Zeroing In On Our Disrupted Future

January 21, 2014 by Dave Haynes

I’m on the phone later this week to walk through the topics and orchestration of a seminar planned for Day 1 at Digital Signage Expo – a good one for people who want to know what’s coming and what it means.

Session S13, from 4 to 5 on the 12th, is bluntly called: DIGITAL SIGNAGE DISRUPTED.

In this session, participants will discover how rapidly emerging technologies like ARM devices, HTML5 and RaspberryPi are dramatically changing the landscape for end-users and vendors.  

My panelists are a solid bunch:

• John Wang, CEO of the device and integrated display manufacturer IAdea;
• Raffi Vartian, COO of the SaaS software firm signagelive, which has always tried to stay ahead or at pace with technology advances;
• Bryan Crotaz, who built a software firm and sold it to AMX, and is now really pushing the technology envelope by turning Raspberry Pi’s into very viable playback devices.

Final topics TBD, but we’ll almost certainly cover Pi, HTML5, Android, system on chip “smart” displays, as well as a broader future state of technology as it applies to this sector.
