the companythe company 32
Blusens started its commercial activity
in 2002 with a firm and determined
step in a field traditionally controlled
by multinational brands. The targets at
that moment were ambitious but they
were perfectly reflected in the 2002-2005
Strategy Plan. The Plan was thoroughly
designed for us to be different and
innovative, to grow at an unforeseen pace
and provide the consumer electronics
sector, so in need of a change, with new
blood. We have created a quality brand
from scratch, from the Spanish region of
Galicia and for everybody, a quality brand
guided by its excellence on every single
operative aspect with the objective of
being the best at what we do.
Blusens has far exceeded these Plan objectives by becoming the MP3 sales leading
manufacturer within the Spanish market in a time span of only four years, achieving up
to 300% annual exponential growths and showing no hints of decrease.
Blusens, with its range of products, can be found in more than 6,000 points of sale
comprehended in the largest distribution chains in the country and it is now starting an
unprecedented internationalization stage.
Our distinguishing features -constant innovation, good value for money, guaranteed
profitability, creative marketing and after-sales service- have been exceptionally
received by our customers. Blusens compromise to continuously improve the product
quality and the customer service is mirrored in the creation of our own Support Centre
located in Santiago de Compostela, Spain, with a Call Centre where all the customers’
calls are directly received and dealt with in order to provide a better and faster response
to Blusens product users.
INNOVATION: R&D
Constant innovation is one of the pillars of Blusens’ success. That is the reason why we have increased the investments in Research,
Development and Innovation up to exceed 10% of the estimated annual turnover. These investments have culminated in the creation
of our own research team made up by over 35 people. Such a commitment with innovation has fostered the creation of groundbreaking
new products such us the G01, the first European GPS navigator that uses pictometry, the web:tv, a powerful internetTV server and
home entertainment controller, the integration of IPTV protocols over power line...
These advanced products provide a powerful statement that says that technological breakthroughs can be born, developed
and implemented in Spain. Innovation is the aspect that more clearly defines our Marketing strategy. Blusens has always been
characterized by a creative and aggressive Marketing, with actions often associated with large conglomerates. Blusens innovative
and creative strategies have made a deep impression in the field, revealing the firm as a company always on the look-out for different
mediums and strategies with the aim of providing freshness to our Marketing.
In line with our young, vibrant and restless image, we are sponsors of Miss Spain
Pageant, which has associated our brand with the world of Fashion, we also sponsor
the Blusens MotoGP Team, a promising endeavour that supports young and bright
new pilots who are already making a dent in their championships, and the Spanish
Professional Blusens Basketball Team.
Further to these efforts, we have thrown ourselves into the virtual world of social
networking with our BlusensTV one2one community, Blusens Music Digital music label
and many other initiatives that keep us in the forefront of technology, communication
and marketing while closing the gap between the user and the brand.
Our next step was the implementation of our young and forward looking mindset on
the export markets. Starting in Dubai (2007), we have embarked in a very aggressive
globalization campaign under the same motto that made Blusens successful in Spain.
That is being young, fresh, reliable,
innovative and, most of all, closing the gap
between the brand and the user. Today we
are present in China (2007), Middle East
(2007), Mexico (2008), Uruguay (2008) and
Brazil (2012).
We continue to strive and develop
ever more technological products by
launching our new communications line
in which we have taken a new step in
the horizontal integration by developing
HDTV distribution systems via IP and
coaxial cable.
Having a fare presence in the GCC area
our systems are installed in a wide
variety of projects and developments.
From Luxurious hotels like the Vision
Hotel in Abu Dhabi, Diva Hotel in Bahrain,
Lamborghini Hotel in Syria, Ramada
Hotel in Bahrain, Millenium Hotel in
Kuwait, Bayan Palace in Kuwait and the
New Terminal of Jeddah Airport in Saudi
Arabia to universities like Princess Noura
in Saudi Arabia and mega projects like the
Reemram project in Dubailand, Dubai.
Our commitment to QC and continuous
R&D, along with a focused customer
service philosophy guarantee the
performance and reliability of our
systems. Capable now, as we are, of
designing and implementing HDTV
systems that range from the small single
apartment to the most luxurious hotel
complex or cable TV operator...
We will stretch ever more to become
the reference in innovation, technology,
marketing and customer service.
We can afford to be unique, different.
To be Blusens.

