BrightSign teams with Converge Retail for LCD touch displays

February 28, 2019

BrightSign has partnered with Converge Retail to provide Bluefin LCD touch displays with BrightSign's HS123 system-on-a-chip solution for Converge Retail's lineup of inline, tabletop and standalone retail displays. These 13.3-inch displays will allow customers to browse various products, compare prices, check availability and more, according to a press release.

End users can integrate multiple displays into a single fixture with the Bluefin solution, such as using one touchscreen tablet as the primary customer interface while a larger display shows off the customer's product selection and customization in real time, according to the release.

"The BrightSign/Bluefin solution is ideal in that it's rugged and stable enough to withstand the rigors of near-constant use in a retail environment,"  Paul Chapuis, CEO of Converge Retail, said in the release. "Purpose- built signage hardware running a dedicated, commercial-grade operating system is the ideal solution for our business as we turn our attention to larger-scale rollouts."
