digital sign

Screen showing information

A digital sign is an electronic display used for advertising, information, or wayfinding—the screens you see in airports showing departures, in storefronts cycling through promotions, or along highways displaying traffic alerts.

Unlike traditional printed signs, digital signs can be updated remotely and in real time: The digital sign in the lobby announced the building evacuation.
