  • Scala Launches Quintet, an All-in-One AI-Driven Restaurant Automation Solution

    [ad_1]

    Five Components of Quintet Deliver Self-Order Convenience, Improved Accuracy and Efficiency


    MALVERN, Pa., May 19, 2025 (Newswire.com)
    –
    Scala today announced a new all-in-one solution, Scala Quintet, which delivers improved speed of service, order accuracy, back-of-house efficiency, and significantly improved uplift and sales conversion for the QSR sector. Scala Quintet launches with a focus on quick service restaurants and will expand to additional sectors who have a need for self-service applications that optimize consumer service times, labor efficiency, and personalized guest experiences that help improve the bottom line.

    The Quintet platform was built leveraging Scala’s extensive visual display and guided sales experience, AI optimization and best-in-class intuitive user experience methodology, giving restaurant operators, and managers direct control over the creation, scheduling, and real-time updates of digital menu boards. Quintet includes outward-facing attract window screens, self-order kiosks, kitchen order-management tablets, and order-ready screens/pickup systems. A built-in AI layer personalizes content and order experience updates for digital menu boards and displays, including product descriptions for new and existing items, category tags, labels and bundles, limited-time offers (LTOs), and premium features.

    “Scala Quintet pairs the Scala heritage of using visual displays to convert sales for our customers with our ordering workflow and self-service capabilities to automate and enhance the efficiency of restaurant operations and drive greater profitability,” said Chris Riegel, Chairman of Scala.

    The five components of Scala Quintet introduce fully integrated digital signs and solutions at key points of automation and efficiency for guests and crew:

    • Street-facing digital displays: Attract attention and drive restaurant visits with attention-grabbing content on large-format digital displays, all powered by updates made in Quintet.

    • Indoor and Outdoor Digital menu boards: Clear, compelling content on digital displays at the ordering counter and in the digital drive thru is easily updated in real time. Make full use of dynamic dayparting and AI automation options to drive more sales using Quintet’s intuitive UI, regardless of technical design or content management skills.

    • Self-order kiosk: Kiosks are fully integrated with Quintet’s kitchen management application, ensuring that both guests and crew receive real-time order updates. Once an order is placed, it immediately appears on a kitchen-facing screen for processing, while guests can follow order progress on the menu board.

    • Kitchen order management displays: Quintet allows you to optimize your fast-paced kitchen workflow, tailored to your QSR’s specific operational needs. Your crew has complete control over every step of the preparation process. Additionally, Quintet lets you set up different task-preparation zones throughout the kitchen, streamlining task distribution to the right crew.

    • Order-ready screen/order pickup solution: Customer-facing displays and fixtures, tailored to your restaurant pickup needs. Order-ready screens help the crew drive order accuracy, speed, and high value service experience that brings the customer back. Replacing cluttered, disorganized static fixtures, digital displays provide clarity and order status updates in real time – all customizable and seamlessly organized through Quintet’s interface.

    “There is a need to streamline the disparate technology solutions that QSRs have been introducing to the customer experience since the opportunity with digital menu boards was realized,” said Harry Horn, Vice President Marketing Global at Scala. “Quintet keeps the user experience at the core of its value for both the QSR customer and the kitchen crew. While integrating complex systems, Quintet remains easy to use, easy to update, and fully automated. The solution will benefit many industries looking to optimize efficiency and personalization.”

    Scala, part of the STRATACACHE family of digital solutions companies, debuted the five-component platform in STRATACACHE’s booth #8209 at the National Restaurant Association Show, being held May 17-20 in Chicago.

  • Carousel Digital Signage Achieves TX-RAMP Level 1 Certification

    Carousel Digital Signage Achieves TX-RAMP Level 1 Certification

    [ad_1]

    MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA – Carousel Digital Signage has achieved Level 1 Certification under the Texas Risk and Authorization Management Program (TX-RAMP), a Texas Department of Information Resources (DIR) program that makes governmental technology more secure, cost-effective and forward-looking. The Level 1 Certification approves and recommends Carousel Cloud for use with all state government agencies including higher education community colleges.

