Introduction
The Roku BrightSigns are complete standalone Digital Sign or Kiosk Controllers that can play content from standard Flash memory cards. BrightSigns have uniquely high quality video playback. This is achieved via professional quality decoders and a scaler that can produce crisp clean 1920x1080 interlaced video from high definition mpeg sources on an HD2000, and 1024x768 video on a VGA monitor from standard definition mpeg sources on an HD600. Still video/pictures can be displayed natively in high definition modes. The BrightSign can be used in looping or interactive modes while displaying video and images on almost any standard or high definition display. It has no moving parts, is completely digital, is compatible with standard media authoring software, and is very reliable. It is intended as a key component of a kiosk, tradeshow display or retail display, and can often be used to replace a PC. Reliability, durability, and flexibility in playing video, audio, and photos make it ideal for other applications as well.