IPTV

IptVIptV 98
The development of new technologies over IP Networks continues to contribute to the integration of a variety of
services. These expand from the basic Ethernet network for computer interconnection, to DSL lines for internet
access, IP telephony or the most advanced automation and control systems.
The advantage of a standard communication technology over a single network allows the simplification of the cabling
network, enables the integration of varied services, which guarantees the compatibility with future technological
developments, and facilitates the monitoring, security and control of any installation.
Internet Protocol Television (IPTV) is one of the services that now can also integrate with the structured cable
network of a building. Such revolutionary change in the way TV signal is distributed significantly improves the signal
quality, interactivity and control, giving the operators a plethora of options to monitor, add services, maximize
audience and improve the return on the investment.
IPTV Standard Platform
The cooperation between Interoud and
Blusens, as software and hardware
developers, has resulted in the birth
of a true NEXTGEN IPTV system that
is able to fulfil every requirement the
Operator may need. From standard
TV channels distribution, to HDTV,
Video-on-Demand, Time-shift,
personalized advertisement schemes
and sponsorships, direct purchase
from the TV, Digital Signage and more.
WhaT Is IPTV?
Such solutions play a very important role in the
hospitality sector as they provide the tools to increase
the comfort level of their guests/patients, as well as the
overall revenue. With this IPTV system, the hotel can
offer enhanced entertainment services at a Premium,
increase the availability of other hotel services (Room
Service, Laundry, Restaurant Reservations, Spa, Sports
activities, Gift Shops, etc.) while getting valuable data
as to what their guests are watching, what channels are
popular, what content type gets the most income, what
hotel services have more demand, etc.
Thus, IPTV by Blusens provides a true added-value tool
to the operator that will, unobtrusively and reliably,
increase the revenue on a system that otherwise only
represents an added cost.

WhaT can IPTV do for you?
HOSPITALS
Added to the general Hospitality functionality, IPTV can record, and make available
to the user network, any workshop, lecture, seminar or procedure carried out in
the facility, thus enhancing the practise and resources available to the Hospital.
The offer to the patient can even include the meal selection from his physician’s
approved menu.
HOTELS, RESORTS, COMPOUNDS, RESTAURANTS
The complete solution offers a centralized point to control and monitor the guest’s
consumption and usage of the entertainment system, providing useful statistics
that can be used to tailor make the packages offered based on their origin, age
group, income, occupation, etc. The On-Demand content and some LiveTV chan-
nels can be offered in various languages and with captions to provide the closest
sensation to a Home Cinema that a hotel can offer, while giving the Operator a
variety of tools to insert various types of advertising formulas. All fully linked to
the central Building Management System. Billing is, thus, seamlessly integrated.
CORPORATE OR GOVERNMENT NETWORKS
The integration of the video streams in an existing IP infrastructure makes
possible the reception of any content on any facility, even on mobile devices. With
an IPTV platform all the multimedia content generated in courses, seminars or
master lectures can be recorded and redistributed live during the event or later,
to feed STB, PCs inside the complex, Digital Signage panels or via an internet web
portal.
EDUCATIONAL FACILITIES
Using the Corporate services as a base, an education institution may be interested
in adding notes to the video or a real time messaging feature to allow the users
watching a live event like a surgery to share opinions and comments with other
users.
CABLE TV OPERATORS
IPTV by Blusens full-fledged solution enhances the services the operator
can provide as it is fully interactive in every possible way. Direct TV purchase
becomes a true reality for varied forms of products and services. Also, it allows
the creation of Portals for different On-Demand content, Pay-per-View, and Live
events. Our system enhances the data gathering of user consumption, enabling
the use of complex statistics that will serve as a tool for continuous improvement
and detection of overlooked niche markets.

IptVIptV 2120
1. The VoDKAST Middleware server creates the STB menus by accessing the metadata information of the
videos from the VoD cluster (movie name, actors, director, etc.) and the EPG information from the live
and playout channels while considering the user access rights and credit information obtained from the
PMS. Thus, the menu is customized for each guest.
2. The hotel operator can fine tune the platform through the management console. The Middleware
Server also monitors the current state of each part of the system and triggers the proper alerts to the
management consoles in case of any problem.
3. The VoD Streaming Cluster stores all the videos in its storage nodes and streams it to the network
through the streaming nodes. The platform allows an unlimited number of streamer and storage nodes
to increase the storage or streaming capacity independently from each other according to the operator
needs.
4. The IP Contribution System obtains the live DVB-S, DVB-C and DVB-T MPEG-2 streams from satellite,
cable or terrestrial feeds and injects them into the IP network as IP multicast streams.
5. The Playout Server generates continuous loop streams of stored contents as IP multicast streams.
6. The NetPVR server stores local recordings of live TV channels to provide time-shifting features to the
platform.
7. The Digital Signage server controls the digital signage screens and split its layout in several regions
that can be filled with any multimedia content, even Adobe Flash.
8. The Ethernet Switches aggregate the outputs of all the servers and carry the video streams to the
screens through the IP network.
9. The integrated solution allows several types of STB and screens working together: Standalone STB
screen, Standard PCs screens and Low or High Connectivity Digital signage screen. Any IPTV content
(live, playout, VoD, etc.) can be displayed in any of the STB types.

