3 DIGITAL SMART TOPS: In line with Research findings The study from the AAAA is directly analogous to Digital Smart Tops. It is in the direct line of sight of pedestrians and vehicular traffic alike. In sharp contrast to conventional one-color LED technology, high performance Taxi Media Digital Smart Top screens provide significantly wider viewing angles and ultra-bright, full-color animations and video images. Brighter than a typical LED screen, high-resolution images are clearly visible even in direct sun light and provide higherquality image definition for dazzling ads day or night. Surpassing LED technology, LCD displays achieve branding capabilities never seen before in outdoor media. Digital Out-of-Home Media Awareness and Attitude Study 2007 So how effective is advertising on digital signs? Is digital out-of-home media a better way to engage people who are busy and difficult to reach? How does it fit in with other media? To find out, SeeSaw Networks commissioned OTX to undertake a research study. Participants answered questions about several types of media, including TV, magazine, radio, newspaper, billboard, Internet, mobile phone, and digital signage. For each of these types of media, researchers were able to measure the awareness, attention, impact levels, and consumer response to advertisements. People were also asked where they had observed digital signage, and how they felt about the advertising being shown in these venues. The study was augmented with 200 respondents from each of the following specific life pattern segments: Teens College students Mobile millennials Alpha moms Families on the go Hispanic families Business professionals Affluents AAAA Study by SeeSaw Networks, in conjunction with the research firm OTX (Online Testing exchange).

4 Here are some key findings: Digital Signage Advertising Has Stopping Power Sixty-three percent of adults said that it catches their attention. This is the highest level reported across all media surveyed, including TV, the Internet, billboards, magazines, newspapers, radio, and mobile phone advertising. Digital Signage Is More Positively Rated Than Other Media Respondents found it to be more unique, interesting, and entertaining than most media. Additionally, people reported that advertising on digital signage was less annoying than on nearly all other media. Awareness of Digital Signage Advertising Is High Sixty-two percent of adults said they have seen ads on digital signage over the past 12 months, and the figure was even higher for young adults between 18 and 24, at 75%. This awareness level was similar to that for advertisements on billboards, and in magazines and newspapers, and was better than awareness of advertising on mobile phones. Digital Signage Advertising Intercepts People Throughout Their Daily Routines On average, the general population recalled having seen digital signage in six different types of locations during the past week. College-age people (18- to 24- year-olds) reported seeing it even more frequently in eight different types of locations in a week. Digital Signage Advertising Engages People Nowadays, people are busier than ever and advertising is only effective if it engages people. It needs to have stopping power.

7 A new way to target like never before Digital Smart Tops patented Geo-Targeting system is linked to a Global Positioning System (GPS). Using satellites to identify a Digital Smart Top location, advertisers are able to change ads based on location. Each Top has a built-in GPS that talks to a satellite, enabling it to be aware of its location within a fraction of a city block. GPS technology has been a reliable navigation tool for years. Now advertisers can use it to target their ads with new precision. Location Targeting The Digital Smart Top s unique design allows it to deliver ads that are precision targeted to specific locations. Run advertisements wherever customers are - at the airport, outside major hotels, in the theater district, in front of a competitor s store, or within a few block of your own storefront. A retail store, for instance, might advertise a sale at their store. Or a movie theater could tout current films. Time Targeting Deliver messages when a specific audience will be most receptive. Promote coffee during the morning commute, a company s job opportunities at lunchtime, movie rental in the evening or available show tickets at night. A restaurant can buy advertising in its immediate vicinity and charge the display to advertise lunch and dinner specials throughout the day. Demographic Targeting The Digital Smart Top lets advertisers reach key consumer groups based on demographics. Run ads for financial services in affluent regions, tailor ads for different language areas, or messages direct at college students in and around campuses. Co-Branding Digital Smart Tops can accommodate multiple advertisers at the same time. For example, a juice company and multiple supermarkets can co-brand a product - sharing an ad that targets the same potential customers.
