ALLENTOWN, Pa., Sep 04, 2012 (BUSINESS WIRE) — –Customizable Airport TV Network Enables Travelers to Choose Multiple Channels Direct from Their Mobile Devices

Clear Channel Airports (CCA), a division of Clear Channel Outdoor Holdings, Inc. CCO +1.52% , and the world’s leading marketer of airport advertising, today announced the launch of an innovative new in-airport TV network called ClearVision, which features the best entertainment, news, music, and sports programming for travelers.

ClearVision is the first real alternative in decades to CNN’s news-only airport network. Created through a partnership between Clear Channel Airports and connectiVISION Digital Networks, one of the leading digital media companies, ClearVision provides airports, content partners, and advertisers with an unparalleled ability to reach and engage air travelers – through customized content ranging from local news to top network shows and live events. Airports ultimately will be able to leverage WiFi services to provide travelers accustomed to on-demand content access to the ClearVision network on their smartphones, iPads, and laptops.

A Game-Changer for Airport Advertising

“ClearVision brings airport entertainment into the modern age and represents a true game-changer for airport advertising in the U.S.,” said William Eccleshare, CEO, Clear Channel Outdoor Holdings. “It’s the latest example of how Clear Channel Outdoor continues to develop and deliver bold, pioneering solutions to the Out of Home market.

“ClearVision will forever change the air travel experience for passengers and enhance the way the airport and advertisers engage with customers,” said Clear Channel Airports President Toby Sturek. “For the first time, there is a content-driven, consumer-oriented offering available to airports that can deliver travelers a wide range of news and entertainment wherever they are in an airport–on traditional TV screens or their mobile devices.”

“Our goal,” said David Tetreault, Chief Marketing Officer at connectiVISION, “is to provide travelers–especially frequent business travelers–a diverse, 20-hour-a-day programming lineup of top network shows, news, weather, and sports while enabling airports to deliver a customized TV station with local flare and programming. This unique Away-From-Home television solution is the first of its kind to provide premium programming designed to target, reach, and engage a world on-the-go.”

Licensed ClearVision content can be transformed into short-form “mini-sodes” that will be woven together with local programming to create a localized sense of place for airport passengers and visitors. Content acquisition and licensing will be managed by connectiVISION, which enjoys deep relationships in the television, entertainment, sports and music industries. ClearVision will also feature innovative and adaptive airport promotions that will provide passengers with relevant concession promotions through pop-up advertisements.

“The partnering of these fine companies is the ideal collaboration to facilitate our larger purpose: to bring about a transformative television experience for viewers away from their homes,” said Henry Mauriss, CEO of connectiVISION.

Locbit and ConnectiVision Partner to Deliver Interactive Content in Doctor’s Offices

Posted on August 15, 2012 by in connectiVISION News Posts, ConnectiVISION TV Networks

ConnectiVision Digital Networks in partnership with Locbit delivers hyper-local content onto digital screens.

LOS ANGELES, CA (PRWEB) August 15, 2012

ConnectiVision, a leading away-from-home media network, has partnered with Locbit, a technology company that applies unmatched intelligence to deliver hyper-local content onto digital screens.

Through the partnership, ConnectiVision will utilize Locbit’s powerful algorithm to auto-select and display the most relevant content onto its robust network of 300+ Internet-connected digital screens in the waiting rooms of doctor’s offices and medical centers throughout the United States. ConnectiVision has operated this screen network, known as ConnectiMed, since 2009 offering custom content to educate, entertain and inform patients and others in waiting rooms and health care facilities.

By adding Locbit to its screen network, ConnectiVision improves its ability to ensure that advertising and other interactive content is timely, targeted and relevant. Regular content, such as television programming, will continue to stream on each screen along with newly-added Locbit content on a side bar with a standard 140-character ad and corresponding QR-code. Viewers utilize mobile devices like a cell phone to scan the QR-code and interact with the screen. The content experience will then be delivered on the mobile device. This could be a game, coupon, mobile app, web page etc.

“Our company is deeply committed to delivering products and services that are continually improving, which is why we are excited to utilize Locbit as a tool to improve our content 24/7 and in real-time based on a robust methodology” said ConnectiVision CMO, David Tetreault.

Locbit is powered by a complex algorithm that factors location, context, time, and other factors, to auto-place content on hundreds of digital screens. The company has built a network of over one million dynamic ads that the algorithm can select from. As viewers interact with the Locbit content, the company’s algorithm learns over time to become even more powerful.

“Our system presents information when people are most likely to act on it,” explains Boian Spassov, CEO of Locbit. “We reach people when they are out in the community making purchasing decisions. By presenting them with the most targeted, hyper-local content, they are most likely to act on it. That’s the power of the algorithm, which improves with every interaction”

Locbit has already been proven on hundreds of screens nationwide in gyms, restaurants, kiosks and even digital billboards like the one at the U.S./Mexico border-crossing in San Diego which is seen by over 130,000 people daily. The ConnectiVision screens powered by Locbit are based in the metro Los Angeles region to generate revenue for both companies. Additional screens will be live in other networks nationwide through this partnership.

ConnectiVision is utilizing the Locbit analytics dashboard that presents usage data and metrics in real-time. This allows for improved management of each ad campaign. The Locbit screen content can be changed or updated based on screen- and location-specific analytics provided minute-to-minute. In addition to the current ad model, companies are developing more interactive content, which will allow the ConnectiVision/Locbit partnership to support patient feedback and two-way interaction as each medical office sees fit.

As Tetreault concludes, “whether it is 10 or 10,000 people interacting with our screens daily, we work to deliver a valuable experience for each individual. Locbit allows to us to tailor and improve our content at an unprecedented level. We look forward to continue expanding this partnership and offering the latest in interactive and intelligent technology through our network.”

ConnectiVision CEO Henry Mauriss adds “The partnering of our organizations represents an exciting step forward for ConnectiVision Digital Networks. The interactive technology being provided by Locbit will not only enhance the current ConnectiVision viewers’ experience ten-fold, but the addition of this technology truly allows us to recognize our strategic goal of being one of the most unique and intuitive Away-From-Home Television offerings currently available.”

So much more than News, Weather and Sports… our content strategy is designed to Entertain, Educate and Inform a world on the go, satisfy an audience of any age, provide industry specific feature programming, and give Fortune 500 brand and local business advertisers optimal engagement and consumer interaction.
