1D230 Introduction
Feature detection is one of the key features for
the D230; the advertisement changes
immediately once the target audience is
detected. The target audience can be divided
by age and gender.
The D230 Device works with a mobile App,
which can create advertising content, including
scrolling text, pictures, and videos. Content can
be scheduled and uploaded to play on the
D230 device.
The D230 Mobile app runs on Android 7.x and
iOS 11.x or higher as provided by the
manufacturer.