middleware

mIddlewaremIddleware 2524
mIddleWare nodes
The middleware server is the core of the Blusens IPTV solution. It controls the interaction between
each part of the system and the interaction of the system itself with the rest of the hotel services. It is
also the entry point for the hotel operator, where he can check the status of the network, the connected
STB, trigger alerts to pop up in one or a group of STB etc.
VoDKAST will generate menu screens for browsing all the media library in an integrated way. The
interface is coherent among all the applications of the system (i.e. TV, VoD, NetPVR, services). It’s
also able of providing screens with local information of the hotel and surroundings. This information
screens are very simple to create and edit via collection of templates that the operator can modify
online through the management interface. All the modules of this middleware are multilingual and can
support any language with any font, for example, Arabic.
The VoDKAST middleware provides mechanisms to interact with several hotel services (room service,
laundry, housekeeping, etc…) providing direct communication with the departments where this services
are stored and being able also to print text messages with the service required.
VoDKAST has the ability of overimpressing banners over the video of all or only some of the Set Top
Boxes. It’s also able of blocking the ability of override the message by locking remotely the IR control
of the STB.
The middleware nodes are the servers that conform the middleware cluster. Depending on the number
of users the middleware can be a single server or a cluster of multiple machines working together to
provide unlimited growing capabilities to the platform.
In hospitality environments a cluster of nodes is rarely required, but, in other case scenarios, like telco
operators for example, this requirement becomes more common. Please ask your sales representative
to give you more information about the telco approach for larger installations.
The middleware nodes are built with the lastest and highest quality components sharing the group of
features that configure them as high reliability “state-of-the-art” ones.

The LiveTV and playout channels
can be shown or hidden to certain
STB or rooms. It’s numbering can
be easily resorted and, if provided
by the operator, teletext and
subtitles are fully supported.
The contents can be marked
with any tag defined by the
administrator, like action,
High Definition, Music Video,
Documentary, advertisement,
Black and White movie etc.
The middleware allows the
administrator to sort this tags in
any menu/submenu configuration,
so browsing thousands of contents
is very comfortable.
The price ruling system is very
flexible, allowing the hotel to
provide different prices according
to categories like movie genre,
director, length, etc. The system
provides a price simulator to check
the price charged for the movie to
the guest for a particular situation.

The administrator is capable of
monitoring what is being played
in any room at each STB for any
given moment. It’s also capable of
rebooting a group or a single STB
or even forcing it to tune a specific
channel or content and locking the
IR control of the STB.
The administrator can check the
current billing for any given STB or
room at any moment.
The logging system is continuously
monitoring the status of the
system an can provide alerts when
a STB is disconnected from the
network or a live TV channel is not
receiving content. This prevents
any unauthorized access to the
distribution network.
The middleware is also capable of
gathering use statistics for both
VoD and live contents.
The price of the media contents are
determined by a very flexible price
rule mechanism. This provides the
operator the flexibility of grouping
some channels into one pack and
price it.
The price rules are also defined
according to a calendar, so
creating an “action weekend offer“
is very simple.

The edition of the local information
pages is very easily done via the
web interface. The administrator
does not need any programming
or web developing knowledge
to create high quality local
information pages.
It’s possible to select an specific
welcome TV channel according to
the nationality of the guest. If the
nationality is not registered in the
system the welcome channel will
be the default one. It’s also possible
to run a specific advertisement
as welcome video in the mother
language of the guest.
The system supports any
language in every part of the
system: The interface in the STB,
the management interface, and
even the names of the tags can
be internationalized. This way
the system recognizes that the
“Action movies” will we shown
as “Peliculas de accion” for an
Spanish speaker.
sofTWare lIcenses
The system can be integrated with the PMS that is part of the IT infrastructure of
the hotel. This way the hospitality system is able to generate per-user contents
with the information acquired from the PMS.
This service will be used for automatic charging the costs of the film rental or
whatever pay service that the hotel must decide to implement on the billing of
the customer.
If the connection with the PMS system is not available for whatever reason,
VoDKAST includes a minimal PMS for this purpose.
The system also includes applications for viewing the billing of the user from the
comfort of the room.
pms IntegratIon
User Interface modIfIcatIon
deVelopment of specIfIc applIcatIon
The graphical interface of the IPTV system for the rooms can be completely
customized to the needs of the customer. Custom logos, colors and even menu
elements can be integrated in the user interface to provide a coherent, tailor made
visual language with the rest of the systems in the hotel, hospital, university, etc.
As the system proposed is a 100% end2end solution, any added value application
designed specifically to fit the customer needs can be integrated in the menus
of the STB. The flexibility is almost unlimited. Contact with a sales manager to
evaluate the viability of a custom development for your needs.

