Digital Signage is the technology for those displays hanging out from the walls that we’re starting to see in every building, and which are useful to display announcements or ads.
There have been a number of people who have contacted me about dynpres, my solution to free scalable Digital Signage which I also released as GPL. But one day a team from University of Seville contacted me to let me know that they were developing a new software called Oculus, based on the same ideas as Dynpres but extending the functionality and usability in a great degree.
This has been one of these pleasurable things of engaging in free software projects, solving others’ problems and knowing that your code or ideas are being extended and that the model really works is really great.
If you need a Free Digital Signage solution you may want to have a look at the Oculus project, as opposed to my barebones solution editing bash and LaTeX.
