Introducing our Commercial Visual Solutions

Wherever we are, be that at work, at home, travelling or shopping, screens have become an intrinsic part of our everyday lives. They are used in so many ways. Whether that is enabling video conferences at the desk and in meeting spaces, advertising in retail, displaying IPTV in stadiums and hotels or even providing interactive menus in restaurants, screens are something we constantly use. To accommodate a wide variety of use cases, these products come in many different formats. They are more than just the displays we see every day. They are comprised of presentation systems, video conferencing components and have become integrated into a networked ecosystem.

Whilst visual solutions are often the centrepiece of an audio visual (AV) system, they are usually part of a wider, integrated system consisting of distribution, audio, and control technologies. Together, these components help organisations achieve a wide range of objectives, be that optimising the meeting room experience, managing a global digital signage network, or controlling multiple sources of information in command & control settings.

The examples are vast and to ensure your project requirements are captured correctly and installed to specification you need a trusted partner you can rely on.

If you are seeking professional guidance for your project and would prefer to speak directly with an expert, please do not hesitate to get in touch. Our team are on hand to discuss your requirements so why not get the ball rolling today.

Interactive Displays

For a solution that was quickly adopted in the classroom , the commercial use of interactive displays has increased dramatically in recent years. Reduction in prices, enhancements in performance and the integration with platforms such as Microsoft Teams, Webex and Zoom have led to a rise in adoption in both corporate and public sector environments.

Today, interactive whiteboards are used in a variety of ways. We’ve seen mobile solutions such as the Samsung Flip replace the traditional flip chart to enhance impromptu collaboration sessions. Fully integrated boardroom solutions such as the Clevertouch Pro series can help bring ideas to life and unified communications platforms such as the Cisco Webex Board are used as sophisticated digital canvases to connect distributed workforces.

Digital Signage

Digital signage is something we see almost every day. Whether you are travelling, at work, shopping, or using public services, digital signage is all around us. It provides organisations with an incredibly flexible way to engage, entertain and inform their audiences.

Today, digital signage comes in all shapes and sizes. From LED and LCD screens and interactive displays to large, big impact visuals utilising projectors or video walls. Content and distribution can be managed centrally with ease, whether that is updating corporate communications across multiple offices, providing wayfinding in hospitals, airports and train stations or advertising in hundreds of retail outlets across the globe.

IPTV

IPTV, or Internet Protocol Television traditionally refers to the ability to distribute television channels across a network. This is achieved by encoding signals from terrestrial, cable or satellite transmissions into IP streams. In reality, IPTV solutions are not just limited to TV distribution, they can be used to transmit radio, DVD/Blu-ray, Video on Demand (VoD), digital signage and web content signals to a variety of display types.

IPTV is commonly found in hospitality, enabling the likes of bars, hotels, and stadiums to distribute TV throughout their buildings. Outside of hospitality it is used by blue light organisations such as the police or ambulance services, who monitor local and national news channels from their control rooms. In the corporate setting we have seen IPTV facilitate employee training with VoD content. There are a wide range of use cases for IPTV so if this is something you are considering, please get in touch with our team.

Wireless Presentation
and Conferencing

Wherever you are working, be that a meeting space, a classroom, or a large-scale venue such as an auditorium, getting your content on screen to present and collaborate has become an expectation. With the growing popularity of BYOD, wireless presentation systems have become commonplace in the spaces we work. They enable teams to collaborate quickly and easily, from any device without the need for specialist cables and adaptors.

Today, these wireless presentation capabilities have been extended to facilitate wireless conferencing in your spaces. This evolution in BYOD solutions enable users to walk into any space and control the video conference and meeting room peripherals from their own device. By partnering with key manufacturers including Barco, Mersive and Crestron, Cinos are perfectly placed to deliver wireless presentation and conferencing in your spaces.

