I’ve started gathering anonymous statistics about our users, their locations and their potential proximity to a display.

The next version of MyHalo will include the following customisations to a particular screen:

Repeat Adverts
Show Highly Rated
Show Recent Adverts – by day, week or since the user was last at the screen

Documented here: http://myhalo.org/wiki/doku.php?id=soa

Screen Status

The ODISS client is equipped with a traffic light status board that automatically refreshes. This provides a high level overview of which screens are running smoothly. Access this via the “Monitoring” module.

MyHalo trials

Customising advertising on Digital Signage is definitely interesting, and these are some of the things I’d like to be able to do:

1. View advertising I’d never seen before

2. View adverts others have rated highly

3. View today’s new adverts

What would you like to see?

Sentiment Analysis

From Wikipedia “Sentiment analysis or opinion mining refers to the application of natural language processing, computational linguistics, and text analytics to identify and extract subjective information in source materials.”

Sentiment analysis is used in the MyHalo.org framework to connect a Twitter user’s timeline to an ODISS deployment – that is, meta data describing the content on the display. If you tweet “I Love Beer” and a beer advert exists on the display, this personalises the display.
