New Era in Public InteractionPandoPad is a uniquely modern DOOH (Digital Out of Home) interactive and non-interactive Digital Signage solution for entertainment, information, communications and advertising in public places. Regardless of your industry, PandoPad will help you deliver your message to your target audience.

They can use it to provide information, education, entertainment, communications, publishing, market research, presentations, to gather intelligence, to sell something, or for some other form of interaction. PandoPad is flexible and easy to manage.

Design That Attracts Attention and Incites ActionPhysical design was another key challenge in PandoPad creation. Enormous effort was spent in designing each element, paying attention to every little detail. From units down to PandoPad Applications user interface. The goal was to create a chameleon that will blend with every location or brand, yet be recognisable, attractive and beautiful.

Info Kiosk as a gadget

People still need it but today they want it to work completely differently than before and they want it to look different. They have had enough of bad user experiences with the info kiosks so far.

Branding

Branding or rebranding of a company, group of companies, product line, product, event, ... runs easily with PandoPad both on the screen and housing.

A large "tablet" on the wallPeople actually want to experience what they have experienced on the tablet. Therefore we are combining our software, design and hardware to offer a similar experience on the big screen.Note: interpolations in the walls are also very commonly used.

Interactive window

This is a very common situation. If you have a window facing the street or passage, in a shopping mall, business building or an airport. Interactivity is achieved by applying the touch foil and the installation is done from inside the glass so it is fully protected.

Custom designed editionsIn the case where there is a special request from designers and architects for different embodiments of PandoPad, we will support such a project with full performance.

THE STAR Project Implementation

Beautifully designed desktop

PandoPad® Desktop is the base page which invites the user to initiate an action and launch other applications.The home screen of every interactive digital signage solution is its greatest challenge. It must attract user’s attention, be appealing, yet intuitive and easy to use by all despite its inherent complexity.PandoPad® Desktop supports presentation of textual, pictorial, video and animation formats, accompanied by appropriate audio. Home Button provides for return to PandoPad® Desktop from any page in any other PandoPad application. The application can be designed from the PandoPad Manager.PandoPad supports multiple desktops with a simple home button back navigation.

Multimedia Advertising

PandoPad® AdsHub enables presentation of advertisements or other information content, interactive or static.PandoPad® AdsHub is an ideal tool for your marketing or corporate communications. In case of non-interactive deployment it can be used as a classic free standing Digital Signage solution. When used with interactive deployments it usually serves to display desired content when no user is interacting with PandoPad.The content is managed through PandoPad® Manager. In addition to pictorial content the application also supports animations and video.

Call to action

Interaction should provoke and call to action. On interactive screens in public spaces this is a little bit different game than on the web.

Local wayfinder

PandoPad® Local Way Finder shows building floor plans or maps of the immediate surrounds. In addition, this application enables exceptional advertising possibilities.

Through PandoPad® Manager locations on floor plans and maps can be marked as “points of interest” (POIs), which, when touched, display detailed information about the location as well as its location with respect to PandoPad’s location. Objects on floor plans or maps can be categorized with respect to their attributes. They can be described by use of text, photo-gallery, video clips, 360o view, QR codes etc.

Image and video content presentation

PandoPad® Gallery is an application designed for presentation of pictorial and video content.A user is offered album browsers to select a group and navigate through content moving things around the screen by hand. Graphic and video content may contain photos of featured products, services, landmarks, video presentations, etc. For The Star we created multiple image and video galleries for the bars, restaurants, and other pictorial presentations.

Presentation of brochures

PandoPad® Pages is used for presentation of brochures, magazines, books, and picture books.User browses through the content arranged on a “book shelf”. Selected item is displayed in large format, so the user can then browse through pages as they would with printed edition. Through PandoPad® Manager, the administrator can easily adapt PandoPad® Pages visual presentation to conform to particular brand standards and manage content.

Sending eCards and eCouponsPandoPad® eCard/eCoupon is one of the most popular PandoPad applications. It can be used in a number of ways.Through classical eCard user interface, integrated with email system, a user may send a virtual postcard from another city, or entertaining content from a shopping centre etc. The second form, eCoupon, enables users to send sales coupons to their friends in a similar way (via the integrated email system), directly from shops, shopping centres, hotels and other such locations.Both eCard and eCoupon can be used as a ‘PinBoard’ to display promotional leaflets.In addition to postcard or coupon each email that is sent can also contain, at the bottom part of the message, marketing messages, links, other coupons, calls to action etc. These elements are automatically added by the application, as configured by the administrator through PandoPad® Manager.

PandoPad Manager

PandoPad Manager (1/2)

Each PandoPad comes with PandoPad® Manager - its proprietary advanced content management system (CMS), that can be accessed through any browser on any type of PC, laptop, tablet, or smart phone.Content Management is a key for success of any Digital Signage project. Without rich and up to date content your Digital Signage solution will quickly become unattractive to users. Once you lose their attention it is hard to reclaim it. In our experience customers often wish to avoid the responsibility for managing their own content. They seek to transfer that responsibility onto agencies or solution vendors. One of the reasons is their previous painful experience with content management systems (CMSs).For this reason we endeavored to design our PandoPad® Manager to make it as simple to use and as practical as possible, without sacrificing advanced functionality or full accessibility at any time and from any location.
