Focus Enhancements simplifies digital signage with new DART management software

Focus Enhancements, a worldwide leader in media acquisition, management and delivery technology, has announced its new digital signage management software solution, DART.
The DART solution helps retailers easily and efficiently manage operations and digital assets over their existing AV/IT network.
DART features fully-integrated tools to set up and manage a large-scale in-store digital media network. DART enables retailers to remotely configure, monitor, manage and report small and large deployments of networked media players, providing 24/7 access and support. DART also provides media pre-scheduling and push capabilities for complete unattended operation.
Metrolook, a service provider for digital TV networks in Mexico, currently uses DART to help their high-end customers manage media players in retail applications. According to Metrolook President, Don Salvador Gonzalez Grisi, "DART is a modular software tool that enables us to remotely manage the unique needs of our clients for managing, pre-scheduling and distributing content. DART provides compelling capabilities, including SNMP communication and the ability to group player/content by network, devices, clients, regions, or other custom attributes. This saves an incredible amount of time by seamlessly managing disparate content and players from a central point."
Michael Conway, Senior Vice President of Business Development for Focus Enhancements, added: “DART enables CIOs to retain more control over their media network infrastructure from a central NOC and to manage their digital assets across their enterprise remotely.
“DART provides unprecedented capabilities which allow retailers to do more with their in-store digital signage networks, ultimately increasing advertisement or information-to-viewer relevancy, brand resonance, and ad campaign effectiveness for in-store media.”
