AUDIO DISCOVERY PLAYER™ ADP-MP3™

Description

The ADP-MP3 Audio Discovery Player™ from RMA Technologies™ allows you to add CD Stereo sound effects, music, or narration to your interactive display or exhibit. MP-3 Audio Files are easily loaded into the removable Compact Flash Memory Card using a personal computer, a standard card reader, and simple drag and drop commands from Microsoft Windows. A Script text file allows user programming of many control effects including random, sequential, or rotating messages, message chaining and lockout delays. Playback can be started with push buttons, IR sensors, or even stand-alone timed activation. An I/O Port allows connection of switches, LEDs and control of custom peripheral components while a Serial Port provides networking and control from a host system.

Combine the Audio Discovery Player with our other LED or Low Voltage Halogen Controllers for a complete interactive, multi-technology display.
