Embed Signage partners with Vestel for new Android 9.0 SoC displays

The move sees Vestel’s latest SoC displays capable of integrating embed’s scheduling, visual builder, widgets, apps, plug-ins, analytics, and much more.

Vestel’s MB400-based display ranges will launch throughout 2023, denoted by a + suffix on the model range, with Exertis UK already holding stock of the PR+ series high-brightness displays boasting 700nits and 24/7 operation capability.

The MB400 Android SoC delivers high-performance playback with robust reliability in a signage-ready, commercial device, making Vestel display and embed software a very attractive display + CMS software package offering.

“When it comes to Android SoC displays, this is by far the best performance product we’ve tested so far,” commented Drew Harding at embed. “We are delighted to be working with Vestel on this range of displays and have plans to integrate our CMS further across Vestel’s comprehensive display ranges and screen sizes.”

While the Android SoC product range is attractive, resellers and end users can also still opt for the OPS or SDM options running Windows OS in certain Vestel displays. This option offers enhanced capabilities within embed, including connection to external sensors such as presence or lift/place + learn. It also enables control content changes over IP from another compatible Embed device or external control systems such as Crestron.

Comments Tim Matthews, Senior Product Manager at Vestel Visual Solutions: “We are extremely pleased to add Embed Signage capability to our SoC display ranges this year. The package offers resellers and end-users an ever more flexible display and CMS solution package, making for an unbeatable combination of features, performance, and exceptional value.”

The move also builds on both brands’ commitment to sustainability. Vestel’s commitment to sustainability includes the pledge to reduce 1000+ tonnes of plastic used in their production and packaging of products, reduce the use of virgin plastics, and achieve net zero. Embed actively undertakes tree planting (both through physical volunteer work and contributions to global reforestation projects) and contributes to carbon reduction projects meeting UN sustainability targets.
