Roving Reporter: vPro technologies manage remote retail devices

in Market Applications
Posted bywwebbSep 1, 2011
Remote embedded devices such as point-of-sale (POS) terminals and intelligent kiosks are becoming commonplace in nearly every marketplace and offer retailers reduced operating costs, real-time data collection, and simplified maintenance.  The embedded performance requirements of these systems are substantial as most devices must simultaneously interact with a user and drive one or more local displays while communicating with a remote server.

Roving Reporter: Going big with interactive exhibits

in Market Applications
Posted byMarkScantleburyApr 14, 2010
Many of us are familiar with those interactive displays at museums where you press a button and different bulbs light up to show you something like the path an explorer took to discover a new country or an arboreal animal's habitat in the forest canopy. Frankly, I'm never that impressed with those exhibits. I need a lot more "wow" to get me interacting with a display. Which is precisely why I got excited the other day while talking to the folks over at Micro Industries , an Affiliate Member of...Read More

Roving Reporter: Emerson Network Power rings up retail possibilities with new motherboard

in Market Applications
Posted byMarkScantleburyMay 19, 2009
Since the advent of online shopping, brick-and-mortar stores have seen a lot less of me and my wallet. The brick-and-mortar stores that I do patronize are those with good online shopping systems. One chain I frequent a lot offers free shipping to online shoppers when you pick up orders at their stores. This is a smart tactic. It gets people like me who make online purchases inside store walls. Once there, I usually buy something else.   When I examine the reasons I shop online, self servic...Read More
