Samsung, the world leader in commercial display technology and AOpen, the global market leader in commercial media player technology for the digital signage industry announced today a strategic alliance to promote their respective products and services to the digital signage/DOOH markets through their extensive networks of distributors and channel partners. “Building on our heritage as a worldwide leader in consumer display technology, Samsung drives innovation in commercial display technology,” said Tod Pike, senior vice president at Samsung’s Enterprise Business Division. “By working with strategic partners such as AOpen we are able to continue to broaden our world-class suite of products and services and provide integrators and customers alike with cost-effective ways to offer engaging, dynamic visual experiences in any venue.” To emphasize their alliance, Samsung and AOpen will be demonstrating the latest in video wall technology in AOpen’s booth # N1867 at this year’s Infocomm 2012 being held in Las Vegas on June 9-15. Featuring Samsung’s brilliant, ultra-thin bezel 460UT-2 LCD displays and powered by AOpen’s rugged and reliable Digital Engine DE67 media player utilizing the Intel® Core™ i7 Processor, the video wall will also showcase AOpen’s Open Service solutions strategic partner, SoftSync Inc. SoftSync will demonstrate its patent-pending SoftSync software, which allows for cost-effective display control and synchronization of stunning high definition digital content across multiple displays with no loss of fidelity. SoftSync eliminates the need for expensive videowall processor and scaler hardware in large, multi-display digital signage deployments such as video wall and menu board installations, reducing the cost of such installations by thousands of dollars. Samsung will be exhibiting its extensive commercial display lineup including the ME65B, a 65” display with an innovative touch overlay option, the H Series Hybrid TV displays, the UD22B square videowall display and the NL22B transparent all-in-one showcase display at booth # C6319 at the Las Vegas Convention Center from June 13th -15th.
