The retail experience will consistently outperform the online experience. Even with the addition of augmented and virtual reality, consumers may buy online… but still love to experience a product. It’s why retail establishments have transformed themselves over the last decade from rows of sky-high, high-inventory stores to being showcases for consumers to interact with the merchandise being sold. While digital signage has taken off, we’re also seeing growth in digital projection.
Epson has announced LightScene™, a new category of accent lighting laser projectors for digital art and signage. LightScene is designed to illuminate and project dynamic content on virtually any surface or material to engage audiences and provide an immersive experience for commercial signage applications in markets such as retail, hospitality, showrooms, and museums.
Consumers crave memorable and engaging experiences. Display technology is changing the way consumers interact with brands and products, from the ease at which they are able to receive information to the way they digest an abundance of content. The new LightScene laser projector category will provide solutions to businesses creating captivating, immersive environments to engage customers with their product or brand, without impacting the overall atmosphere.