Networked Video

Historically to transmit video signals across a building or throughout a wider estate, organisations would have to invest in expensive matrix switchers and cabling. Even though this was possible, it was not pragmatic or scalable for large scale deployments such as in hospitality or stadiums.

Networked video, or AV over IP video distribution provides organisations with a simple, scalable, and cost-effective way to transmit video to an infinite number of locations. These solutions, such as DM NVX from Crestron, deliver high quality video, audio, and control signals over long distances with low latency, making it ideal for large scale deployments of digital signage, IPTV and video streaming. With AV over IP, your video travels as far as your network does.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is networked digital signage and how does it work?

Networked digital signage enables organisations to manage and distribute content across one or hundreds of displays from a central platform. Instead of updating individual screens manually, content such as announcements, dashboards, videos, wayfinding information, advertisements and live data feeds can be uploaded, scheduled and deployed remotely through a digital signage content management system (CMS). The system typically consists of the display, a media player and management software, all connected via a secure network.

This approach gives organisations greater flexibility and control over their visual communications. Corporate businesses can deliver internal communications across multiple offices, retailers can manage promotions across entire store estates, while healthcare, transport and public sector organisations can provide real-time information and wayfinding to visitors. Cinos partners with leading digital signage providers including Appspace and BrightSign, alongside commercial display manufacturers such as PPDS (Philips Professional Displays), Sony SHARP, and Samsung, to deliver scalable digital signage solutions that are easy to manage, highly reliable and tailored to the needs of each organisation.

How do I manage and update content across multiple digital signage screens?

Most modern digital signage solutions are managed through a centralised content management system (CMS), allowing organisations to update content across a single display or an entire estate of screens from one location. Users can upload images, videos, announcements, dashboards and live data feeds, then schedule when and where content appears. Many commercial displays now run Android-based operating systems with built-in apps and signage capabilities, while dedicated media players can provide additional functionality, security and performance for larger deployments.

For organisations managing multiple locations or more complex communications requirements, advanced platforms such as Appspace and BrightSign offer powerful content management and distribution tools. These solutions enable teams to publish content across digital signage networks, integrate with existing business systems, automate content updates and manage permissions for different users. Appspace can even extend communications beyond digital signage to channels such as Microsoft Teams, email and mobile applications, helping deliver consistent messaging across the organisation. Whether you’re managing a handful of meeting room displays or a global network of screens, Cinos can help design, deploy and support a digital signage platform that is simple to manage, scalable and aligned to your communication objectives.

What does a video wall installation involve?

A successful audio visual video wall installation begins long before the screens are mounted. The process typically starts with a site survey and requirements assessment to understand how the video wall will be used, the viewing distances involved, environmental conditions and any integration requirements. This ensures the right technology is selected, whether that is an LCD video wall, direct view LED solution or a more specialist display platform. Consideration is also given to content sources, network infrastructure, audio requirements and the control systems needed to manage the environment effectively.

Once the solution has been designed, installation includes display mounting, cabling, signal distribution, system configuration and testing. Depending on the application, the video wall may be integrated with digital signage platforms, collaboration technologies, IPTV systems or specialist video wall management solutions. For example, corporate environments may require digital signage and presentation capabilities, while command and control environments often need advanced source management, operator control and real-time visualisation tools. At Cinos, we manage the entire lifecycle of the project, from design and deployment through to user training and ongoing support and maintenance.

What makes Cinos a leading video wall specialist?

We have delivered video wall solutions for the Government Property Agency within high-profile operational spaces, alongside flagship projects including DHL’s Centre of Excellence, the British Airways Crisis Management Centre and numerous control room environments across both the private sector and blue light organisations.

Combined with our expertise in complementary technologies such as AV-over-IP and video wall management solutions including VuWall’s Trx platform, Cinos is uniquely positioned to deliver end-to-end video wall solutions tailored to each customer’s operational requirements. This experience is demonstrated through projects for organisations including MSC Cruises and Suffolk Fire and Rescue Service, where advanced video wall management capabilities provide users with intuitive control of multiple information sources across complex operational environments.

