NEW YORK, Jan. 15 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- (NRF, Booth #2172) -- Harris
Corporation (NYSE: HRS), an international communications and information
technology company, will feature its Harris Digital Signage(TM) solutions for
retailers at the 97th Annual National Retail Federation (NRF) Convention and
Expo being held January 13-16, 2008, at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center
in New York.
At this year's NRF convention, Harris will be featured as the exclusive
provider of digital signage solutions at the X08 "Beyond the Walls of Retail."
This exhibit, housed within the X08 Store of the Future Pavilion, highlights
the integration of digital signage as one of many exciting, cutting-edge
electronic technologies transforming today's retail environments. A control
room setup at the XO8 Pavilion will allow visitors to experience a Harris
Digital Signage(TM) "management how-to" demonstration for retailers - from
developing and scheduling content on the network to final distribution and
traffic and billing report generation.
"The NRF X08 Store of the Future exhibit will feature a Harris Digital
Signage solution feeding a network of more than 30 displays, including HDTV
flat panels and an LCD video wall," said John Melillo, president of
Diversified Media Group, a managed network company in Kenilworth, N.J., that
is handling the systems integration for the Harris Digital Signage(TM) X08
exhibit. "The Harris control room at X08 will play a key part in educating
retailers about the components of the digital signage network infrastructure,
as well as demonstrating the advantages of having an advanced network and
report management system."
"Harris provides a unique set of solutions for retailers seeking to deploy
a digital signage program," said Steven Keith Platt, director and research
fellow at the Platt Retail Institute, a leading authority in the field of
digital signage, based in Hinsdale, Ill.
Harris Digital Signage solutions enables retailers to work with a single
vendor that can provide all the capabilities needed for creating, scheduling,
distributing, playing and reporting of both live video and graphical content.
Retailers can acquire or create digital content and manage it throughout the
entire delivery chain -- from a central site, from remote locations, or from
within any store. Complex ad-based campaigns can also be easily scheduled and
managed, with reports automatically generated, as content from multiple
sources is delivered to multiple displays.
Harris Digital Signage solutions, which include InfoCaster(TM) creation
station content development tools and InfoCaster(TM) player content playback
devices provide best-of-breed technology and services to broadcasters in over
150 countries. Harris Digital Signage solutions support the same high-caliber

automation, scheduling, and traffic and billing systems used daily to manage
many of the world's advertiser-supported broadcast operations.
