Nodel is a digital media control system for museums and galleries.
Nodel is typically used for the control, monitoring and scheduling of digital media devices. With a design focused on galleries, museums, corporate meeting rooms and digital signage.
An active instance of Nodel can manage any number of integrate media devices, or assistant tools (schedulers, monitors, clusters) to form a coherent and manageable group of nodes.
These nodes are discoverable from other active instances of Nodel on the network, by which a series of user specified bindings allows the seamless propagation of remote actions and events between a group of nodes.
The nodes are written utilising a Python (Jython) API, examples of which are available on the recipes repository.
There's also a fully featured web interface for configuration of nodes, including an in-line editor to encourage most activities to take place within the platform.