What is the difference between LCD video walls and LED video walls?

LCD and LED video walls are both designed to create large-format visual displays, but they achieve this in different ways and are suited to different applications. LCD video walls are constructed using multiple commercial display panels arranged together to create a single canvas. They offer excellent image quality, are highly cost-effective and are ideal for environments such as corporate offices, meeting spaces, reception areas and control rooms where content is viewed at typical room distances. While modern LCD solutions feature ultra-narrow bezels, a visible join between screens will still be present.

LED video walls, often referred to as Direct View LED, use individual LED modules to create a seamless display surface with no visible bezels. They can be scaled to virtually any size and deliver exceptional brightness, colour performance and viewing angles, making them particularly well-suited to high-impact environments such as corporate atriums, public spaces, retail environments, experience centres and large event venues. Although LED solutions typically require a higher initial investment, they offer greater design flexibility and can create truly immersive visual experiences.

The right choice depends on your objectives, viewing distances, environment and budget. At Cinos, we assess each project’s specific requirements before recommending the most appropriate solution, helping organisations select the technology that delivers the best balance of performance, scalability and long-term value. Whether that’s an LCD video wall for operational visualisation or a large-scale LED installation for maximum impact, our team can guide you through the available options from manufacturers such as Sony, Philips, Samsung, and Leyard and design a solution tailored to your requirements.

What is commercial IPTV and where is it used?

Commercial IPTV (Internet Protocol Television) enables organisations to distribute TV channels, video content and other media across their network infrastructure. Unlike traditional systems that rely on dedicated coaxial cabling, IPTV converts content into IP streams that can be delivered to displays throughout a building or across multiple locations. In addition to live TV, modern IPTV platforms can distribute digital signage, radio channels, video-on-demand content, corporate communications and other multimedia content from a central management platform.

IPTV is used across a wide range of industries and environments. In hospitality, it allows hotels to provide live TV, guest information and entertainment services to bedrooms, reception areas and communal spaces. Stadiums, bars and restaurants use IPTV to distribute live broadcasts to multiple screens, while corporate organisations often display news channels, financial information and company communications in reception areas, breakout spaces and executive offices. IPTV is also widely used in control room environments, where news and information feeds can be monitored alongside operational systems to support informed decision-making.

At Cinos, we design and deploy IPTV solutions tailored to each organisation’s requirements, installing the IPTV screens and integrating the platform with wider AV technologies such as digital signage, video walls and networked video distribution to create flexible, scalable and easy-to-manage visual communication environments.

How do I choose the right commercial display for my organisation?

Choosing the right commercial display starts with understanding how it will be used. A meeting room display has very different requirements to a digital signage screen, control room display or large-format visual solution. Factors such as screen size, brightness, operating hours, viewing distance, content type and mounting location should all be considered. For example, organisations running digital signage networks or public information displays may require commercial-grade screens designed for extended or 24/7 operation, while collaboration spaces may benefit from interactive displays that support content sharing and hybrid working.

It’s also important to consider long-term efficiency and sustainability. Modern commercial displays offer a range of energy-saving features, power scheduling capabilities and remote management tools that can help reduce operating costs. Some manufacturers have also introduced more environmentally conscious production methods and materials, helping organisations align their technology investments with wider sustainability objectives. Selecting the right display can therefore deliver benefits beyond image quality alone, improving reliability, reducing energy consumption and simplifying ongoing management.

With top-tier accreditations and partnerships with leading display manufacturers, Cinos is perfectly positioned to help organisations identify the most suitable solution for their requirements and budget. Whether you’re deploying a single meeting room display, outfitting a digital signage network or delivering a large-scale visual communications project, our team can advise on the most appropriate technology, secure competitive pricing and manage the installation, configuration and ongoing support of your solution.