Vodstreamingcluster

Vod streamIng clUsterVod streamIng clUster 4342
The VoD cluster is the group of servers responsible of storing and streaming the on-
demand contents to each STB managed by the middleware. The cluster can be divided
into several storage and caching levels with one or more specific node at each level. The
most common approach is to have one or two levels with one node each.
In the first level, the storage nodes store and replicate the multimedia content library.
At the second and further levels, the streaming nodes act as both streamers and caching
nodes, providing the capacity to answer the queries from the STB faster than from the
first level.
When a STB asks for a movie to a streamer, the streamer checks if the movie is stored
locally in its own memory. If the content is available locally, the streaming starts
immediately, otherwise, the streamer asks the storage to stream the content to itself.
The content is then served through the streamer to the STB. At the same time, the content
is split in two and cached locally in the streamer to speed up the subsequent accesses
from other users to the same movie.
This clustering approach means that the storing and streaming requirements can grow
independently from each other making it possible to adapt the system to any installation
size.
VoDKAST Architecture Graphic
sTorage nodes
SN.12 Up to 2 tb storage node
The storage nodes, with an optional external disk array, provide storage
of any content of the media library, ensuring fast access, fault tolerance,
continuous data output and the capacity of redimensioning the network
while in operation.
The storage facility will store both the VoD, NetPVR, playout and metadata
of the whole media library of the hospitality system.
The storage capabilities of the platform can be increased by adding more
storage nodes, independently from the streaming capacity required.
Up to 2 tb storage node
• Up to 2 TB storage node.

oPTIonal feaTures
storage replIcatIon
Storage replication is an optional feature that allows the stored media to be
automatically replicated in another server, even in another building to provide fault
tolerance and transparent backup features to the VoD cluster.
transcodIng
VoD streaming require that the content is encoded in a certain way so that all the
elements of the network know how to handle the data. A transcoding node will
enable the operator to load the content in any format and store it in as many ones as
required, so that the same content can be streamed in different qualities.
VIrtUal tIcKetIng
Virtual ticketing is a technology which ensures that the access URL for a media
content is created for one specific STB, so it can be only watched by this STB even if
the URL is stolen by another user. The unauthorized access to any content is blocked
and the incidence is reported.
Virtual ticketing is not a DRM mechanism, is an access control mechanism.
load balancIng
Load balancing is an optional feature that is continually monitoring the current
streaming load of every streamer. The queries of a STB for a specific content can be
automatically redirected to the least busy streamer so the total load of the cluster is
equitably distributed through all the streamers.
The streaming nodes are the connection points between the VoD cluster and the STB with VoD
capabilities. Its responsibility is to store locally the most demanded contents to provide fast
response and to automatically get the least demanded contents from the storage nodes and store
it locally for further queries for the same content.
The streaming capabilities of the platform can be increased by adding more streaming nodes
independently from the storage space required.