    Level 1 Certification is ideal for businesses like Carousel Digital Signage that process low-impact, low-sensitivity data in the cloud for broader public consumption. The certification, valid for three years, confirms Carousel Cloud as a secure and reliable technology partner for education and government facilities that represent two of Carousel Digital Signage’s busiest verticals.

    Carousel Cloud has also just released an updated SOC 2 Type 2 Compliance report, which confirms that Carousel has implemented the appropriate internal controls around security to protect customer data delivered to digital signage end points in the cloud.

    Carolyn Korchik, Director of Information Security and Compliance for Carousel Digital Signage, shares that she and her team built onto its existing SOC 2-approved cloud security framework for cybersecurity to achieve TX-RAMP Level 1 Certification. DIR analyzed all cybersecurity risks and solutions built into the Carousel Cloud framework before approving its certification.

    “TX-RAMP Level 1 Certification requires many of the same controls for active monitoring of security-related procedures, and the certification itself is an assessment of our cybersecurity procedures,” said Korchik. “There is no additional cost to our education and government customers in Texas. As an approved vendor, new customers are assured that we have met DIR’s stringent IT and cloud security requirements, and all necessary policies and controls are built into the Carousel Cloud framework.”

  • Carousel Digital Signage Cuts Through the Noise with Carousel Daily

    Carousel Digital Signage Cuts Through the Noise with Carousel Daily

    [ad_1]

    MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA, April 30, 2024 – Carousel Digital Signage has launched a new media delivery service that will change the way organizations engage with their audiences. Carousel Daily allows organizational leaders to take important messages direct to intended audiences, pushing need-to-know news and information to mobile devices. The service extends the reach of traditional digital signage content well beyond the facility walls, enabling seamless communications to thousands of devices.

    Carousel Daily is a unique initiative that was created to cut through the noise of the workplace or learning environments where essential communications may be overlooked or forgotten. The Carousel Daily flips the script by empowering internal-facing organizations to reach the right audience, at the right place, and at the right time. Delivered to iOS devices, Carousel Daily bulletins are accessible through an app installed on organization-issued or personal devices. 

    Carousel Cloud customers can deliver the same visual communications that they display on their fixed digital signage or create unique feeds specifically designed for more mobile audiences. Carousel Daily Feeds are distributed as links, QR codes or configured via MDM for users. The app allows for the inclusion of external URLs within the feed, seamlessly guiding viewers to essential destinations for tasks such as training completion, video viewing, CEO messages, annual enrollment, and any other matters demanding their attention. The service also provides analytics to help administrators measure audience engagement, including responsiveness to each call to action.

    “The Carousel Daily allows our customers to get the most value out of their communications efforts, and it does so without bombarding audiences with endless feeds full of information they don’t need,” said Eric Henry, President, Carousel Digital Signage. “Users can target people with the precise information they need to act on. Our corporate customers can go straight to the employees to announce a new training, or remind them to sign up for new benefits. Our K12 customers have the flexibility to create alternate feeds for students and parents, and retail operations can send internal updates relevant to store managers. The beauty is that nothing fundamentally changes about how they use Carousel Cloud. Customers use the same scheduling and content management toolsets to reach their audiences in new, exciting and impactful ways.”

    Carousel Daily comes free with a Carousel Cloud subscription and is licensed by audience size to meet the organization’s needs. Carousel Digital Signage partners with JAMF for customers that leverage mobile device management (MDM) services to manage, secure and deploy Carousel Daily onto end-user devices. As Apple Education Partners, Carousel and JAMF are dedicated to bringing the best Apple Experience to education and corporate customers.

    Vivi for Teachers Launches to Bring Free Classroom Technology to Educators

    [ad_1]

    Vivi, the only wireless screen mirroring and digital signage solution purpose-built for education, today announces the launch of Vivi for Teachers. The free web-based application makes it simple for teachers to actively engage with their students using their individual devices and displays. 

    With Vivi for Teachers, students can share their content and screens directly to the classroom display in seconds, without wasting valuable class time finding the right cable or dongle to connect. Vivi for Teachers also includes a built-in virtual whiteboard that students can use to work out problems – encouraging more students to participate by reducing the anxiety often accompanying speaking up in front of peers.

