Technology makes its way towards the hospitality industry once more with the launch of the LodgeNet IPTV+. This new technology combines the Apple Mac mini with the LodgeNet High-Definition (HD) Internet Protocol TV (IPTV) platform, allowing hotels to deliver a new interactive medium like hotel information, services, entertainment and of course brand building messages.

“The power of the Mac mini in the guest room, coupled with LodgeNet’s proven and reliable content delivery capabilities, creates a new solution that offers a distinctive look and feel, and provides new functionality and performance that we believe is superior to any other interactive TV platform available today.”

With this new technology, expect a robust number of enhancements and add-ons to follow as well. Making use of advanced technology to provide the premium means of interactivity for guests from the management is something we are seeing today and this new one pushes the hospitality industry more towards that niche.

The new technology will be exhibited at the HITEC 2009 in Anaheim from June 23-25.
