Adomni DSE Booth # 2634 Why do people going to DSE need to put your company on their Must See list of booths? To see the latest digital out of home technology, including audience based targeting. To learn about the new Adomni Ad Marketplace for BrightSign. […]
The venue is booked, artwork in progress, ticketing page up and sponsors lined up for the 10th – yeah, the 10th – 16:9 DSE Mixer on March 26th in Las Vegas. Each year, if this is new to you, I host a cocktail party for about 400 industry friends. It has become the unofficial kick-off to Digital Signage Expo week, and a very hot ticket. […]
Compact media players is still a thing in digital signage, though it could be argued they got small enough a decade ago, and going even smaller is not all that critical. A couple of well-established companies that are not doing the smart display/system on chip player thing have made recent announcements about their new teeny to compact media boxes. […]
I managed to squeeze in a few podcast interviews in and around ISE last week, and this is the first – a long-planned and finally realized talk with Sam Phenix, who is the VP of research and development for Planar and Leyard. That puts her in the middle of everything happening in the display market right now, from LCD and OLED to light field displays. […]
Guest Post: Luis Villafane, Maler It’s been a while since Ive written anything for 16:9. I guess the muse did not come to me until just now. Luis Villafane I’ve been keeping a low profile because I’ve just been very busy. I did not go to ISE this year. I wanted to go, I really did, but I just could not make it. Too much work, too many children. […]
With Integrated Systems Europe out of the way, industry eyes are turning now to Digital Signage Expo, which is in late March in Las Vegas. Every year, 16:9 provides a free service available to exhibitors to preview their booth plans. I don’t charge for this, and ask only that the exhibitors complete a web form that has a set of questions and requests for links to logos and pix. […]
Minneapolis-based Tightrope Media Systems is coming out the other side of a rough patch last week, when a cybersecurity researcher doing penetration testing for a client found, documented and then published serious vulnerabilities in the company’s Carousel digital signage software. […]
Back at World HQ after a week in Amsterdam – and for the 2nd time in four ISE visits dealing with a whopper of a cold no doubt picked up when amongst 80,000 people. I have not seen formal attendance numbers, but assume foot traffic would be similar to or exceed 2018. It didn’t SEEM as busy, except for Wednesday, but the actual numbers will tell the story. […]
An industry friend turned me on to what has becoming an ongoing issue with the “smart city” kiosks being installed in big cities around the UK. Turns out the digital information stations are really popular with drug dealers. […]
STRATACACHE says it is opening a new Asia-Pacific headquarters for its group of digital signage companies in Singapore – 3,100 sq. feet in an office block to house sales, marketing, development, services and customer support in the region.

The globally-based Digital Signage Awards were handed out last week in Amsterdam, with about 120 nominees and guests attending the awards reception and dinner at an old theatre right in the old city’s central district. The awards are done in association with Sixteen:Nine, and happen because of sponsors like TRISON, BBV, Mvix, NanoLumens and Gable. […]
Writing this on the plane and in lounges – heading back to Nova Scotia. Like a lot of people, based on what I was hearing and then seeing this morning at the airport, I punched out after three days. Thursday was busy-ish, but nothing like Wednesday. […]
This will be terse, as Wednesday was a full day at ISE 2019 – meetings, podcast interviews, booth tours, a mixer and an awards dinner. Crowd – It seemed slow-ish for a Tuesday but Wednesday was nuts … I’ve been subwaying it to the RAI but a breakfast in central made it necessary to Uber to the venue. Eventually, I got out and walked. […]
Day 1 is done and dusted at Integrated Systems Europe in Amsterdam, and I am happily back at my hotel, dodging extracurricular bad behavior in the hopes of actually-maybe getting a decent sleep. Crowd – Looked busy, but not stupid-busy. I wasn’t fighting my way through or around mobs to get at stuff. […]
Denver-based Four Winds Interactive has grown to date based on a small group of inside-ish investors, but that has changed with news of an Austin, Texas private equity company taking a non-controlling position with the digital signage SMS software company. […]
