[Company Name] Solution Design
Tripleplay’s proposed solution is proven, reliable, cost effective, fully integrated and scalable. As Tripleplay employs its own software development team it is constantly evolving its solutions to meet the needs of our clients in all industries.

TripleSign provides the ability to display a combination of video(standard/high definition), text, images, live data feeds (via RSS) from the client’s intranet, displaying of web pages and live TV to screens through the use of an IP set top box (STB) or Samsung SSP screen, based on a pre-set playlist. It provides a media rich environment for delivering a range of services including information, messages, advertising, corporate branding, promotions, broadcast TV and recorded videos. The system can operate as a stand-alone application displaying text and images or be integrated with Tripleplay’s IPTV system, TripleTV to provide a live television broadcast as part of the screen layout. Through its easy to use yet sophisticated security system screen layouts and schedules, it can be managed from any PC within the clients' network through a web interface. TripleSign content scheduling system allows the content to be changed, customised and targeted at specific clients or groups. The system provides the ability to create custom displays on a per screen basis, or to a group of several screens with a common set of features. Being able to configure the content on a per screen basis allows very detailed targeting of content where required, for example, allowing the site to provide content targeted at specific client screens, for promoting their own brand, products and offers in real-time. This functionality provides the client with the ability to display a different look and feel to each screen within a zone whilst repurposing the same content in different screen layouts. The system is agnostic to screen type allowing the client to use existing screens as well as new ones. TripleSign also allows an assigned user to make alterations to the current playlist that are made immediately, allowing someone to post latest offers/information, or to make last minute changes, for example. This control is accessed from any PC through the web based management pages, with restricted login permissions available to individual users, to allow them to access a select number of screens for a select period of time.
