Digital Signage Blog by Mirada Media

Earlier this year we provided the hardware, software and programming work for a digital menu board system at iQ Food Co., a start-up quick-serve restaurant located in Toronto, Ontario (get map). We took the creative by iQ’s design firm and made user-editable templates that the restaurant’s management can control with our MenuView CMS.

A case study is available on our main website and as a PDF download detailing how digital signage in the store gives life to their creative ideas and provides a unique experience to their patrons.

You can also stream one of their promotional videos below or check out the whole album on our Vimeo page.

Here are some pictures of a new Digital Menuboard installation at a new Yeh! Yogourt location in Montreal’s Centre Eaton. Yeh! Yogourt Glace and Café was founded in 2008 by Jean-Daniel Nadeau and Grace Yeh, who shared a passion for frozen yogurt and a dream to be the first to bring the exciting experience of self-serve frozen yogurt to Canada.

The four-screen menu array is powered by Mirada Media’s ChannelView System and is displayed by 42-inch commercial Sharp LCD’s. Content can be changed from Yeh!’s head office via our web portal application. We’ll have more information regarding the installation soon. In the meanwhile, here are a couple more images below.

Its kinda nice / funny to see one of our installs on cable TV. The French-language TV show ‘Nos Canadiens’, hosted by Anne-Marie Withenshaw on V, gives Habs fans the opportunity to see what its really like to play for the most storied franchise in NHL history. Every week the camera follows a player on their daily schedule to give us a glimpse of their personal and professional life. On a recent airing featuring Montreal Canadiens defenceman Hal Gill, they take us to Avril Supermarché Santé in Montreal’s South Shore, one of our clients, and where the pro-hockey player purchases his supplements.

We installed digital signage throughout the health food supermarket including their fresh produce area, their cosmetics store and at their quick serve bistro, Avril Cafe. At around 3:45 into the following excerpt of the episode, we see Hal Gill and Anne-Marie purchase coffees at the Avril Cafe, which features our MenuView digital menu boards: http://vtele.ca/videos/nos-canadiens/nos-canadiens-hal-gill_25769.php.

Go Habs, Go!
