Signs Point Towards Growth

The global digital signage market size was estimated at nearly USD 25 billion in 2022 and is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate of 8 percent from 2023 to 2030.i Growth in the industry is being driven by innovation in consumer experiences in retail and hospitality, as well as smarter infrastructure in healthcare, education, and the enterprise.

As designers, marketers, and infrastructure builders look for smarter ways to engage and inform people, they are turning to solutions that are cost effective, secure, and easier to deploy at scale. Customers are also demanding advanced products that require digitized information management and guidance that can be accessed remotely. The Lenovo Chromebox Micro is purpose-built to meet these needs.

Small Form Factor, Big Advantages

The Lenovo Chromebox Micro is an ultra-thin, light-weight media player that fits into nearly any kiosk or signage solution. The first micro form factor Chromebox by Lenovo, the device is built for 24/7 digital display deployments in the challenging conditions of high-traffic facilities. The fanless, ventless, dust-proof ChromeOS compute solution supports dual displays at 4K resolutions. And it is built compact enough to fit into tight environments, in fact it is smaller than most smart phones.

The Lenovo Chromebox Micro is a great fit for almost any signage and display solution. It includes USB-C®, USB-A, and HDMI ports, as well as screw holes for easy mounting.

Lenovo is collaborating with Instorescreen to offer 15.6” and 21.5” inFLEX displays specially designed for the Lenovo Chromebox Micro. The innovative high-resolution inFLEX displays feature a rear cavity to accommodate the Lenovo Chromebox Micro, ensuring unhindered access to all ports, while offering a streamlined and integrated appearance. For superior cable management, the Lenovo Chromebox Micro pairs with the inFLEX displays through a single cable from a USB-C port to provide video, power, and data.

Designed to be deployed at scale, the Lenovo Chromebox Micro is easy to manage remotely. The ChromeOS Kiosk and Digital Signage Upgrade enables customers to set up and manage a fleet of kiosk devices. Customers can also leverage ChromeOS zero-touch enrollment to accelerate the deployment of pre-provisioned devices.

The small, durable form factor powered by the simplicity and security of ChromeOS gives the Lenovo Chromebox Micro big advantages in terms of lower total cost of ownership.

“The Lenovo Chromebox Micro is a marvel of technological design and innovation, it is the powerhouse behind an extensive array of digital solutions tailored for a diverse range of industries and environments,” said Marc Godin, Vice President and General Manager of Commercial Smart Devices Solutions Group, Lenovo. “The device can help transform any business by offering unparalleled visual experiences in a small but powerful solution that’s easy to deploy.”
