Millennium
An iconic smart building at the heart of Europe.
Millennium is a premier destination, a unique meeting place for companies in Switzerland, and a model for the smartest buildings of tomorrow.
Supercharged Experiences
The SpinetiX digital signage solution lies at the heart of Millennium, supercharging experiences beyond the ordinary. 150 strategically placed throughout the building displays of all shapes and sizes serve multiple vertical needs: Hospitality, Corporate, and Entertainment, making every welcome warmer and every interaction seamless and memorable.
EXPERIENTIAL SIGNAGE
To meet the challenge, the Millennium team called upon the qualities of the SpinetiX Complete Digital Signage solution. This includes SpinetiX ARYA™ CMS as the key hub for the entire signage installation for easy content management, supported by the versatile iBX440 and HMP400 media players, as well as Elementi software for advanced third-party content integrations.
The resulting signage experiences are divided into four categories.
Welcome Experiences
Welcome areas at Millennium set the stage for a memorable first impression. Digital signage around the building’s entry points signals a grand sense of arrival and enhances the transition between the outside world and the interior. Once inside, the SpinetiX solution invites visitors and resident staff to 'expect the unexpected', guaranteeing a positively surprising yet consistent experience.
'WOW' Moments Right at the Door
The lobby’s striking 48x9 LED wall features three synchronized 4K display resolutions across a massive, uninterrupted digital canvas. It is powered by a single award-winning iBX440 SpinetiX video wall player that works together with SpinetiX ARYA for easy content setup and management, accessible to everyone. This guarantees visitors are welcomed with impactful visual experiences right from the start.
Interactive Signage Controls
Using interactive controls for special events like birthdays or emergency situations becomes effortless with SpinetiX ARYA’s Q‑SYS plugin. It enables activating a display program that synchronizes content and lighting between the lobby's LED wall and the outdoor fountain’s LED screen at the touch of a button. This seamlessly blends screen content, lighting, and audio, delivering unmatched programmed sensory experiences.
Data-Driven Wayfinding
Enabling smooth in-transit experiences, the SpinetiX signage solution offers automated, branded wayfinding that highlights current events, their locations, and directions. Using Elementi's data-driven Widgets, this feature enhances visitor navigation. Designed with Elementi software, managing these wayfinding integrations is straightforward right from within SpinetiX ARYA CMS, ensuring that the displayed content is always relevant to real-time events happening on-site.
Consistent Experiences on Arrival and Departure
At the main entrance and parking areas, digital totem displays welcome visitors and provide essential traffic and weather information, enhancing arrival and departure experiences according to the time of day. SpinetiX HMP400 media players, built for critical applications, ensure the totems operate flawlessly in any condition.
Conference Center
In Millennium’s cutting-edge conference center, the seamless integration of digital signage significantly enhances the visitor experience, particularly by facilitating smooth welcome and departure interactions and ensuring efficient wayfinding across the building.
In-Room Welcome and Departure Experiences
SpinetiX enhances conference room encounters with multi-layered, customizable content from Elementi shown directly on conference displays, offering event-specific greetings and smooth transitions between presentations. This integration eliminates generic screens and ensures a professional vibe with smooth welcomes and goodbyes, all while keeping the atmosphere aligned with the specific event’s theme.
Event-Branded Wayfinding
Real-time branded event wayfinding integrated with the end-customer event management database ensures intuitive navigation throughout Millennium. Digital signage across the building guides guests to their events, using overlays of self-contained real-time elements called Widgets to display the event time and location on top of other on-screen content.
Special Events & Entertainment
Whether it's a corporate evening, a gala dinner, a cocktail party, or a full-blown rock concert, the SpinetiX signage solution offers dynamic on-screen content at the right time, making every event special from start to finish.
Integrating Signage and Stage Events
Positioned above the stage of Millennium’s auditorium, a massive LED wall is similar in setup to the one in the lobby. It is similarly connected to a single iBX440 video wall player. Using SpinetiX ARYA, it displays engaging content like welcome messages or custom visuals at the press of a button; all managed via a tablet and at precise moments before and after events. This setup prevents blank screens during welcome and departure and aligns perfectly with events ‘themes, enhancing attendee experiences right from the start.
Cutting-edge Integrations Behind the Scenes
Behind the scenes in the auditorium Artist's Lounge, state-of-the-art interactive digital signage allows artists to switch between display content and live stage feeds seamlessly with just a switch of a button. SpinetiX ARYA’s certified Q-SYS plugin makes this possible and keeps performers behind the stage well-informed and ready for their cue.
Immersive Ballroom Experiences
Synchronized projectors powered by SpinetiX digital signage players and featuring negative bezels create an immersive setting with seamless visuals across Millennium’s ballroom. This is another example of the innovative ways digital signage can be used in special events to set new standards in guest experiences.
Hospitality & Services
The SpinetiX digital signage solution is central to transforming every aspect of Millennium's five-star hospitality experiences and full range of services.
Data-Driven Digital Menu Boards
Strategically placed digital menu boards that feature dynamic pricing and AI-generated imagery bring culinary experiences to life even before guests and resident staff walk into any of Millennium’s three food-and-beverage outlets. Simple database integrations with the POS system automatically update daily menu items and prices on display, while pictures of the dishes spark visitors’ appetites, driving the excitement for the actual meal’s delight.
High-Impact Monetizing Opportunities
The end customer leverages digital signage as a marketing tool, dedicating a portion of the screen space throughout the building to promote the full range of services like the delicatessen, dry cleaning, car wash, private club, and gym. By using impactful visuals, QR codes, and gamification – like interactive World Cup challenges at Le Café, they increase visits and attract more customers to these on-site facilities. Live streaming – for example, from the club’s regular events is also added to the mix for effective engagement and promotion.
Uniformly Branded Screen Content
The visual brand identity of the end customer is reinforced at every screen location – whether near service areas, dining outlets, or in hallways and elevators. Consistency is achieved through SpinetiX ARYA’s set of digital signage templates, which allow for effortless one-click logo, style, and color code, customizations across all content, all at once.
