Digital Posters Used For Interactive Wayfinding
Digital posters have come such along way in a short period of time, now using touch screen technology they can be used as a way finding solution.
A digital poster is not just designed for displaying dynamic advertisements, these can now be used for way finding for example on a University campus, they can also provide information for the food courts, such as daily lunch specials and when lecture rooms change, directions can be uploaded quickly with little error.
The reason why this type of way finding is becoming increasingly popular, is that guests love to interactive, and having a touch screen on a digital poster allows the user to find directions to their desired location, ideal for hotels wanting their guests to navigate their way to meeting rooms, bars and most importantly the spa without incident.
The way finding software can be added easily to the memory card or by the USB connector and then when a guest selects this the start point from each digital poster with be static and will provide accurate directions, resulting in a more enjoyable stay for the guests and will certainly create a good talking point for your guest when they are back home.
The touch screen is a protective panel that protects the actual LCD screen, this has both vertical and horizontal infra red light beams that create a grid across the front of the digital poster, then when someone clicks on a section and breaks the beam with their finger they have made a selection, then they are taken deeper into their selection until they get what they are searching for.
Way finding has been looked at as expensive, however by using interactive digital posters anyone can create a way finding solution at a very affordable price. The cost effectiveness of the solution will certainly have a fast return on investment.
On the flip side, when the electronic poster is not used for way finding it can revert back to it’s original application of providing dynamic, digital advertisements to hotel guests and visitors to campuses. This way you get a solution that has two applications with minimal deployment costs for under $1000.
