On the mobile device (the remote control), it displays information about the current media, including cover art.
The Wifidog project is a captive portal solution that has three main functions: location-aware delivery of internal or external content, authentication and authorization, and centralized network monitoring. Most of the contributions to its development came from wireless community groups, so this is the model with the most support. However, Wifidog has an extremely generic design. As such, it is now used by several other types of organizations. With relatively small amount of development it can also be used for many other business models.
ePoint HotSpot is a firmware for wireless routers based on OpenWRT with some ePointy extensions and an ePoint-branded UI theme. It is distributed as a stand-alone flashable firmware-image, as a set of extension packages for OpenWRT, pre-installed on wireless routers, and in source code. It is aimed primarily at catering businesses, Internet cafés, and medium-sized communities (e.g. residential co-ops) wishing to share their Internet connection on a fair basis. The primary target hardware is WRT54GL by Linksys.
YFi Hotspot Manager is a modern AJAX Web front-end for FreeRADIUS 2.x. It has support for vouchers, permanent users, billing post paid, and pre-paid. Multiple languages are supported. Statistics can be generated. It works with CoovaChilli and Mikrotik. It runs on Ubuntu and CentOS. It has Google Maps integration. Third party systems can be integrated.

Mole (Mobile Organic Localization Engine) provides room-level geoposition estimates using existing WiFi infrastructure. When you create an entry in the database by naming a room, your and other users' mobile devices will recognize when they are in that room. Other applications can poll or monitor the current room estimate and act accordingly, with context aware behavior. Because too much WiFi scanning drains batteries, it uses accelerometers and other tricks to keep scanning to a minimum while keeping update latency reasonable.
