Amiga-based software presented at Nordental 2009

[fuskoSCN]

Nordental is the largest convention about dentistry in Norway, with about 4000 professional visitors from both private and public healthcare. Ferrule Media was present demonstrating their series of products – Dental Kanal and Dental Info.


Dental Kanal is an informationchannel about dentistry hosted by a Sam 440EP 667mhz running os4.1. The software is developed using the amazing Hollywood/Designer-software. With the help of Andreas Falkenhahn of Airsoft Softwair we have been able to produce a commercial infochannel running smoothly even on a low-specced SAM. This is possible by using hardware accelerated crossfade-effects.

Dental Info v.3.5 is a program that helps the dentist in the process of informing patients about treatment. Dental Info has been developed using Hollywood / Designer (OS4.1) and compiled to support Windows-hosted machines.

Both products gathered a lot of interest from the visitors – we have added a few photos from the fair showing the Ferrule Media-crew and the computer-setup.

Ferrule Media would like to use this opportunity to thank for the support from both Hyperion Entertainment CVBA and Acube Systems SRL!

Most importantly we would like to thank Andreas Falkenhahn of Airsoft Softwair. Without his talent and amazing support it would not have been possible to develop Dental Kanal and Dental Info. His software is by far the most impressive tools I have ever used on Amigas.

Best regards

hi there

Our customers does not care about what machine is hosting the infochannel - they just want a solution that is stable and easy to use

The Sam is very easy to set up as an infochannel - simply copy the executable to the wbstartup-drawer and the presentation starts once the OS is loaded.

The system is also very easy to install for the user.. No internet-connection is needed. Simply connect tge machine to a flatscreen and to the power-suply. The user can turn the infochannel on / off using the power-button. No mouse / keyboard is connected ofcourse - so the machine is simply sold under the trademark "Dental Kanal".

The most important part is ofcourse that the fact that it is running on amigas makes it fun to work with. Being able to comunicate directly with the hardware-supplyers and OS-makers has been nice. We are also lucky to work closely with Andreas Falkenhahn -  he has been superb!

Hi there!

Well, Hollywood Designer and a SAM + OS4.1 would work perfectly for the job!  We run our infochannel in 1366*768, 24 BIT. You should point your brother to our homepage - we would love to discuss about dentistry/infochannels with him

I used Scala earlier aswell, but it can not compete with Hollywood / Hollywood Designer  Have you ever tried it ?
