Outdoor digital signage and the protection needed.
Outdoor digital signage is every place – ever been at a transit hub and seen the displays outdoors, providing passenger information? Or have you ever been in an open shopping mall and seen the electronic signs that direct you around the outlets? This is outdoor digital signage!
Solutions used in outdoor digital signage.
These vary enormously, depending upon the application and budget for the project, yet, as a rule of thumb, a commercial grade flat panel display is used, this can be mounted in either landscape or portrait, and a media player is required to host the commercials that will be displayed on the flat panel display.
DOOH USA are a leading expert in designing and manufacturing outdoor digital signage enclosures, they had a major success in 2012 with the London Olympics in Britain, with 9 outdoor digital signage totems deployed around the park displaying content form the sponsors.
They have also supplied stainless steel digital signage enclosures to BARTS (Bay Area Transit System in San Francisco) who were so happy with the product, DOOH USA was awarded the second part supplying the Golden Gate Transit System with digital signage enclosures.
So as you can see, these can be:
- Wall mounted
- In landscape or portrait position
- Floor standing

- Interactive outdoor kiosks
- Networked enabled kiosks
