BrightSign® Launches New Enhanced Device Management Solution Ahead of InfoComm 2026

BrightSign, the provider of the most advanced, capable, and trusted digital media players and operating system, today announced BrightSign Control Plus, a premium tier of its device management solution for digital signage players, BrightSign Control (previously bsn.Control). It comes in response to integrators and end-users needing greater management and visibility capabilities across distributed signage networks to maintain consistent experiences that are critical to business and operational performance.

Control Plus is cloud-based, allowing users to scale, configure, monitor, update, and schedule actions for fleets of players, no matter where they are, with a single, easy-to-use dashboard. BrightSign Control Plus was purpose-built for IT managers, multisite operators, system integrators, and anyone who prioritizes real-time visibility and ease of device management at scale across enterprise deployments. BrightSign Control, which is used across hundreds of thousands of players worldwide, remains included for free with the purchase of digital media players.

Key benefits include:

• Accelerate time-to-market by quicky provisioning and deploying fleets of players
• Maintain version consistency by updating fleets of players simultaneously with firmware, batch jobs, or job scheduling capabilities
• Facilitate geographical operations by grouping devices by location, region, or function
• Monitor and troubleshoot entire fleets with health dashboards, logs, and automated alerts
• Reduce time and costs by remotely rebooting and reconfiguring devices in bulk
• Gain AI-powered help with diagnostics, system navigation, and more
• Works alongside existing CMS deployments

With the launch of BrightSign Control Plus, BrightSign's existing software offerings have been rebranded to represent a more cohesive and unified portfolio:

• bsn.Control is now BrightSign Control
• brightAuthor connected is now BrightSign Author
• bsn.Content is now BrightSign Author Plus

"We're giving customers unparalleled choice of intelligent digital signage, built-in form factors, and new subscription services, regardless of how they operate. This is all while maximizing the benefits of enterprise-grade performance, reliability, security, and scalability that make BrightSign the standard in digital signage," said Steve Durkee, CEO of BrightSign. "Whether customers want out of the box digital signage or tailored-vertical specific options through our expanded CMS and BrightSign Built-In (BSBI) ecosystem, BrightSign is making it easier and more advantageous for buyers to deploy best-in-class technology for unmatched value."

BrightSign will showcase these new software capabilities at InfoComm 2026, booth C5301, in Las Vegas, NV from June 17-19. Additional features at the booth include:

• Growing global BrightSign Built-In (BSBI) partner ecosystem for unrivaled display choice: BrightSign continues to enable the delivery of new commercial grade displays from leading global manufacturers, combining hardware excellence with BrightSign's best-in-class operating system, BrightSignOS™, and ultimate CMS choice. For the first time at InfoComm, BrightSign will showcase the Sharp SDM Player with BrightSign Built-In, alongside other new BrightSign Built-In solutions catered toward a global market. This underscores the countless opportunities where display manufacturers are leveraging BrightSign, its operating system, and its growing partner and CMS network.
• Real-world signage environments for reliable, responsive deployments: BrightSign will bring real-world signage environments to life at the booth, showcasing the technology behind smarter, more reliable, and responsive digital signage.

• AI-ready and market-leading signage applications: BrightSign brings intelligence to digital signage with a built-in Neural Processing Unit (NPU) that can run powerful AI applications directly on the player. Visitors will see various AI applications in signage. For example, how AI can detect content anomalies, such as incorrect aspect ratios and blank screens, using AI to accelerate diagnoses and fixes. The company will also showcase its reliable, secure, and scalable digital signage solutions trusted by customers across industries, including the BrightSign XD6, BrightSign HD6 and BrightSign XS6.

BrightSign will also be a select technology partner powering InfoComm's Retail Experience at booth C9425. The dynamic and interactive showcase will bring together AV, data, and digital signage that drives modern commerce. Attendees can see real-world use cases brought to life by BrightSign, including high-impact merchandising, boutique fashion, and a checkout reimagining point of sale (POS).
