Vua sandwich shop digital menu board installation

We recently did an install at a new Bánh mì quick-serve on St-Denis in downtown Montreal called Vua. For those who may not be familiar with the Bánh mì, it is a type of Vietnamese sub that combines thinly sliced pickled carrots and daikon, cucumbers, cilantro, chili peppers, pâté, mayonnaise and various meat fillings or tofu on a baguette made with both wheat and rice flour (yum, tasty).

The installation includes a 5-screen digital menu board with some beautiful thin-bezel screens powered by a couple of our players controlled by our new MenuView content management system. MenuView is a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) offering that allows our customers to manage menus and product items via a web browser.

We also installed a couple other screens which capture digital cable and combine it in-restaurant promotional messages.

The press release describing Vua’s digital menu boards is below but we’ve got a couple pictures of the install here first for your enjoyment.

CampaignManager now features Intel Active Management Technology

Ryarc CampaignManager 2010 with Intel® Advanced Management TechnologyRyarc, our Australian technology partner, has updated their CampaignManager 2010 digital signage software platform to version 2.2.2 and it now features Intel® Active Management Technology (AMT).

Four related management functions have been added to CampaignManager 2010:

  • AMT Discovery – Providing auto-discovery of Intel AMT presence.
  • AMT Asset Retrieval – Providing auto-retrieval of system asset information.
  • Remote Power Commands – Allowing you to send players remote power up/down and restart commands.
  • AMT Agent Scheduling – Remote scheduling of power up commands.

As an authorized Channel Partner, Mirada Media provides sale, support and training of Ryarc’s easy-to-use and robust digital signage software suite; a French-language version is available too. If you’d like any information on how CampaignManager 2010 fits into your digital signage project or how AMT can help you manage your network, contact us, and we’d be delighted to help you.