    “A big pushback on tech post-COVID has been that it can easily turn students into passive learners,” says Juliana Finegan, VP Educator Experience at Vivi. “Schools have made big investments in 1:1 devices, but they need to be used effectively to have the intended result – active engagement in learning. Vivi for Teachers offers a free solution to encourage and enable collaboration, peer feedback, and student-driven learning. With it, students can easily share their thinking, show off their creativity, and give class presentations faster and with less stress.” 

    Megan Oliva, 2nd grade teacher in Austin, Texas agrees, sharing that her students “love sharing their work and showing their classmates how they got to an answer. They ask me to use Vivi every day now. It is easy to use for me and my students which is key.” 

    Vivi, which currently helps over 2,000 schools, has subscription-based offerings for schools and districts with additional instructional tools, digital signage, announcements, and emergency alert capabilities. Vivi for Teachers is its first free offering specifically for teachers to encourage student engagement and classroom interaction through wireless screen sharing. Vivi has found that 86% of teachers saw increased student participation and excitement in sharing their work because of using Vivi for Teachers student screen share in their classroom.

  • STRATACACHE and JFKIAT Partner to Bring Passenger Engagement Experiences to Terminal 4

    STRATACACHE and JFKIAT Partner to Bring Passenger Engagement Experiences to Terminal 4

    [ad_1]


    MALVERN, Pa., March 21, 2024 (Newswire.com)
    –
    STRATACACHE and JFKIAT — the operator of Terminal 4 at John F. Kennedy International Airport — today announced that they have partnered to build out an improved passenger experience at T4 as part of the terminal’s redevelopment plans. Throughout the past 11 months, STRATACACHE has helped JFKIAT deploy several innovative technologies throughout T4, with additional developments slated for the rest of the year.

    In March 2023, JFKIAT began working with Scala, part of the STRATACACHE family of technology companies, on the pre-security area of the terminal. Scala’s professional services team worked directly with JFKIAT on all aspects of digital signage innovation in the passenger experience — project discovery, ideation, infrastructure needs, content and creative development, onsite delivery, and ongoing support. Less than two months after the initial on-site discovery, the first digital displays went live.

    “Our partnership to integrate this technology at T4 is our latest move to drive innovation within the terminal to support our best-in-class customer experience and deliver incredible journeys,” said Steve Tukavkin, Vice President of IT & Digital at JFKIAT. “As T4’s traffic has continued to increase and our passengers’ needs and expectations have evolved, it’s more important than ever to make their curb-to-gate experience as seamless as possible. We look forward to this ongoing collaboration with STRATACACHE as the transformation of T4 continues.”

    The teams at STRATACACHE, Scala, and JFKIAT have a shared vision of using tech innovation to improve the overall journey for passengers and to set new industry standards, leading to a successful partnership. Key highlights in phase one of the digital transformation of T4 with STRATACACHE include: 

    ●   Departures area digital video walls and end cap displays: Two 285-foot continuous LED video walls and an additional 120-foot video wall are strategically placed above ticketing. The video walls display valuable passenger information, such as services check-in areas, flight information and airline branding. Additional large-format end cap displays ensure information is visible from every angle.

    ●   Wayfinding: Attention-grabbing digital totems, featuring custom-built enclosures, provide directional messaging, wayfinding and animated instructions, giving information on the two-step, self-check-in process.

    ●   Outdoor curbside displays: Digital displays at the departures-level curbside and arrivals-level walkway improve passenger efficiency by dynamically updating to show the airline logo at the entrance closest to the passenger check-in location, based on real-time flight data.

    ●   Scala Airport Operations Portal: The portal enables flight data integration and manual input/override to automate the scheduling of digital display messaging while ensuring changes in current conditions are updated in real time. The Scala professional services team provided custom integrations to key sources of data and content.

    ●   Digital signage hardware: Scala’s own digital signage media players securely deploy content to 69 endpoint displays.

    “The JFKIAT team put forth an immense and innovative vision for their passenger experience that has, quite frankly, been missing among U.S. airports. Our participation in helping them bring it to life has done as much to energize our culture as we hope it has done for Terminal 4 and the good news is, we are just getting started,” said Mark Mayfield, vice president of STRATACACHE Transportation Division.

