Faith centre broadcasts prayer requests on screens
A religious centre in South Carolina is using digital signage across its 93-acre campus to communicate with staff and visitors.
“Implementing this emerging technology on such a broad scale in a matter of a few months was very challenging,” said Cecil Elmore, CIO of Inspiration Ministries, which operates the City of Light facility.
Screens are used to provide information on meeting rooms, with links to a Microsoft Outlook room-booking system. Further displays in the prayer room and call centre provide notifications of prayer times and requests for specific prayers.
A display in the welcome centre credits donors to the $150m City of Light project, while touchscreens in the same building give visitors access to rich-media content including video from Inspiration Ministries’ own TV network. Other screens promote products and offers in the bookstore and restaurant.
The City of Light’s network is based on X2O Media’s Xpresenter digital-signage system.