Ipcontributionhead-end

Ip contrIbUtIon head-endIp contrIbUtIon head-end 5150
The contribution head-end, part of the Blusens blu:core line, is the part of the system in charge of
obtaining live content from any source and perform the appropriate operations to transform this feeds
into multicast IP streams capable of being transferred through the IP network. Once these streams are
in IP format, the middleware is the responsible of granting or revoking the access of each STB to them.
According to the source of the live video the contribution can be digital or analog. In the first case the
feeds will come from satellite (DVB-S) terrestrial (DVB-T) or cable (DVB-C) broadcasts. On the other
hand, for the analog contribution, the input will be composite or s-video, both in PAL or NTSC formats.
As the content distributed in DVB-S/T/C is already an MPEG2-TS stream, the operation performed
by the digital contribution is remove the QPSK, QAM or any other transport layer and substitute it
by IP. That's why the digital video stream is not modified in any moment and the broadcast quality is
maintained during the whole distribution of the channel through the IP network.
For the analog contribution option, the first step is encoding the original analog source into MPEG-2
digital format. Once this step is done, the stream behaves exactly the same as a digital stream being
transferred through the network.
dIgITal conTrIBuTIon
The digital contribution IP Streamer offers a complete professional video head-end solution. It is built around a
modular platform, that brings the capability of hosting as many tuning modules as required.
This way, the scalability of the platform is assured by providing a higher density, lower cost and better reliability
system due to its integrated architecture.
The IP Streamers can receive MPEG-2 transport streams from a variety of input sources (ASI, DVB-S/S2, DVB-T,
IP and DVB-C, with QPSK, 8PSK, COFDM or QAM modulations) and can descramble and re-scramble selected
services, before streaming it via IP or ASI.
All the elements of the system are continuously monitored, including decoding CAM modules via a web-based
Management Interface, which enables remote configuration of all modules,real time status of their performance,
and presentation of service related information. The streamer supports full analysis of PSI/SI (PSIP in later
release) and regenerates all tables as required.

VoDKAST Network Personal Video Recorder (VoDKAST nPVR) increases the
possibilities of the VoDKAST platform with the capability of recording, indexing
and managing live video sources. This way, it is possible for the user to record live
broadcasts, and store it in the VoD streaming cluster storage space for later on
demand recovery, providing several services, for example:
- Schedule network recordings. The recordings can be managed directly from the
EPG or manually programmed. The users decide which programs they want to
record and this programs are automatically recorded in VoDKAST servers. Later,
the users will be able to watch the recordings on demand when needed.
- Legal filing systems. For continuous recording of video broadcasting and their
later recovering. The Legal filing systems incorporates the EPG information for
easy browsing of the recorded contents. This kind of cyclic recordings can be
integrated with video surveillance systems. It also supports Catch Up TV services,
or live shows recording for the later on demand re-broadcasting.
The NetPVR allows the implementation of Time Shifting for TV channels which
allows to the users that are watching a TV channel, to pause and recover it from
the beginning of its broadcast using on demand video controls.
Due to legal reasons, VoDKAST nPVR offers several configuration options of the
filling systems:
• Option “one single copy” to manage a single physical recording and several
logical recordings.
• Option “multiple copies” to manage multiple physical copies
• Option “legal file”. Live indexing of the recordings to allow recovering via
positioning inside the recorded media.

It is a new and cost effective way of increasing brand or product visibility in
public areas. Using IP technology we can create advertising channels that provide
wanted information and, thus, attract an attention that static advertising may not.
Furthermore, the marketing campaign can be much more defined and focused,
issuing the message to the appropriate market profile, at the right location and
time, and creating a far more indelible impression.
WhaT Is dIgITal sIgnage?
The extensive experience and knowledge of the Pulsar product team, in
both large installation and VoD management, makes it the right tool to
face any challenges related to security, user experience, immediacy and
management of remote locations.
Pulsar is a complete product that enables the operator to have full control,
from a central location, of the full system, including screen layouts, content,
program grill, etc.
WhaT can dIgITal sIgnage do for you?
Pulsar Digital signage solution allows you to create a multimedia advertising solution for
providing content to hundreds of screens simultaneously. It also allows you to manage
and monitor on real time what is being broadcast on each screen.
The playout solution is the simplest digital signage platform and allows you to feed the
signage screens with a full screen sequence of videos, but, if you want more flexibility
for, for example showing more than one video at once, Pulsar Digital Signage platform
is your answer.
The Pulsar video distribution is supported by the most advanced IPTV technologies
providing a high connectivity solution in which the video streams are transferred through
the network as multicast IP streams low connectivity solution in which the multimedia
contents are distributed and then stored locally in each screen, so a problem in the
network won’t affect to the video shown in the screens.
SHOPPING MALLS, SHOWROOMS, RETAIL SHOPS
By melting the powerful advertisement capabilities of the Digital Signage solution
and the flexibility of content distribution through an IPTV platform, a commercial
surface of any size can deploy from one to hundreds of advertising screens in
all its branches reaching more customers and having full control from the
headquarters.

Pulsar gives you the simplest mechanism to
provide the most advanced Digital Signage
experience in four easy steps.

