Don't deploy Digital Signage without directional audio...

 

  
    Everyone agrees that Digital Signage is a powerful medium that is here to stay.  But what is just now coming to the forefront is how to deploy audio with it to complete the solution.  Directional Audio is gaining a big following as evidenced recently by a major retailer:  
 

 
 

Early in 2008 at the Digital Signage Expo in Las Vegas Mike Hiatt, director of internal media networks at Wal-Mart during his speech said"...we had reports of digital signage audio being too low in customer interviews, directional audio would solve that issue." 

Further he went on to say "...any audio included with digital signage must be directional"

  
 

 

Dakota Audio produces a wide variety of directional audio solutions that all have two things in common:  They are very small (the thickest array is only 3 inches thick) and they sound great!

  • Overhead arrays come in two sizes: the 36 inch square x 3 inch thick FA-501 and the FA-602 (the FH model is free hanging and the CM model fits in a suspended ceiling)  both of which include an amplifier and user control panel built in for configuring the sound pattern, distance of throw, and tuning for the type of audio being played.

  • Flat Panel Mini arrays these MA-4 speakers are also very popular with kiosk sound projects and come in a variety of lengths (18-38 inches) though all are less than an inch deep and only two inches tall.  These arrays are one of the most popular with Digital Signage solutions.

  • Floor Mount arrays are manufactured in two varieties: Pre-construction and post-construction models.  The Pre-construction model of the FA-603 is designed to be placed in a pocket built into the floor.  The 0.87 inch thick array can then be placed under a grate or even under the carpet!  The post-construction floor array is only one inch thick and comes with an aluminum perforated grill that is tapered to floor level to assist with ADA compliance.
   

 

Dakota Audio also designs custom arrays to precisely fit your needs.  Whether it is designing and manufacturing round arrays for the Smithsonian Institute or special arrays with holes in the center for a light to shine through for the Stax Museum of American Soul Music, Dakota Audio wants to build your Digital Signage solution to your exact specifications.
