BrightSign states the LS5 delivers essential digital signage capabilities with flawless video quality, core motion graphics and basic interactivity via USB-C, all within an ultra-compact, energy-efficient design, making it an easy choice to replace simple PC-based solutions.

The player has an integrated Neural Processing Unit (NPU) and supports 4K IP streaming.

Interactivity and expansion are handled through a single USB-C port that supports both device and host mode and BrightSign's custom cable solutions (USB-C to GPIO, USB-C to USB-A plus 3.5mm serial, and USB-C to IR).

The compact chassis measures 126.6 x 141.84 x 19.41 mm and the player weighs 0.18 kg.

LS445 is the 4K model of the LS5 pair. BrightSign describes it as one that 'Advances video capabilities to 4K resolution.'
