Lanner has released the LEC-7030, an interactive platform aimed at the narrowcasting segment of the digital signage market. New features of the LEC-7030 include both S-Video and RCA Audio inputs. Additional features include an onboard 1.6GHz Intel Atom with VGA and DVI-D video outs. The VGA and DVI-D video outputs can be connected to any digital signage screen to produce vivid video and audio. Utilizing both outputs can increase the surface area of the message and can increase signage effectiveness. Applications include high impact advertising screens in locations such as shopping malls, tourist destinations and mass transport.
By designing the LEC-7030 to have both analog S-Video and RCA Audio inputs, Lanner has enabled additional signage functionality. By setting an external camera connected via the S-Video port, this platform can record data regarding customer viewership- allowing you to act upon that data to increase your signage effectiveness. Unlike IP cameras, the S-Video input can provide high quality video footage at a low price, without effecting network capabilities.
Hardware specifications for the LEC-7030 include an onboard 1.6GHz Intel Atom and an Intel 945GSE+ICH7M chipset. The LEC-7030 can hold up to 2GBs of RAM through a single SODIMM socket. It supports one 2.5” SATA HDD, DOM, and CompactFlash. As for I/O ports there are 2 x RS-232 COM, 1 x Digital I/O, 4 x USB 2.0 and 1 RJ45 GbE port. In addition to the RCA inputs there are RCA outputs for high quality sound.
The LEC 7030 has been tested for a temperature range between -10 to 55 ˚C. It is compatible with both Linux kernel 2.14.6 and above, along with both Windows XPE and Windows XP 32-bit.
