touchscreen college digital signage

Unify communications. Announcements, registration dates, emergency lockdowns, critical bulletins, class schedules, and significant notifications are all examples of typical day to day campus communications.

To share this information you have either used traditional static signage that can be difficult to change or some kind of digital signage that either lacks features or is expensive to maintain.
Now through some well thought out planning and developments in our proprietary software, we have made available a new all-in-one digital signage touch screen solution specially made for colleges.

Bringing things together

When updating our software we identified that schedules, campus events, and class listings frequently change. When talking to colleges, we were asked if we could connect their internal software with our software. Because this type of advanced 3rd party integration would increase efficiency, we added it to our list of capabilities. Software we can connect to include:
• 25Live / CollegeNet
• Outlook Exchange
• Sales Pro
• Micros Opera
• Active Directory
• EMS

The benefit of this

An example of how this integration works; when the event listings are changed in your internal software so will the event listings being displayed on the sign. This change automatically occurs.

Three other benefits

1. Improves Campus Safety

We can integrate your campus alerts system with the TouchPlus+. This emergency alerts system will help notify students, professors, and guests of real-time emergencies such as weather, campus lockdowns, power outages etc.

2. Cafeteria Menus

Digital menu boards can be used to not only upsell food items better but to better promote healthy food choices. You can use cafeteria digital menu boards to high light nutritional information while promoting new healthy entrées.

3. Campus Digital Directory and Wayfinding

Campus building directories and wayfinding displays are vital for welcoming and guiding new students and visitors through a campus. Using a touch screen digital directory you can feature professor listings, campus building information, daily events schedule, and more. You can upgrade the touch screen directory by adding a 3D ‘You Are Here’ interactive map of your campus. When a destination is selected the user receives turn by turn directions to that location.

Includes the essentials

Simply tell us what features you need, and our professional design team will create all of the layout, graphics, and set-up everything for you. Once installed, the system is self-operational and requires zero on-going maintenance.

Easy to Use

From anywhere at any time you can edit, update, and manage your entire system using your mobile phone, tablet, or computer. All changes are instantly wirelessly sent to the display.

When placing your order simply let us know which features you would like and our graphics design team will creatively incorporate everything you need into the digital signs interface. Remember, you can select as many features as you’d like and you’ll always receive the same flat-rate price from us. We do not bill by sets of features, by "slides" or design time.
