Digital signage refers to digital signs or screens that display content to an audience. For a more detailed definition, read our info page. The three main components of digital signage are software, hardware, and content. Hardware refers to the actual media player and screen. Software refers to the content management software (CMS) platform. And content is what is displayed.
It’s simple. Each screen is connected to a digital signage media player. The player is connected to the internet so that the content management software (CMS) can be reached. This means content can be managed remotely from any laptop or desktop. Read more about how the software works here.
