leader in the manufacture of digital signage distribution systems, has announced
that its VDS player-to-screen multimedia distribution system has been installed as
part of a digital signage network for 300 Wal-Mart de Mexico department stores. The
new system featuring dynamic in-store advertising will be viewed by 50 million
shoppers every month.

Video Display System (VDS) for player-to-screen content distribution.

"Delivering high quality multimedia content over long distances to multiple screens

important installation is clear proof of the confidence our partners show in the
technological capability of our solutions."

distribution system allowed us to set up screens with enough range to cover all of
the strategic locations in the Wal-Mart de Mexico stores, while delivering
multimedia content flawlessly. Products advertised on the new digital signage
display network have already experienced a significant boost in brand awareness in
addition to increased sales revenue."
