Announced and demonstrated on the Philips booth (F01) at InfoComm Asia 2023, this important collaboration with Userful – a multi-national software provider – further extends PPDS’ commitment to delivering ‘total solutions’ to its customers, in Asia Pacific and around the globe.

The Infinity Platform provides enterprise AV/IT teams with a comprehensive, fully integrated, and highly secure digital signage solution, delivering flexible management and advanced situational awareness of all AV applications on a single screen.

Designed exclusively for mission critical environments, and with more than 1,000-plus companies from over 100 countries using the platform – including Deloitte, NASA, Ford and Hilton – the partnership runs deep into the technology, with Userful’s ‘uClient’ application sitting directly in PPDS’ range of Philips professional displays with Android SoC.

This eliminates the need for additional hardware or cabling, while ensuring seamless integration and end-to-end interoperability of displays (and other solutions) running on the Infinity digital ecosystem.