    About STRATACACHE 

    STRATACACHE provides a full scope of consumer, audience and passenger engagement technology and services to the world’s largest restaurant, retail, transportation and service companies. STRATACACHE’s digital solutions use smart digital displays, advanced sensors and cutting-edge artificial intelligence to customize the guest experience, enhancing profitability, efficiency, customer satisfaction and speed of service.

  • Vivi Expands into a Whole-School Communication Tool, Launches New Features

    Vivi Expands into a Whole-School Communication Tool, Launches New Features

    [ad_1]

    Today, Vivi, the only wireless screen mirroring and digital signage solution purpose-built for education, announced it has expanded into a communication tool that can connect an entire school. Vivi, which currently helps over 2,000 schools, introduces new Announcements features that extend Vivi’s reach beyond classroom walls. 

    “Schools are communities, but too often students and teachers feel disconnected from school leadership and each other. Existing public address systems can be disruptive and in-person assemblies are not always feasible. Text and video announcements give schools effective and scalable tools for communicating with students and staff throughout the school day,” said Natalie Mactier, Chief Executive Officer, Vivi. 

    With Vivi Video Announcements, a school leader can deliver morning announcements, ad-hoc messaging in response to incoming news, or any other messaging made more powerful with video. Vivi Text Announcements enable a school’s administrative team to send concise, non-disruptive yet noticeable messages, directly to classrooms, common areas, or groups of displays to relay any message to students and staff, without interrupting the flow of instruction.  

    “Having our Building Principals be able to play a live video to all the classroom screens simultaneously creates a chance for a shared experience without the disruption of bringing everyone together physically,” says Kari Moulton, Technology Integration Support Specialist at Bourbonnais Elementary School District #53 in Illinois. “It allows the students to put a name with the faces of the building leadership. It’s a fantastic and scalable way for our building principals to engage with our students and teachers.“ 

    Vivi’s Announcements are combined with Vivi’s Digital Signage for routine, planned communications and Vivi’s Emergency Alerts system for more urgent communications, providing a schoolwide communication platform for leaders to touch base with their community members, remind students of goings-on at school, share timely information, or simply call a student to the office.

  • Enhancing Communication and Safety at American Heritage Charter School with Rise Vision

    Enhancing Communication and Safety at American Heritage Charter School with Rise Vision

    [ad_1]

    Rise Vision, the #1 digital signage software is excited to announce the release of its newest case study featuring American Heritage Charter School. American Heritage Charter School near Idaho Falls, uses Rise Vision to enhance safety and streamline communication channels within its three buildings.

    Josh Siqueiros, the Director of Technology at American Heritage Charter School, was a business IT administrator transplant into the world of education. Josh brought a fresh perspective and a determination to overcome communication challenges he noticed within the school. His background in the business sector equipped him with the skills to navigate the hurdles of implementing new technologies in the educational domain.

    Upon joining American Heritage Charter School, Josh Siquerios identified two major challenges he wanted to tackle: Effective communication and to increase safety.

    To address the communication and safety challenges, Josh explored various solutions. Josh remarked, “Before Rise Vision, [the school] had one TV in a secondary building doing basically a PowerPoint. They weren’t even using that when I got here. They were trying to use freeware… but it was a struggle with compatibility issues.”

    Coming from the business world with his fresh perspective, Josh commented, “Safety messaging was the big thing. We could do better, improve communication, and enhance safety to a higher level than before. Rise Vision was a key part of that goal”.

    Rise Vision caught his attention due to its digital signage capabilities and the potential to enhance communication and safety throughout the school.

    The American Heritage case study showcases the impact of digital signage on communication and safety in an educational setting. The school’s strategic implementation and commitment to leveraging Rise Vision for both safety and general communication provide valuable insights for other educational institutions considering similar solutions.

    For more information about Rise Vision and how it can increase communication and support school safety, visit the company’s website.

  • L.A. City Council to vote on digital signs for Convention Center

    L.A. City Council to vote on digital signs for Convention Center

    [ad_1]

    The Los Angeles City Council will vote Wednesday on a plan to allow large-scale digital signs on the city-owned Convention Center in downtown L.A., a plan embraced by politicians eager for new revenue streams and opposed by foes of the blinking displays.

    Under the ordinance, bright digital signs and other types of advertisements could rise inside and outside the Convention Center. The displays would be allowed in a 68-acre site bounded by Chick Hearn Court, Figueroa Street, Venice Boulevard and the 110 Freeway.

