For Immediate Release
Pittsburgh, PA: Allin Corporation announced that, through its Interactive Group, it has secured an agreement with the Jacksonville Jaguars to install Allin Interactive's Robotic Program Manager (“RPM”) Platform in Alltel Stadium, home of the NFL Jacksonville Jaguars. Installation of the RPM Server along with RPM Designer and Controller software, developed by Allin Interactive, will be completed before the 2006-2007 home opener on September 10 versus the Dallas Cowboys.
Allin's RPM package, originally designed to populate, assemble, and control content for in-cabin TV program guides and public television displays on cruise ships, has been modified to create a flexible platform for in-stadium messaging, sponsorship and advertising. Allin’s multi-element, multi-channel display server and software is designed to combine scheduled and instant graphical content in conjunction with pre-recorded video and live broadcasts to concourse, public and luxury suite televisions. The easy-to-use RPM Designer software allows sponsor graphics, tickertape messages and animations to be interspersed with pre-game, in-game, and post-game video to maximize the promotional value of the platform. In addition, the “instant delivery” component of the software package allows teams and venues to deliver locally-controlled full-screen advertising video and messages at designated game junctures. Multiple channel capabilities allow differentiated content to be delivered to different groups of televisions at the same time all while utilizing the broadcast network infrastructure already in place in the stadium.
“We are extremely pleased to add the marketing and fan information capabilities of RPM to Alltel Stadium,” stated Bill Prescott, Senior Vice President-Stadium Operations/CFO of the Jacksonville Jaguars. “We liked RPM’s ability to consolidate the addition of graphical and video content to our in-stadium broadcast on multiple stadium television channels, and we were impressed with the ease-of-use of the operator interface. We believe that our fans and our sponsors will be pleased with the results.”
“We are very happy to continue our momentum in professional sports venues and particularly in the NFL,” stated Doug Tempero, managing director of Allin Interactive. “Our agreement with the Jaguars further strengthens our assertion that our RPM solution addresses an opportunity and a need in this environment at an attractive price point.”
Allin’s first implementation of RPM in a professional sports venue was in October, 2005 in the TD Banknorth Garden in Boston.
