    BuildBurger Menu Board

    Scala, and dealer Zero-In Media, for client 4 Food. This digital signage installation complements one of the most dynamic cultures within quick service restaurants. With digital menu boards and a giant LED wall, the digital signage network integrates with the restaurant’s point of sales system and real time inventory. Also, the network integrates with online community that 4Food has created where customers can build their burgers and sandwiches online and then pick up in store. If the customer so chooses, the experience can begin before even entering the restaurant. A customer can go to www.4food.com in advance, or in line–from their Smartphone, for example, and build their burger to pick up for purchase within the store. This can be done on a computer, or the customer can use 4Food’s Smart Phone application. Once the customer enters the store, a giant 13’ x 20’ LED wall displays digital art, streaming television along with all Twitter feeds directed at 4Food’s handle and any 4Square updates. When the order is ready to picked up and paid for, it flashes the person’s name or account name. Orders can also be taken at the register which sits under and digital menu board wall that is 5 screens across by 2 screens high. The digital menu boards are made up of 10 46’’ Samsung LCD screens. As of October 13th, 2010 -over 7000 custom burgers have been created. Over 6000 online user profiles have been created. The system is averaging p2,644 foursquare checkins per day. 400 checks are a day are being displayed on the digital signs for ticket pick ups.

    Swissfarms

    Winner • Advanced AV, for Swiss Farms. The digital signage and AV installation is part of a comprehensive revamp of the Swiss Farms image, as the chain seeks to re-brand itself as “the customer’s in-between shopping trip. With the new flagship location in Millmont Park PA and a fully-revamped legacy store in Drexel Hill PA are not what early customers remember. A digital signage network with audio draws customers in, shares important information about sales, and replaces “dead-tree” flyers and static message boards that listed products for sale. The store intends to retrofit all 12 of its existing locations and incorporate the new building design, digital signage and technology systems in all of its new corporate stores, plus any franchise locations. The newest Swiss Farms location was voted “Best Exterior” in the June issue of the trade magazine Convenience Store News. Especially noteworthy: The system had to be able to integrate with a customer loyalty program.

    Pei Wei

    Winner • NEC Display Solutions and Pei Wei restaurant. Each of the 162 nationwide Pei Wei locations had the digital menu boards installed with a design that was special to each location, yet one that was consistent to the Pei Wei brand. Each of the 486 displays also can be equipped with a screen protector in the event customers mistake the menu boards for interactive signage. RiseVision software runs the deployment. The digital signage installation allows Pei Wei to test new menu items quickly. This makes Pei Wei a more agile business because new ideas can be tested quickly and decisions can be made faster to help the restaurant stay competitive and better serve customer tastes. It is also easier to highlight specials, to help the restaurant take advantage of current inventory more effectively. The system is also a way for Pei Wei to respond to the new U.S. laws governing display of caloric and other nutritional information in QSR’s.

    NECRaliegh-Durnam

    Winner • NEC, Raleigh-Durham International Airport goes first class by standardizing with NEC display. All of the 390 displays in RDU are operated from one central location which enables its Information Services team to centrally monitor and manage the health and status of each individual screen. The airport is able to completely control all aspects of the signage, from power functionality to content management from a single location, on the Airport Authority’s content management system. With multitudes of areas to cover, including FIDS, marketing, visual paging, multiple access cable television (MATV), wayfinding, gate area displays with specific flight information, baggage claim and more, Posner wanted solutions that were easy to maintain and operate. The NEC displays overcame these challenges with its low failure rate and ability to adjust according to the various light conditions throughout the airport. These displays offer the same features and capabilities, allowing RDU the flexibility it needs to operate a multi-functioning digital signage system.

    Marks FN-Tmax

    X2O Media, for Mark's Work Wearhouse. Each Mark’s Work Wearhouse store is organized into different “worlds” such as men’s, women’s and work wear. In each world, a flat-screen display highlights the type of clothing and accessories available to the consumer and showcases these products’ innovations and unique selling points. X2O Media worked with Mediavation, one of the ad agencies for Mark’s Work Wearhouse, to bring to life the agency’s creative concept of presenting product innovations as part of dynamic “faux newscasts”– creative, quirky “newscast” or weathercasts that highlight Mark’s Work Wearhouse clothes, for wear in different weather conditions.
