Beverage giant Coca-Cola is making the most of these Chrome devices to power an extensive digital signage system. The company opted for Chrome because it was more affordable than the existing system. Coca-Cola is keen on laying the groundwork to achieve better customer engagement. The entity is deploying these Chromebits in countless stores.
Toyota is also taking advantage of Chrome devices to power thousands of showrooms in Europe. The automaker is using digital signage with the aim to extend its customers’ digital exploration of showrooms. This allows the organization to merge the experience of browsing online and viewing vehicles in person.
Chrome has been billed as “the most secure commercial operating system in the world.” And with the LobbyPOP set-up, it supports Kiosk Mode. This means the device can be locked down from a software perspective and run in “Kiosk Mode.” This is more than just an auto-boot feature to the digital signage function and treads somewhat into the security category. By “Kiosk Mode,” can the device be configured from an administrative perspective to boot into the digital signage application – and only the digital signage application – protecting it from (miss)use for other applications!
