Signagelive to present Intel OPS solution at Advantech’s World Partner Conference in Taipei
An ideal digital signage hardware and software solution compliant with Intel’s Open Pluggable Specification standard (OPS) will be showcased by Advantech and Signagelive at Advantech’s World Partner Conference from 27th to 29th October in Taipei. The solution is aimed to enable digital signage manufacturers to deploy systems faster, with lower costs for development and implementation.
“Advantech is the first company to launch an OPS Player based on the powerful NVIDIA ION2 platform and we are delighted to continue working with Signagelive who have optimized their software for our digital signage systems.” Said Bas Smeets, Advantech’s Business Development Manager for Intelligent Service.
Advantech, the leading embedded platform and integration services provider announced the release of OPS compliant digital signage media player ARK-DS220 earlier this year. It is powered by an Intel Atom D525 dual-core processor (fan-based) and Intel Atom N455 single-core processor (fanless) with integrated NVIDIA GT218 (ION2) graphic module for Full HD playback. Compliant with OPS, ARK-DS220’s slot-in module design effectively lowers deployment and field maintenance costs to simplify device installation, usage, maintenance and upgrades. This system can be supplied with a Windows Embedded Standard 7 image containing the Signagelive Display Edition offering full multi-zone layout capabilities and extensive media support optimized for the ARK-DS220’s NVIDIA ION2 graphics. Signagelive is a product of Remote Media Group who is known for innovation – leading the sector in the adoption of new technologies and standards – as well as for a solution that offer enterprise-grade capabilities and support at entry-level pricing.

Commenting on the announcement, Jason Cremins CEO of Remote Media Group said: “We have worked closely with Advantech and their product development team over the last three years to create a range of optimized digital signage devices with the ARK-DS220 OPS player being a great example of our collaboration. Optimizing Signagelive for use with the ARK-DS220 and in particular the NVIDIA ION2 graphics has produced incredible results. We are capable of running 8 x HD videos running concurrently on a single player in both landscape and portrait, which is unthinkable with other digital signage hardware.
ARK-DS220 and Signagelive software address digital signage market fragmentation and is an ideal platform for graphics-centric applications. This bundled digital signage solution will be presented at Advantech’s World Partner Conference, and Jason Cremins is going to be available during the event to support all related enquires. We are looking forward to seeing you in Taipei from 27th to 29th October. For more information on the event, please visit .
