JAPAN and ASIA

PANASONIC Digital Communications selected Tycoon 3.03 to network digital signs for their customers. This co-operation started with a first project of replacing the existing technology used to power the promo screens in the Tokyo subway.

GAME WIZARD uses up to eight screens per shop, each Tycoon player powering two screens with different content by means of a dual head video card and Tycoons scalable MOZAIC function.

BRISBANE INFO CENTER uses Tycoon Spy for interactive signage; at night Tycoon powers retro projection window signage, once the shop window is being “touched” the signage content switches to the interactive application, and upon time-out switches back to promotional messaging.

EUROPE

METRO deployed Tycoon in the Belgian Subsidiaries of the MAKRO professional retail chain in both Food and Non food sections. Tycoon SQL is managing and feedback reporting plasma screens and 45 stand alone LCD screens that upload their play lists over the existing wireless in-store networks from proxy servers in each store.

SONY EUROPE selected Tycoon to empower a 350 sites network of the franchised Renmans butchery stores annexed to the ALDI supermarkets spread over Belgium, Luxemburg and Northern France. Content and network are managed by three different administrators, of which two are responsible for the content by language group and Sony Retail is managing the technical maintenance from their HQ in Brussels, Belgium. Apart from daily promotional signage, this project is good example of effective commercial usage of Tycoon with a boosting effect on turnover of the promoted articles: by using the SB32 plug in, the ticket queue-counter is displayed seamlessly into the promotions as a permanent graphical overlay being controlled by the shop personnel. At the touch of a customised button the to-be-served ticket numbering increments and can be reset upon changing the paper ticket rolls.
