Interactive 'instant expert' kiosk on display at InfoComm 09

Digital Signage Expo: Tandberg and .advancedMethod have combined their respective technologies to develop the Instant Expert/Translation Station, an interactive video kiosk that variously serves as a connection to live experts or digital signage. The kiosk/video station will allow instant video contact with a subject expert or an interpreter at the touch of a button. According to Seattle-based .advancedMethod, the system offers a retailer, mass transit hub or any other customer-facing facility the ability to have an "instant expert" on hand at any time. It can be used anywhere a retailer or organization needs more of a presence without hiring additional employees. The companies will demonstrate the product at InfoComm 09 next week.
