- ViewSonic announced a partnership at Digital Signage Expo (DSE) 2010 with Scala that will enable ViewSonic to offer customers the broadest range of Scala-compatible digital signage devices on the market today.
- According to ViewSonic, Scala has certified its preconfigured PC-based Scala-ready player, as well as a line of solid state Scala-enabled media appliances that are compatible with Scala Release 5.
- “This offers customers a true one-stop shop, covering the widest range of pre-configured Scala-certified playback devices of anyone in the world,” said Jeff Porter, executive vice president of Scala.
- This includes support for “audio-only” players, wireless photo frames, standard definition (480p) players, high-definition (1080p) players, as well as two full-PC compatible media players — the NMP-700 features a core 2 duo processor with Intel GM45 graphics, while the VOT132 features a dual core Atom processor with NVIDIA ION graphics. This partnership allows the companies to significantly reduce the overall system costs for users.