STEP 1
Select the resolution of the output
screen, Pulsar can work with SD,
HD, 16:9, 4:3, etc. Any resolution is
supported.
Divide the output screen space into
any number of regions and select
the size for each region with the
drag and drop interface
It’s even possible to overlap the
regions if desired.
STEP 2
Upload the multimedia content to the server. Any content
is supported MPEG-2, MPEG-4, DIVX, h.264, Adobe Flash
animations and video, JPEG, TIFF, etc.
It’s also possible to associate an external information source
to any resource. This way you can deploy a flash animation
with weather information, and the information to fill the
template will be gathered form Internet.

STEP 3
Compose a schedule of programs
by filling the layouts defined in the
step 1 with the resources defined
in the step 2.
The layout can change within
a schedule so you can deploy a
full screen video and then split
the screen in four regions with a
different RSS feed in each.
STEP 4
Assign one of the schedules defined
in the step 3 to any of the screens
available in the network.
The administrator can check in real
time what is being broadcast in each
screen at any moment.

PlayouT serVer
With the playout server, the administrator can generate continuous loops of full screen pre-scheduled contents
and inject it in the network as multicast streams. This is the easiest and simplest way of creating Digital
Signage information channels.
These streams are created in MPEG-2 TS format and the original contents must be MPEG-2 video as well.
The platform supports both standard and high definition streaming and can schedule even stored and live TV
contents under a common schedule.
Playout Server Architecture
PS.100 Playout Server
• Generates TV channels from realtime video feeds and stored content.
• Connects to VoDKAST servers to retrieve stored on-demand multimedia, or to access remote real-time
encoders.
• Generates an IPTV multicast or broadcast channel.
• Scheduling can be controlled from the graphical user interface integrated in the VoDKAST Management
Desktop.
• An XML/HTTP API is also provided for easy integration with third party control systems.
• Both RTP and Transport Stream output formats are supported.
seamless splIcIng
Optionally, VoDKAST Playout can perform seamless splicing for MPEG-2 content, thus generating a
continuous, clean stream out of multiple input sources and switches.
Seamless splicing is a technology which calculates on real time the intermediate video frames during
the transition between two videos in a sequence. This means when switching from one video to following,
the resulting stream won’t be affected by MPEG-2 video noise providing a clean, smooth transition.
By using the advanced scheduling functions the administrator can compose multicast TV channels interspersing
Live TV streaming from the satellite or a CCTV camera with local stored advertisements, each 10 minutes for
example.
As the stream created shows only one video at once, a channel generator is not required, but high bandwidth
network is a must. Any problem in the network connection will be reflected in the video on the screens.
sIgnage serVer
Signage Server Architecture
With Pulsar Digital Signage server the administrator can manage the whole Digital Signage platform. It
controls the channel generators, composes schedules of screen templates and manages the resources
used to fill these templates.
It’s also responsible of uploading the resources to the channel generators in a completely bandwidth
controlled way. Finally, the server will monitor on real time what is being broadcast in each screen
with the local time in the screen location, triggering the proper SNMP alerts in case of any incidence.

dIgItal sIgnage serVersdIgItal sIgnage serVers 7574
DS.100 Digital Signage Server
Pulsar Digital Signage server can generate any screen composition by dividing the screen into a template with
smaller regions. Each region can have any loop of contents in almost any media format and the layout of the
template can change accordingly to the time schedule.
A web server gives access to the platform in a hierarchical way, allowing the Digital Signage contractor to resell
time slots for specific regions of certain screens to third parties making it possible to get direct revenue from this
platform.
Pulsar Digital Signage server can drive as many low and high connectivity channel generators as desired,
independently from the IP technology used to connect the server to the channel generators. It can also upload any
given template to one or a group of Channel Generators to provide an easy and fast management of large amounts
of screens. The server will also manage the synchronization of the channel generators even if they are distributed
across different time zones.
It’s possible to link specific contents to a external information system, like weather RSS feeds or queue ticketing
systems. The server will get the information from the external sources periodically and will upload the updated
info to each screen. In case the internet connection with the server is lost, the signage screens will work with the
latest available information avoiding empty spaces in the screens’ templates, for both low and high connectivity
channel generators.
• Flexible screen template definition and scheduling.
• Mixed Low and High connectivity channel generators management.
• Screen provisioning based on the most advanced IPTV technologies.
• Managed screen content provision bandwidth and scheduling.
• Individual or group screen addressing.
• Third parties information integration and caching.
• Real Time screen monitoring.
• Multiformat content.
• Connection to the screens via any IP technology (Ethernet, Wifi, 3G, Satellite,
DSL, analog modem, etc.)
• Integration of LiveTV, Playout or VoD contents in the templates.
