Responsive Drive-Thru Signage

Samsung's Outdoor Digital Signage Changes Based on Variables

— April 2, 2018 — Lifestyle
Outdoor digital signage is a simple way for quick-service restaurants to increase the efficiency of drive-thru ordering, and Samsung's products give business owners an impressive degree of adaptability in marketing their menu items. The signs can shift and change to suit not only the broad needs of customers on a day-to-day basis, but they can even be tailored based on each individual's needs.

There are broad demographic patterns at drive-thru locations that Samsung's outdoor digital signage can easily address. At the most basic level, it can change the graphics on the menu to reflect deals that revolve around the time of day (like a breakfast menu that ends at 11 AM or a late-night special). However, Samsung is working on holistic technology solutions that might one day be able to recognize the consumers in a given vehicle and constantly change the menu to reflect those consumers' spending habits.
Trend Themes
1. Adaptive Drive-thru Signage - Samsung's outdoor digital signage adapts to customer needs, allowing for personalized marketing and tailored menu options.
2. Demographic-based Menu Customization - Samsung's technology can analyze demographic patterns and adjust menu graphics and specials accordingly, catering to specific customer segments.
3. Customer Recognition Technology - Samsung is developing solutions to recognize individual consumers in a vehicle and modify the menu based on their spending habits and preferences.
Industry Implications
1. Quick-service Restaurants - Quick-service restaurants can enhance drive-thru efficiency and customer satisfaction by implementing Samsung's adaptive outdoor signage for targeted marketing and customized menus.
2. Digital Signage - The digital signage industry can benefit from Samsung's innovation in outdoor signage by offering adaptive solutions that meet the evolving customer demands in different contexts.
3. Data Analytics - Data analytics companies can partner with Samsung to provide insights on customer behavior and help drive personalization in menu customization through demographic analysis and recognition technology.
