Panasonic SignEdge Digital Network (SDN) provides unique technology and infrastructure, allowing seamless integration capabilities with third-party software and applications in the digital screen retailers.

Imagine walking into your favorite car showroom and being greeted by digital screens. You input-in your favorite colour, customise the audio best-suited for your jazz-moods, bump up those wheels from normal to radial, and finally take a hard look at the suspension specifications to suit that adventurous, weekend-getaway-lifestyle of yours. The screen takes it all (inputs), processes it, and behold, the customised car of your dreams is right there (albeit, virtually). Digital signage has the possibility to do all of this, and more.

In the post-pandemic era, shopping habits have evolved dramatically. Customers have become digital-savvy and are looking for solutions that are contactless, tech-enabled, and interactive.