    The vote follows the council’s approval last week of more than 70 digital billboards across L.A. as part of a revenue-sharing agreement with the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority.

    The new ordinance for the Convention Center would allow animated digital signage along Figueroa Street and Chick Hearn Court, as well as digital signage with non-moving images along the back of the Convention Center facing the 110 Freeway, according to the city’s Planning Department.

    Money raised by the digital signs on the Convention Center will help pay for renovations to the center, city officials said.

    Doane Liu, the city’s chief tourism officer, told The Times that one estimate predicted $14.8 million in annual revenue from the signage. He didn’t provide details about when the estimate was completed or who performed it.

    Councilmember Curren Price, whose district includes the Convention Center and L.A. Live, expressed support for the signs in a Dec. 5 letter to the city’s Planning and Land Use Commission.

    “The new sign district will allow us to receive enough revenue to complete the future renovations and expansion of the Los Angeles Convention Center prior to the 2028 Olympics,” he wrote.

    Price’s letter references a separate city initiative to potentially overhaul the Convention Center in time for the 2028 Games. Costs remain an issue, however, and city leaders haven’t made a decision on whether to go forward with a renovation.

    Either way, table tennis and other sports may be played at the Convention Center during the 2028 Olympics, according to city officials.

    More broadly, city leaders want to make L.A. competitive with other major cities that draw big conventions and bring in more tourism dollars.

    Angelina Valencia, a Price representative, said the accurate value of the digital signs at the Convention Center hasn’t been assessed yet.

    Barbara Broide, co-president of the Coalition for a Beautiful Los Angeles, called the proposed digital signs at the Convention Center a “terrible visual assault for Angelenos.”

    “It is a dangerous distraction for those who need to be watching the road,” Broide said.

    Historical preservation expert Kim Cooper also expressed concern over driver safety and light pollution for surrounding neighborhoods. “There’s a potential impact on mental health and sleep,” Cooper said.

    Liu, the city’s chief tourism officer, said that convention customers have been clamoring for the signs. He said that digital displays on the outside of the Convention Center could be used in a variety of ways, including to advertise medical scrubs, for instance, at a nursing convention.

    He also pointed to the large-scale blinking displays that some downtown developers have sought for their residential buildings. “It’s only right” that the Convention Center should also have digital billboards, he said.

  • Pinecrest Academy Utilizes Rise Vision for Dynamic Digital Signage

    Pinecrest Academy Utilizes Rise Vision for Dynamic Digital Signage

    [ad_1]

    Rise Vision, the #1 digital signage software, is excited to announce the release of its newest case study featuring Pinecrest Academy. Pinecrest Academy, an independent college preparatory Catholic school in Georgia, uses Rise Vision using modern technology to enhance communication across their campus. This case study highlights how Pinecrest has successfully implemented digital signage to communicate with its student body population.

    Digital signage is great for communication but only if it’s being used. In the case of Pinecrest Academy, there were countless missed opportunities to increase communication and engage with students with their previous digital signage software. The software was not being used and there were blank TVs on the wall.

    Championed by the IT Manager, John Huynh sought a digital signage solution to improve communication in Pinecrest’s common areas and hallways. His intent was to make the most of the displays the school had and ensure the management was user-friendly. The user-friendliness and cost-effectiveness made Rise Vision digital signage software an attractive choice for their school. With Rise Vision, Pinecrest can now use digital signage for almost everything from sharing photos, to advertising and promoting events, sports games, and clubs.

    One notable aspect of the implementation is the impact of communication within the student body. John Huynh says that he knows their communication strategy works, “…you know that [students are] looking at [the displays]… So you throw a couple photos, you throw an announcement, you throw a couple more photos, … clearly, they read the announcement, you know, because they were looking at it, and so it’s actually a good way of us [communicating] to them.”

    Implementing Rise Vision also streamlined the school’s information sources. Pinecrest is a Google powered school, so having the ability for their digital signage to integrate with Google’s platform makes a difference in managing and delegating content creation. John delegates content creation to various school stakeholders.

    Incorporating Rise Vision at Pinecrest Academy has transformed their on campus digital communication strategy, allowing the school to connect and share dynamic content seamlessly, ultimately enhancing their students’ educational experience.

