Hi Jess, The latest BrightSign hardware isn’t too bad, although the version of Chromium they use to 'play' HTML5 content is about 10 versions behind what is in the Chrome browser or Electron. The older hardware has limited touch (no multi-touch), but can play video from HTML fine. Once we have a few interactives we'll be trying these on different BrightSigns to see how far they can be pushed. The other stream of work, planned for later on, is to get BrightSign hardware actively monitored by Nodel (http://nodel.io/). We are experimenting with Nodel to monitor our apps, and will look at extending this to hardware as we have time.
