Operating System | Standardized on optimized Android 7.1. The OS kernel is customized (rooted) for embedded stability, removing consumer apps and maximizing resource allocation for signage tasks. | Benefit: Provides a highly stable, low-resource environment perfectly tuned for the RK3288 Quad-core A17 processor. This optimization ensures reliable uptime and minimizes the risk of system crashes common with unmodified consumer-grade Android builds. |
Remote Content Management | Implemented via a secure Cloud-Based CMS (Content Management System) using HTTPS/API integration with a client-side kiosk application. Supports upgrade from local USB/Standalone to network control. | Benefit: The "One-click publishing" feature leverages a dedicated, secure SaaS model. This provides centralized, granular control over an entire network of Digital Signage Kiosks from a single web interface, eliminating physical site visits and distribution costs. |
Scheduling & Power Management | Managed by a dedicated Real-Time Clock (RTC) chip integrated onto the main board. The software interface allows daily/weekly scheduling for Timed Play and Timing Boot/Shutdown. | Benefit: Ensures precise, energy-saving power management (down to the second) independent of network connectivity. This maximizes the panel's lifespan and guarantees compliance with store opening hours, even after unexpected power outages. |
Versatile Media Support | Handles FHD 1080P video formats (MKV, MP4, MOV) via the RK3288's hardware video decoder. Office formats (PPT/PDF/DOC) require an integrated rendering engine layer. | Benefit: The dedicated hardware acceleration guarantees smooth, high-fidelity video playback, reserving the CPU for OS tasks. The ability to display business formats (PDF/PPT) allows non-technical users to utilize existing marketing collateral instantly on the Digital Signage Kiosk. |
Advanced Display Modes | Supports Split-Screen layouts (1 to 10 sections) and display Rotation (90/270 degrees) via graphics buffer rotation at the OS level. | Benefit: Maximizes screen utility by running multiple independent media types (e.g., live video, RSS feed, static ad) simultaneously. Rotation ensures the content is optimized for the physical orientation of the Floor Standing Digital Signage Kiosk. |
Connectivity | Equipped with Dual-band WiFi (2.4G/5G), Bluetooth 4.2, and a reliable RJ45 Ethernet port. | Benefit: Dual-band WiFi is crucial: 5G handles high-bandwidth content pushes (like 4K video) over short distances, while the RJ45 connection guarantees maximum security and stability in enterprise environments. |
