Advantech, the leading embedded platform and integration services provider, announces the cooperation with Net Display Systems (NDS) and the compatibility of ARK-DS220, ARK-DS520 and ARK-DS762 with NDS PADS digital signage software. This certified solution was first showcased at ISE 2013.

NDS has successfully tested and certified Advantech’s digital signage media players ARK-DS520, ARK-DS220 and ARK-DS762. PADS software enables easy management of signage content via its native data integration and support for interactivity features.

The compatibility of these players with NDS PADS software ensures system integrators and end users to set up a reliable digital signage application in no time.

Among the three certified Advantech media players, ARK-DS220 and ARK-DS520 are powered by an Intel Atom processor with integrated NVIDIA ION2 graphic module for Full HD playback. ARK-DS220 is compliant with OPS, its slot-in module design effectively lowers deployment and field maintenance costs to simplify device installation, usage, maintenance and upgrades. From the same series, ARK-DS520 features a rich combination of video output interfaces for dual display, is highly expandable via the internal Mini PCIe interface and has a low-profile design for easy installation. On the high end side, the ARK-762 combines high processing and graphics performance (Intel® 3rd Gen Core i) with rich I/O and extra flexibility via optional expansion modules. The ARK-DS762 can support 3 x HDMI independent displays, and supports Microsoft® Kinect™ technology.

At Advantech’s stand during ISE 2013, NDS has demonstrated its PADS software compatibility with the ARK-DS520 and ARK-DS762 as restaurant and transportation signage applications. This seamless integration can be applicable in various industries such as retail, corporate, education and more.

“We are excited and honored to be a certified signage software provider for Advantech” says Sjoerd van Leeuwen, CCO at NDS. “Our partners and customers choose the powerful PADS4 software for its versatility, and require high performance hardware to drive their content. Advantech players perform very well with our software”.

NDS PADS software and Advantech’s ARK-DS762 media player provide an ideal platform for pro AV markets regardless of the complexity of the signage project, together Advantech and NDS will deliver a professional and reliable digital signage solution that lowers the total cost of ownership and meets customer demand.
