VertigoXmedia and Lighthouse package top LED signage technology with Xpresenter graphics software

VertigoXmedia, a leading provider of graphics software and hardware, and Lighthouse Technologies, a leading manufacturer in full-colour LED screens, have joined forces to provide high-visibility digital signage systems for creating and distributing PowerPoint-based content in a variety of applications.
"With Xpresenter, VertigoXmedia offers users of our digital signs a simple, intuitive program that allows them to quickly convert and animate PowerPoint material into powerful, effective digital signage content," said Tony Turiello, Lighthouse's Vice President of sales, marketing, and operations in North America. "Because it's simple to use, this software empowers end users to be their own content management providers and minimise their costs in creating and distributing content for PopVision and other Lighthouse LED screens. They can achieve broadcast-quality results with no professional training."
David Wilkins, President and CEO of VertigoXmedia, said: "Lighthouse is at the top of the full-colour LED screen market, providing innovative solutions that have brightened many well-known urban landmarks. This partnership is an opportunity to build on each other's strengths in bringing a complete digital signage solution to a wider variety of applications.
"The declining prices of LED systems have made them more affordable to smaller applications such as gas stations, convenience stores, corporate lobbies, and faith-based facilities. Xpresenter is the perfect match for these customers because it works in PowerPoint, a low-cost program with a brief learning curve."
Xpresenter is an affordable, stand-alone system that provides an easy way to create digital signage applications directly inside PowerPoint. It runs inside the familiar PowerPoint interface, enabling users to develop high-end presentations that feature CG graphics, animations, and broadcast-quality video. By leveraging all the features of PowerPoint and other Microsoft Office applications, Xpresenter dramatically reduces the time and effort required to develop professional presentations and broadcast graphics.
