projection and remote management of the content within respective modules
Specific information, advertisements and messages are directed to exact mediums, at precise time with content fitted to display’s location.

Infoboxes at Warsaw Chopin Airport are part of Platforma Lokalizacji Pasażerów system implemented by company INOVATICA. Our task included design, production and installation of the product. The challenge was not only the high demands for utility of Infoboxes, but also the logistics of the installation. InfoBox in the airport hall is not only functional and modern, but also very stable. Thanks to our project, the device can be also used by the disabled on the wheelchairs. Due to situation that InfoBoxes were not only installed in the land side, but also in the air side, work could be done only at night at the specific hours. Completion of the task confirmed design, production and installation high competences of our employees.

The new “4Steps” concept from Schneeberg now offers an All-in-one Solution for your office with premium and ergonomic design and high functionality. The height and the angle of the multi-purpose presentation solution can be adjusted easily. Extensions which provide an “In- room” solution improve collaboration in the office.

Similar to all existing concepts from Schneeberg your 4Steps solution can be adjusted to your company’s individual aesthetic and functional requirements. 4Steps is for example available in a mobile version with casters which offer an increased flexibility in the office.  

4Steps works with several models of multi touch displays, please contact us for details concerning the model used in your office. The solution is designed so that adjusting the angle of the display prevents all working materials which were put down at the table from falling down. It is possible to charge your smartphone as well. Place for several pens is available as well!

The M 1.05 is a creation which was originally developed for the aerospace. Now it is also available for diverse 55/65 inch devices, especially for the  products of NEC. With a top-quality implementation and an ergonomic alignment, the M 1.05 facilitates the work via Multitouch-Display enormously. Functional furniture design meets the latest technology.

Next to an innovative design and the latest technology our customers can choose from a wide range of different colors for the display stand. This will allow the high-quality presentation furniture to either be integrated or to stick out in conference rooms at the best possible way.

All standard RAL-colors are available without a surcharge. We try to fulfill special customer´s requests after contacting us. Changes can also be made with different wood veneers or types of solid wood.We also build in more ports in the control bars if needed, in order to synchronise presentations with fast as possible.

Der M 1.05 ist eine Kreation die für die Raumfahrt entwickelt wurde und nun als fertiges Modell für diverse 55/ 65 Zoll-Geräte für sie verfügbar ist. Hochwertigste Umsetzung und ergonomisch ausgerichtet erleichtert das M 1.05 das Arbeiten via Multitouch-Display enorm. Funktionale und designorientierte Möbeltechnik verbunden mit neuester Technologie.

Neben innovativem Design und modernster Technik sollen den Kundinnen und Kunden auch Personalisierungen in der Farbgebung möglich sein. Auf diese Art können die hochwertigen Präsentationsmöbel bestmöglich in schon bestehende Konferenzräume integriert werden – oder sich besonders davon abheben.

Alle gängigen RAL-Farbtöne stehen ohne Aufpreis zur Auswahl. Sonderwünsche versuchen wir nach Rücksprache bestmöglich zu erfüllen. Darüber hinaus kann die Optik auch in diversen Holzfurnieren oder in diversem Massivholz angelegt werden.

Außerdem besteht die Möglichkeit, weitere Anschlüsse in die Steuerleiste zu integrieren, um etwa Präsentationen auf schnellstem Wege zu synchronisieren.

At the University of West of Scotland (UWS), a new technology-rich reception area has been created at the entrance to the Paisley campus named as “The Atrium”

The centre-piece of which is a single monolith, digital display wall:

• comprising of 32 off NEC X463UN 46” video wall displays in an 8x4 array
• overall size of the whole combine display is approx. 8.36 x 2.48M

Control is provided by a PIPView BlackBIRD video wall controller:

• managing a digital canvas of 32 displays each @ 1920x1080
• total native resolution of 15,360 x 4,320 available
• input of 16 channels – with 12 of these at 4K with stereo audio

There is a further video wall which is located behind the reception desk, control again is via another PIPView BlackBIRD unit:

• this is in a 3x3 array with the same 46” video wall display units
• total native resolution is 5,760 x 3,240
• with 4 off 4K inputs

For ease of operation, the system uses pre-set layout templates, easily selectable from a touch panel in reception.

With both video walls; to maintain quality across the whole digital canvas from the various input sources, all screens are driven at native HD resolution with the ability to display any input, any size, in any position (PIP picture in picture).

Jim O’Donnell, CIO at UWS commented “the new display area is incredible, it has been a huge hit with our students and staff alike. The technology will allow students to share digital output, bringing to life a key element of our DREAM-BELIEVE-ACHIEVE focus”

Located in Glasgow, Scotland the installation was completed in Spring 2016

The new facility was officially opened by H.R.H. the Princess Royal during a visit to the Campus on 12th February.

Esprit Digital were selected to provide a full digital solution to Elan Media in the Mall of Qatar. In partnership with local integrator AVT Audio Visual Technology in Doha. 

As an advertising network in a mall it is second-to-none anywhere in the world and has already proven a commercial success with brands from all market sectors. As standalone pieces of digital furniture deployed throughout a billion-dollar retail environment, they have been universally accepted and are currently being rolled out to other sites across the Middle East.

The client brief for this project was simple: create the biggest and best digital shopper environment in the Middle East. To date only a few airports in the region have embraced digital screen technology as a perfect medium to enhance their customer’s journeys and malls have almost exclusively stayed with traditional paper advertising systems. This will all change now as the Mall of Qatar has significantly raised the bar and demonstrated to undeniable effect how a well-thought out, well-planned, beautifully designed digital hardware installation can be a key differentiator in a competitive sector like shopping centres.

Esprit built totally bespoke double sided 70” LCD Pods (MUPI’s) which utilise the NEC P703 700Nit display. These highly stylised, iconic structures incorporate our latest Cortex thermal and remote management technology, which means maintenance visits are extremely rare if ever – almost any issue can be resolved from our Network Operating Centres around the world. Other features of this remarkable unit include LED side strips that change colour with content, full audience measurement, iBeacons and ClearSpace™, Esprit Digital’s proprietary sensor system which warns management of obstructions to their screens.

Customer Satisfaction

“From the beginning of this project we were very clear in our minds what we wanted to deliver. Very simply, a world class Digital OOH installation that would utilise the very latest and best technology available, would match the look and feel of the mall, and be a commercial success. We were also very clear about the type of partner
we needed, not just for access to the technology, but for design and implementation, and advice – delivering a real partnership. Esprit Digital have done all of this and more, and I am delighted that we selected them for this project”.

Jamie Ball, COO Elan Media.
