Digital signage.
Meeting demand for kiosks
and information displays
in commercial and public
locations, Viewsonic has a
growing range of touch-
enabled large format
displays and digital signage
solutions, from wireless
media players to content
management software. The
range includes presentation
displays for executive offices
and meeting/board rooms;
large format displays for
internal communications and
way-finding; and e-posters
for in-store merchandising
and advertising in retail
environments. The latter are a
flexible, interactive alternative
to backlit printed signs
ideal for announcing special
promotions and delivering
real-time information.
With a built-in media
player and Digital Signage
Express software, even small
businesses and retailers will
find them easy to use.
Advanced Connect Technology.
Viewsonic Advanced Connect Technology
projectors combine the convenience of
wireless connectivity with split-screen
presenting and Live Camera and Live Draw
from tablets and smartphones. The four
models in the range (the PJD6345, PJD6544w,
PJD7533w and PJD8633ws) support wireless
display from a PC, Mac and iOS/Android/
Windows smartphone or tablet equipped with
ViewSonic’s ‘vPresenter’ app. This enables
mobile users to stream video, photos, audio,
PDF andWord documents; edit and save
projected content using the ‘Live Draw’
capability; and, with ‘Live Cam’, send real-
time images from a smartphone camera to
a projector. Material can be sent wirelessly
whether the projector is connected to the
network via a LAN cable or the optional
WPD-100Wi-Fi dongle. Advanced Connect
Technology can connect up to four PCs and
project each display on a single split-screen.
A built-in USB interface and Office Viewer lets
you display Office, PDF and multimedia files
without a PC connection.
Cost-effective.
Large format multi-touch
displays, available
in sizes from 42 to
84 inches, come in
three sub-series: the
professional 24/7 CDP
series; the customisable
CDX series; and the
economical CDE series.
The latter includes the
CDE4200-L. Designed
for businesses that
want to make a big
impact on a small
budget, the 42in Full
HD display with built-in
speakers costs just £499.
It is ideal for corporate
presentations, public
information displays,
in-store merchandising
and, thanks to an array of
connectivity options, even
hotel television.

enabled smart whiteboards are ideal for interactive
