Specifications include, but are not limited to: With this foundation, the University sees the opportunity to create a connected digital signage network as a key step in building a “smart campus” environment that can serve as an extension of UK’s commitment to promoting diversity, inclusion, economic development and human well-being by creating a hub of communication that infuses collaboration. A “first” focus to creating this future is building connectivity that will lead to: 1. Improved communication and messaging - both within the campus business, across the campus landscape, and at the campus borders; 2. Improved UK campus appearance - by reducing the footprint of waste and disorganized messaging; 3. The cultivation of opportunities for University partners to disseminate messages and strengthen the delivery of valuable services to students, faculty, and staff.
