Alpha Video and Digital Display Group Selected to Integrate Audiovisual and CastNET Digital Signage Solutions into Choctaw Casinos
One of the largest Southern casino chains receives audiovisual upgrades and enterprise-wide digital signage solution

Minneapolis, MN, May 21, 2009 - Alpha Video & Audio, Inc. and its digital signage division, Digital Display Group (DDG), announced that it has been selected to design and integrate its digital signage solution, as well as upgrade audiovisual components, into all eight Choctaw Casinos in Oklahoma. The casino chain, one of the largest in the Southern United States, entered into the $3.6 million enterprise-wide deal that utilizes DDG's CastNET digital signage software to drive the casino's marketing messaging and gaming initiatives.

Alpha Video's Digital Display Group, developer of the CastNet signage solution, will provide a flexible, secure, and efficient advertising system to promote the casino's marketing, restaurants, hotels, spas and nightlife with vibrant and real time messaging. The signage system will be utilized by Choctaw to drive messages related to the casino's menu boards, event center performances, travel plaza information, conference schedules, point of sale solutions, and gaming-related marketing. CastNET will also allow the casinos to control the floor with jackpot celebrations when a winner hits a jackpot, triggering lights, sound and interruption of displays with celebrations that excite the entire casino and promote individuals to continue playing. In addition, numerous interactive kiosks will be installed for wayfinding purposes, which allow casino customers to find their favorite game locations and amenities.

"Digital Display Group's CastNET digital signage solution is providing us with the technology we need to take our casino marketing programs to the next level," says Taron Graves, Media Manager for Choctaw Casinos.

Alpha Video, a leading professional video systems integrator, is also working with the Choctaw casino chain to update the entire audiovisual system. Upgrades include lighting installation, audio, video, and complete control systems throughout the facility.

Paul Medlin, Associate Director of Business Development for Digital Display Group, says, "Choctaw Casinos is one of the first projects industry-wide that will be integrated with both a best-in-class digital signage solution and audiovisual upgrades from one company." Along with Alpha Video's state-of-the-art AV components, DDG will provide mission critical functionality to over 230 screens along with a full range of services, including: consulting, creative development and strategy, project management, training, technical support, and full-scale integration. "This unique deployment is sure to truly create an enterprise-wide environment, something that more and more customers are now requesting in order to improve time and resource efficiencies, utilizing one platform."
