Digital signage is on the rise. Not surprisingly, since it offers a number of major benefits, such as more sales, improved customer experience, better service and stronger brand awareness. As such, digital signage is a crucial tool for customer targeting.
Common philosophy
Together, Barco and dZine can provide total value-added systems for the digital signage market. “Barco and dZine have a common philosophy of bringing innovative, customer-centric digital signage systems to the high and mid-range markets via partnerships with leading distributors and resellers.
By teaming up, both our companies will be able to open up new sales opportunities, which will strengthen our position in the digital signage market for years to come,” stated Paul Matthijs, Vice President of Barco’s Video and Lighting Solutions Division.

Product portfolio
dZine has developed a unique platform - including both hardware and software - that can be used for small (< 5 displays) as well as large (>1000 displays) installations.
- Page Editor: content creation
Page Editor software includes all the necessary tools to create attractive and dynamic content for your display information system - from basic texts and images to videos and flash objects.
- IDS Server: content distribution & scheduling
Once the content has been created, it has to be ‘transported’ to the displays. The IDS Server controls the players from a distance, so content can be adjusted at any time and at almost any place. On top of that, the content can be shared among several users.
- DISplayer: content visualization
The DISplayer is a reliable platform for visualizing content on any type of display that can be used in a fixed or mobile application.
