Audio Video Term

Dayparting

Dayparting is an audio video term for Chicago-area smart home, theater, and commercial AV projects.

Dayparting is scheduling different signage content by time of day, such as breakfast, lunch, happy hour, dinner, or event mode.

Example of Dayparting

A restaurant can update breakfast, lunch, dinner, and promotional screens from a content management system instead of reprinting menus. In that kind of Davis digital signage project, the term Dayparting would describe scheduling different signage content by time of day, such as breakfast, lunch, happy hour, dinner, or event mode. Davis would use that understanding to account for screen layout, media players, content schedules, network access, and the update workflow for staff, then test the result in the actual room, document the related components, and show the client how to use the feature without needing to manage the technical details behind it.
