Jump to first matched term ATLANTA, Nov. 7 /PRNewswire/ -- Cybernetic Services, Inc., (CSI) (OTC-BB: CSIX) announced today an agreement with Network International and the Louisiana Superdome to supply the hardware, software and services for CSI's new Video and Text Messaging product, a sports and news information service. The contract is structured as a combination of base compensation plus a percentage of the advertising revenue generated from the venture, which is estimated to total over $50,000. CSI's Video and Text Messaging product is to be broadcast over the existing Superdome network of video displays. Using breakthrough patented technology, known as the SRIII, the service enables subscribers to select specific categories of information out of the up-to-date news stories written by CSI's award-winning, seasoned team of journalists. Depending upon the venue, the product can be used to combine reports and advertisements with selected newsbriefs, thereby creatively communicating with patrons and employees. The Louisiana Superdome, home of the New Orleans Saints, is a multi-event facility that houses concerts; business conventions; a variety of professional, collegiate and high school sports events including the Super Bowl, Sugar Bowl and NBA exhibitions; as well as family events such as ice, auto and boat shows, and the circus. This contract is expected to significantly increase the exposure of CSI's products to the marketplace; over 2 million spectators visit the facility every year, approximately 20 percent of which are corporate attendees. Mr. Pat Streko, Director of Sales -- South Region for the advertising and sponsorship sales representative of the Louisiana Superdome facility, Network International, stated, "We have chosen Cybernetic Services as the provider of this service to the Superdome because CSI offers the most comprehensive information for our needs. With a wide array of events at our facility, the Video and Text Messaging service enables us to easily download the specific information of interest to our spectators; from business, entertainment, news, sports and beyond. We believe that the additional amenities provided by this product will enhance our patrons' experience at the Superdome." "The agreement with Network International is especially exciting since Super Bowl XXXI will be held at the Louisiana Superdome," stated Neil S. Kohrn, Office of the Chairman and CEO of Cybernetic Services. "Large arenas such as this one are ideal for advertisers because the captive audience base may be directly targeted. The Louisiana Superdome will be the first in many athletic venues that we hope to install."