    Mvix has been selected by The Boys & Girls Club of Greater Holyoke, one of the oldest affiliates of the greater Boys & Girls Clubs of America, to power their digital signage network. The goal of the display network is to engage parents and club members to increase participation in club events and activities.  

    The Holyoke Club serves more than 350 youths daily and operates 3 satellite branches, including a teen mentorship program. The Club runs childcare services and several academic and recreational after-school programs for kindergarten through high school students.

    The ease of use and features of the Mvix digital signage software were very compelling. It made it easy to update and add content on our own.

    The Challenge

    The staff at Holyoke Boys & Girls Club pinned announcements on cork boards but saw very little engagement from parents and kids.

    The Club also lacked a way to physically showcase multimedia content that the kids were creating. The content included video projects, photography, and digital art.

    The goal of the digital signage project was to further expand the technological capacities of the club, while simultaneously creating a better engagement channel with parents and the children they served.

    The Solution

    The club identified areas with a lot of foot traffic and high dwell times and installed networked digital signs powered by the Mvix digital signage software.

    The software offered:

    • multimedia integrations – the club displayed branded videos and student projects
    • event integrations – automated event listings were easily displayed in real-time
    • remote management – the IT Director can instantly update content from the main office

    The Results

    The Holyoke Boys & Girls Club staff has reported:

    • parents have quick access to club schedules and get a view of what their children are accomplishing
    • parents also show increased engagement in volunteer activities and chaperoned events
    • club members show greater interest in activities and projects that are showcased on the displays   

    “The ease of use and features of the Mvix digital signage software were very compelling,” said Victor Rojas, the IT Director at The Boys & Girls Club of Greater Holyoke. “It made it easy to update and add content on our own.”

    The club also shared curated content via the Mvix platform. With the 2018 Winter Olympics feed, the club displayed medal counts as well as news and fun tidbits from the games.

    “We’re thrilled that the Boys & Girls Club has been able to take full advantage of our digital signage content integrations,” said A. Jay, Senior Director of Business Relations at Mvix. “Their organization is already very tech savvy, and adding digital signage to their repertoire gives them another powerful tool to engage their club members and parents.”

    ​The Mvix Docket Display Systems are driven by their simple yet innovative Court Docket app. The app pulls case information from a docket database (in CSV, XML or JSON files) or case management system, arranges the data in a format that is attractive and easy to read, then displays the information on a digital screen. Updates made to the docket are automatically reflected on the digital displays. 

    Designed to empower court clerks, the intuitive docket displays can get very granular in the case information they display. In addition to names, case numbers, courtrooms and time, the docket displays can also show a description of the hearing, attorney information, building/floor, and the presiding judge. Clerks can even display custom information that’s specific to their court e.g. police officer names in traffic court.

    With the digital docket displays, courts can enjoy faster throughput and more effective outcomes. The digital case information displays will reduce overall operating costs by eliminating the consumption of paper and printer supplies. 

    They will also increase the efficiency of court clerks by cutting down on the time and effort required to display case information. Real-time information can be rendered across a bank of docket displays, all from a centralized location. The displays can be configured to show different information relative to their location. For example, a display in the courthouse lobby can show the docket of all judges, while a display in the hallway outside a courtroom can show the docket for that specific judge. 

    The docket displays will also improve the court experience. When visitors can quickly find the information they need, congestion and crowding in high traffic areas will be eliminated. The digital real estate provided by the displays enables clerks to display multiple content at the same time e.g. show the docket alongside weather, news, court announcements, etc. Screens at the exit/entrance can also show traffic information. Displaying such relevant information will further improve the court experience. 

    One of the unique features of the Mvix Docket Display System is its versatility. In the event of an emergency, the displays can be used as emergency messaging solutions. Emergency alerts, including CAP alerts from local and national sources, can take over the displays and override current content to provide information about the emergency and instructions on what to do. 

    “The Docket Display System does an excellent job of improving court performance through improved coordination and communication,” said A. Jay, the Mvix Senior Director of Business Relations. “This is a cost effective tool that every court needs especially in this digital age. It meets the needs of court personnel and visitors, and executes impeccably.”
