CINCINNATI — With the win­ter Olympics cur­rently under­way and recent record amounts of snow­fall, you might find your­self inspired to take to the slopes this year. Thanks to a local com­pany, your expe­ri­ence at Cincinnati’s clos­est ski resort is now more infor­ma­tive and acces­si­ble for ski experts and novices alike.

Elec­tronic Art (www.electronicart.com), an inter­ac­tive agency spe­cial­iz­ing in touch screen kiosks, dig­i­tal sig­nage and inte­grated web­sites, recently inte­grated dig­i­tal sig­nage hard­ware and screen man­age­ment soft­ware at Per­fect North Slopes (www.perfectnorth.com) in Lawrence­burg, Indiana.

The mul­ti­ple LCD screens installed through­out Per­fect North’s facil­ity allows the resort to pro­vide mes­sag­ing to its guests on impor­tant top­ics such as ski lessons, upcom­ing events, ski shop pro­mo­tions, local weather, trail maps, and any­thing else a win­ter sports enthu­si­ast might need to know.

Addi­tion­ally, Elec­tronic Art inte­grated Sti­nova soft­ware, which will allow for the man­age­ment of media con­tent, playlists, and sched­ules on each player/screen com­bi­na­tion. With Sti­nova soft­ware, Per­fect North can dis­trib­ute dif­fer­ent con­tent to screens in sep­a­rate areas of the facil­ity and can even break the con­tent on the screen into mul­ti­ple zones of dif­fer­ent sizes, so var­i­ous items can be fea­tured on sep­a­rate zones of the screen.

“Dig­i­tal sig­nage and Sti­nova soft­ware are a great fit for Per­fect North,” said Tim Burke, Pres­i­dent of Elec­tronic Art. “This sys­tem allows for vir­tu­ally end­less multi-media com­mu­ni­ca­tion pos­si­bil­i­ties. Per­fect North can now pro­gram dif­fer­ent con­tent to be played at cer­tain times of the day, week, or month. The IP mul­ti­cast server will let them broad­cast video from one source to mul­ti­ple screens. For exam­ple, they could broad­cast a live snow­board­ing com­pe­ti­tion hap­pen­ing out­side to screens around the whole facil­ity. Over­all, this will improve the flow of infor­ma­tion, let Per­fect North get cre­ative in their mes­sag­ing, and pro­vide a whole new level of ser­vice to their guests.”
