Signagelive is partnering with Philips Professional Display Solutions (PDS) to develop support for their extensive range of Android powered SoC Philips Displays, which will be launched at Digital Signage Expo 2017 (#DSE2017), 28-30 March, Las Vegas.

Philips Android OS product range began with the Full HD, D-Line display, which has been followed by more of the company’s range recently moving to the OS thanks to its faster processing power, easier installation and advanced ‘fail-over’ protection. In addition to the Android OS, D-Line is uniquely a Dual SOC model with dedicated chips for the operation of the display and for managing and playing content, to ensure that all software runs smoothly and under all circumstances.

To deliver Philips PDS’ Android powered display support, Signagelive has developed an optimized Android version of its HTML5 based media player, which is in used daily by 1,700+ digital signage networks worldwide. The combined Philips PDS /Signagelive SoC Display solution delivers the functionality and performance required for enterprise grade digital signage, with key features including:

• Images, Videos, HTML5 web page support
• 100 percent support for scheduling including; recurrence, validity and tag based publishing
• Remote application updates for inline upgrades to the Signagelive Android client
• Widget support — Over 500 Editable Templates, Clocks, Weather and Room Booking Templates

Philips PDS’ Android SoC Displays partnered with Signagelive are compatible with the recently launched Signagelive Marketplace, comprising 500+ plus pre-built digital signage pieces of content (ranging from layout backgrounds, editable templates, clocks and weather widgets to pre-built applications).

Built to deliver the editable content templates in the Signagelive Marketplace, the Signagelive Widget Development Framework enables resellers, developers and customers to build and publish custom HTML5 content and interactive experiences for Philips PDS’ Android OS Displays.
