What are Interactive Screens?

 

Interactive Screens can go by many names: digital displays, smart mirrors, interactive walls, kinect screens, interactive displays etc. When we talk about interactive screens we mean a large display, either projected or created from one or more screens, that responds to the movement of users in some way.

Imagine a regular advertisement in a shopping mall. As you walk by, you may or may not passively glance at the screen. Now imagine that as you walk by, the advertisement begins to change. You glance over. As you lift your right arm, flowers begin sprouting from the top of the words. You lift your left arm and water begins filling the screen. You stand and experiment with different movements as you interact with the different elements on the screen. This is the power of interactive screen technology!

What are the benefits and features of Interactive Screens?

 

People love to feel included and in control. When customers and visitors are allowed to control some aspect of an advertisement, exhibit or installation, they immediately connect with the experience on a much deeper level than with passive forms of marketing or art. Interactive Screens – including large installations, in-store smart mirrors and interactive advertisements – have the ability to capture and hold the attention of customers much longer than traditional methods of engagement.
