The BX-950 Box Computer Supports "J-AD Vision" Digital Signage at Shinagawa Station

Digital signage is growing as a new advertising media and means of information distribution just as TV, newspaper, and magazines.

Since then, it has continued installing similar setups throughout the city, and by the end of 2009, the "J-AD Vision" digital signage had expanded to a total of 170 screens at 18 different locations in 12 metropolitan stations.
