Touch Screens For Digital Signage

Commercial touch-screens add fun-factor to a digital signage network.

They also require an extra level of strategy and planning so that they bring value and convenience to the user, your customer.

Let’s start with placement. Where are you going to put the screen and what sort of protection does it need? For example, can you run power and data safely and securely to the location? Since the media player is usually integrated with the display, will the unit have the processing grunt you need to run content and engage viewers?

You should consider the content that users will be navigating through. This is very important. What is the content strategy? How will that content be hosted, delivered and updated?

When choosing any kind of digital signage solution there’s a lot to think about. Therefore, a commercial touch screen display needs to:

  • be robust enough to run any video content without freezing
  • have a warranty that supports 16/7 or 24/7 commercial use
  • be housed in a tamper-proof but accessible space
  • be built to a high standard with appropriate safety approvals

Decisions

As you can see, there are a number of decisions that need to be made when choosing a touch screen kiosk, and we’re here to help guide you through that process. To get the discussion going, we’ll need to know a few things.

  • Will you be using a custom app or connecting to a website
  • How will the content be managed and updated?
  • What sort of mounting will you need – wall, pole or other
  • Do you require shop-fitting to house the display?
  • Is power and data readily available?
