DIGICHIEF USES CHYTV PLUS FOR DIGITAL SIGNAGE
ADVERTISING AT THE PUMP
Melville,
NY/Lexington,KY - July 2008 – DIGICHIEF, a digital signage software and data
distribution company, today announced a contract using ChyTV Digital Signage
systems to
provide a market specific Video Information Display solution for the FUEL VIEW TV Network. The first installation in
Lexington, KY has 100 21” pump top LCD displays at area fueling Stations.
DIGICHIEF chose the ChyTV Plus Video
Graphics Unit (an offering of Chyron - AMEX: CGS), to update each pump top
display.
“The
ChyTV Plus units really are work horses. They’ve proven to be extremely
reliable and their small profile works well with the limited space allotted to
us at each fueling station,” says Gene Hamm, partner at
DIGICHIEF. “Bundled with our data
feeds, this solution really creates an engaging experience for the consumer.”
The
ChyTV Plus units are updated remotely using ChyTV.net, the on-line service
launched in 2007 by Chyron. This
enables clients to enjoy the ability of an immediate, personalized and dynamic ad
revenue stream. In addition to remote
updates and scheduling, DIGICHIEF supplies each pump top display with relevant
news, weather, sports, and financial data from their DIGICHIEF Data Feed. The video loop cycles between an abbreviated
local newscast and advertising, along with a relevant mix of local news,
weather, sports and financial data via an L-Bar graphic.
Jim Altemose, Director of Product Development for the ChyTV group
explained, “With ChyTV.net providing the connectivity to their various remote
sites, FUEL VIEW is able to easily install,
monitor and deliver specific real-time content to specific locations. By providing fresh, interesting, locally
relevant information, the FUEL VIEW TV NETWORK is
able to capture the customer’s attention quickly, adding value for their
advertisers.”
