Wireless Ronin Honored With Two Awards at the 2010 Digital Signage Expo
GlobeNewswire
2010-03-05


MINNEAPOLIS, March 5, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Wireless Ronin
Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq:RNIN), a Minneapolis-based digital signage
provider and Presenting Sponsor of the Digital Signage Expo earned both
an Apex and Content award with client ARAMARK at the Las Vegas event
February 24th.

"We are very pleased to be honored at the Digital Signage Expo again
this year for our client programs," said Scott Koller, executive vice
president and chief operating officer of Wireless Ronin Technologies.
"It is rewarding for our team at Wireless Ronin to see that our
continued innovation and hard work is recognized by the industry at
this key event."

Wireless Ronin and ARAMARK received a Silver Apex award in the
Hospitality category for the overall network powered by the
RoninCast(R) digital signage software. The RoninCast software allows
ARAMARK to leverage their wide array of assets and data efficiently and
cost effectively while providing highly customizable solutions for
their unique settings, floor plans and dining offerings. With food and
facility locations in Healthcare, Higher Education, Sports,
Entertainment and Convention Centers among many others, ARAMARK was
ultimately able to create a network model that provides unique and
compelling implementations across a varied client landscape in the form
of digital menu boards, greeter boards and promotional panels at
exceptionally competitive cost points that deliver compelling consumer
experiences.

"This digital signage network is a game changer," said George Yunis,
senior director, Creative Services for ARAMARK. "In addition to
supporting a variety of menu strategies, it forms the backbone for
multiple uses and applications offering our clients, consumers and
employees tremendous new ways to benefit from all that ARAMARK has to
offer."

The new ARAMARK campus dining brand, Burger Studio(TM), was recognized
for "Best Product Content" for its use of innovative and compelling
interactive content created for its ordering kiosks which allows
customers to "Build Your Own Burger". The use of interactive ordering
content appeals directly to its key demographics' desire -- providing
them the ability to create their own custom burger with over 30 fresh
topping ingredients. Burger Studio creates a truly immersive digital
experience by including digital menu board systems that mirror and
support the touch screen content through which patrons build their
custom burger masterpiece.

"This was truly a team effort," said Dan Muenzberg, director, ARAMARK
Concept Design. "ARAMARK's Strategy & Insights and Concept Design teams
collaborated to provide creative and content direction to the talented
WRT designers."

"We were so pleased with the student input we received to help create
the design concept, as well as with the partnership WRT provided to
achieve the desired kiosk functionality," adds Bob Joyal, IT manager
for ARAMARK Dining and Facility Services.

Recipients of the 2010 awards were selected from a field of nearly 120
entrants and judged by a third party group of industry professionals
based on creative or technological solution to a digital signage
installation challenge and the accompanying result. The Digital Signage
Expo is the largest international tradeshow solely dedicated to the
digital signage industry and related technology.
