IoT Raspberry-PI touch displays from Display Technology
The new range of IoT Compact Panels incorporate the powerful CM3 Raspberry PI TFT controller mounted to an in-house designed carrier board . The CM3 Raspberry-PI is a Chip on Module design , offering long-term availability and has the power for many kiosk type applications . The IoT will drive TFT panels up to a resolution of 1920x1200 , so they can comfortably be used with a 7in panel all the way through to a 65in FHD panel .
Thanks to the Artista-IoT TFT controller , the IoT Compact Panels offer all the advantages of an ARM-PC as the front interfaces single 12V power supply , LAN , HDMI-IN , 2xUSB , Line Out and microSD . In addition , the internal interfaces USB , LVDS , I ² C , UART and power supply via DC / DC converters are available . The TFT backlight can either be controlled automatically by an optional ambient light sensor or directly via on-screen display with a separate keypad . WLAN and Bluetooth can be connected via USB dongles . As a special feature , the system offers an HDMI input , which can be used for displaying external content . n
AdMobilize launches first scalable Vehicle Recognition Engine
AdMobilize is pioneering breakthrough audience , crowd and vehicle analytics solutions for the OOH and DOOH markets with its Vehicle Recognition Engine . According to the company ’ s co-founder and CEO Rodolfo Saccoman , AdMobilize ’ s Vehicle Recognition Engine is the culmination of three years and tens of thousands of collective engineering hours invested in developing proprietary AI and machine learning algorithms sufficiently sophisticated to both detect and recognise vehicles in motion , in real-time , with remarkable accuracy . In December , AdMobilize begins initial vehicle recognition deployments with current customers , as new partners are signing up for implementation in early 2018 .
Less than two years ago , AdMobilize launched its industrypioneering Vehicle Detection platform , which has since been adopted worldwide through various strategic partnerships with top OOH advertising companies . AdMobilize ’ s Vehicle Detection solution can count cars , assess peak traffic periods , gauge vehicle speed , and then feed this real-time data to an intuitive dashboard within 10 milliseconds . AdMobilize ’ s new Vehicle Recognition Engine encompasses the Vehicle Detection functionality , while now also offering a suite of more sophisticated analytics such as vehicle type – e . g . sedan , SUV , bus , van , minivan , or motorcycle – and vehicle brands .
Using the information gleaned from the Vehicle Recognition Engine , OOH advertisers and media companies can more effectively target their billboard ads based on captured vehicle analytics . For example , luxury brands looking to target a wealthy clientele can now do so with greater accuracy than ever before by placing their ads on billboards regularly exposed to those driving luxury cars . Alternatively , family brands looking to target parents with young children can do so by placing ads on billboards regularly exposed to those who drive , say , minivans . If the same billboard reaches both demographics yet at different times of the day , the content management systems can automatically and dynamically deliver targeted ads based on time of day . n
