InfoScreen / Digital info board with autorefreshed report

Hi

I have a requirement to display a report with some KPI figures on a TV screen in a large office, so that all people working in the office can look up and see "how are we doing today".

I already have a report that auto refresh with CL_GUI_TIMER, but showing it on a public/shared screen raise a lot of questions. I know it is a little off-topic ABAP Development, but I still hope to get some input from the community.

Some of the questions are simple things like "how to prevent screen saver" to more complex questions about license.

Should we use some kind of Kiosk mode?

Is there some digital info board software that is helpful?

I have been thinking about another simple solution generating the report as a PDF file via a repeated background job. The PDF should then be stored in a folder that some simple software use as basis folder for a slideshow.

As you can see I am currently in brain-storm mode, so all inputs are welcome.

Regards Thomas
