Then, the signage device extracts the optimum content based on the measurement result of the effect measurement device (step S303), and when the data management device matches the received distribution condition and the external state information, The distribution permission information is notified to the signage device 100 (step S304), and the signage device 100 transmits the content to the content reproduction terminal 500 according to the stored schedule (step S305).

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, distribution is performed by learning control using the effect measurement device 700 together with distribution conditions input from the user and information acquired from the existing data storage unit 300 and the external sensor 400. Since the content is determined and played back by the content playback terminal 500, appropriate content can be displayed in real time.

  The signage reproduction system of the present invention is recorded by recording the processing of the signage reproduction system on a computer-readable recording medium, causing the signage device 100, the data management device 200, and the like to read and execute the program recorded on the recording medium. Can be realized. The computer system here includes an OS and hardware such as peripheral devices.

  Further, the “computer system” includes a homepage providing environment (or display environment) if a WWW (World Wide Web) system is used. The program may be transmitted from a computer system storing the program in a storage device or the like to another computer system via a transmission medium or by a transmission wave in the transmission medium. Here, the “transmission medium” for transmitting the program refers to a medium having a function of transmitting information, such as a network (communication network) such as the Internet or a communication line (communication line) such as a telephone line.

  The program may be for realizing a part of the functions described above. Furthermore, what can implement | achieve the function mentioned above in combination with the program already recorded on the computer system, what is called a difference file (difference program) may be sufficient.

  The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail with reference to the drawings. However, the specific configuration is not limited to the embodiments, and includes designs and the like that do not depart from the gist of the present invention.
