Digital Signage & DooH: Explore the digital future

Explore the digital future

Although ISE encompasses a huge breadth of audiovisual technologies, it is also one of the largest digital signage exhibitions in the world.

Attendees looking for solutions in this area should make the Digital Signage & DooH Zone in Hall 6 their first port of call, closely followed by Hall 3, where the big names in display technology take their place within the Multi-Technology Zone.

Already one of the largest solution areas in the pro AV industry, the digital signage sector is forecast to reach a value of $44.7 billion in 2026, up from $35 billion in 2022, according to AVIXA. Digitised promotion of products and services continues to be a major driver of digital signage installations; however, the ability of digital signage to educate, inform and entertain means the technology is visible in multiple market sectors, from retail, transport and education to corporate, hospitality and the public sector.

With energy prices and environmental awareness both rising, solutions that minimise the carbon footprint of signage throughout its life are increasingly in demand. Low power consumption, the ability to remotely monitor solutions, longer product lifecycles and more efficient manufacturing processes are all areas under the spotlight.

Software can simplify and optimise management of a digital signage network, pushing content to the right screens at the right time to encourage more interactions and engagement, serving ads, enabling programmatic selling and more. Fed with information from sensors, software can also help with delivering personalised content, a major trend in the sector. The next step is integrating mobile phones into digital signage strategies, allowing users to interact with content via their phones, receive tailored content, and use QR codes for frictionless buying experiences.

This could also feed into the recent growth in demand for touchless technology, such as voiceactivated screens. Already popular pre-pandemic, it is now recognised to offer benefits beyond hygiene, improving customer engagement and streamlining processes, particularly in corporate environments.
