In this article, we discuss a vision for digital signage in the future and standardization activities toward this vision, which incorporates insights and know-how gained through the experience of last year's Great East Japan Earthquake.Digital signage utilizing broadband networks has already begun to spread in industrialized regions, mainly in Europe, America, and Japan, and more installations are expected in a variety of locations.For digital signage to develop further as a next-generation infrastructure for distributing information, there is a need to ensure compatibility among products from different manufacturers and interconnectivity for communications, so international standardization is becoming more important.
