Digital signage, i.e. the use of digital screens for advertising and information purposes, is spreading to more and more industries and application areas. But also, interactive appliances with touch screens, so-called kiosks, are constantly spreading. Both application types have been successfully served by the German-based software development company mirabyte with its products "FrontFace for Public Displays" and "FrontFace for Touch Kiosks" for many years. Thousands of customers around the world rely on their proven solutions when it comes to the implementation of advertising, information or welcome screens, but also for interactive terminals, such as employee information systems in companies or multimedia kiosks for visitors of museums and exhibitions.
With the release of the completely redesigned software solution FrontFace 4, both non-interactive as well as interactive applications can now be implemented using only one product without requiring any programming knowledge. Dr. Joachim Schwieren, managing director of mirabyte, explains: "We have seen a clear convergence between classic digital signage systems and interactive touchscreen applications among our customers in recent years. With FrontFace 4 we now offer an integrated solution that covers both types of applications, which has a solid and well-designed architecture and therefore is also very well positioned for future developments and innovations!"
With FrontFace 4, users can intuitively create digital screen solutions for a wide variety of use cases and industries without requiring any programming knowledge. But also, for system integrators and creative agencies FrontFace represents an interesting platform, because unlike most competitor products, it does not rely on the Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) approach but allows to be used autonomously and permanently without any running costs.
The FrontFace software consists of two components, the FrontFace Assistant for creating, maintaining and managing the system and content, and the FrontFace Player for playing back or consuming content by the end user on the screen(s).
FrontFace is licensed per player system. A free, fully functional trial version can be downloaded from the mirabyte homepage. There are also video tutorials and quick-start tutorials available that help even less IT-savvy users to get started successfully.
