Lincolnshire, Ill. — LG Electronics USA and BrightSign LLC have formed a collaboration resulting in a new series of LG ultra high-definition (UHD) digital signage displays running BrightSignOS. These displays will be available to U.S. customers in the second quarter of 2025, with international markets following.
The new LG 49-, 55-, and 65-inch UV5N series models will run the trusted BrightSignOS on LG’s powerful, embedded system-on-a-chip (SoC) multi-core processor. These displays are designed to transform content delivery and offer a wide variety of BrightSign partner content management system (CMS) solutions. They cater to a range of vertical markets, including transportation, retail, museums, hospitality, corporate, education and healthcare.
“In development for 2 years and exclusive to LG for the next 3 years, this industry-first collaboration with BrightSign is a game-changer for digital signage,” says Michael Kosla, senior vice president of LG Electronics USA’s Media Entertainment Solution B2B division. “It combines the benefits of BrightSignOS with LG’s award-winning displays. These new Ultra HD signage displays are the first to market to offer BrightSignOS integration on an embedded SoC. This offers flexible operating system options for users, along with simplified integration and greater standardization across the board via BrightSign’s OS running on LG’s system-on-a-chip, best-in-class digital signage displays.”
Adds Steve Durkee, chief executive officer at BrightSign: “Businesses are in the market for signage applications that are easy to deploy, cost-effective and updated over time. This keeps them on the edge of content innovation without having to constantly rip-and-replace systems.”
