LG's Signage Manager app lets store staff run e-paper signs from a phone

LG's Signage Manager app lets store staff run e-paper signs from a phone

LG Electronics announced LG Signage Manager on Nov. 11, 2026. It is a smartphone app for editing, scheduling and monitoring LG's E-paper Display without a PC. Updates go over Wi-Fi when the phone and the display are on the same network, which makes it a tool for on-site staff. The schedules staff set also drive the display's power management, so how often content changes affects energy use.

  • 01On LG's e-paper display, the content schedule a store manager sets in the app is also the instruction the display uses to manage its power.
  • 02LG Signage Manager runs updates and status checks when the phone and display share a network, which makes it a fit for staff on the shop floor and a weaker fit for chains that push content from head office.
  • 03Before a pilot, check two things: whether the app is available in your region, and what the battery readout shows at the update frequency your menus and prices actually need.

Broadcast vendors say resilient workflows start with fewer tools

Broadcast vendors say resilient workflows start with fewer tools

Panelists argued that resilience can start with questioning unnecessary integrations and pushing controls into the background through templating and automation. They also urged teams to price redundancy and failover paths, including the ongoing cost and carbon of capacity that sits idle. Sony’s Martin Lindsay said open standards such as C2PA are essential to keep provenance information interoperable across tools, platforms and distribution.

  • 01Every tool added to a broadcast chain brings another credential, integration and thing to patch, so panelists urged teams to question whether existing platforms can cover a need before adding another layer.
  • 02Every duplicate region, standby instance and failover path adds cost and carbon that most organizations aren't measuring, Humans Not Robots CEO Kristan Bullett said.
  • 03Business continuity is about keeping the program on air while issues are addressed, while disaster recovery is about restoring systems and content; Wierzan argued they need separate plans, owners and testing rather than being treated as the same discipline.

JBL 3 Series MkIII monitors add VESA-pattern inserts for wall and ceiling installs

JBL 3 Series MkIII monitors add VESA-pattern inserts for wall and ceiling installs

JBL Professional's 3 Series MkIII monitors add eight VESA-pattern mounting points and a subwoofer that defers to external bass management. That combination makes a desktop monitor line practical for wall, ceiling and immersive rooms. North America ships January 7, 2027.

  • 01Eight M4 inserts in a 75 × 75 mm VESA pattern are intended to enable wall, ceiling, stand and monitor-arm mounting, making surround and overhead layouts a more practical extension of the 3 Series MkIII.
  • 02The 310S MkIII subwoofer's external crossover bypass decides who owns bass management, and that choice belongs in the room design before anything is ordered.
  • 03North American availability starts January 7, 2027, more than two months after Asia-Pacific and EMEA, so Q1 installs specified now carry a delivery date with them.
