VIENNA, Va. — Lucidiom has received three DIMA Innovative Digital Product Awards for its technology offerings in the photo kiosk space, according to a news release.
The first award was for the company's "Scene Me" white screen technology. Similar to the green screen used in the movie industry, Lucidiom's Scene Me is a white screen application for the APM photo kiosk that enables users to put themselves in a variety of scenes depending on the content offered by the retailer. A customer visiting a Lucidiom APM photo kiosk equipped with this feature might choose to create a custom comic strip by placing their child's photo within a licensed Marvel Comics scene or next to Hanna Montana on stage.
Lucidiom also received an award for the Lucidiom EQ coordinated social expression products, which include gift wrap, note cards, folded cards, invitations, banners, posters, photo books and covers, proof books, notepads and envelopes. Lucidiom is the only retail imaging company to offer a wrapping paper template for photo kiosks, according to the news release.
Lucidiom's latest kiosk software version, APM 7.0, also received a DIMA Award. The new version features instant photo uploads from the in-store kiosk to the customer's Photo Finale Web account, as well as the new retailer up-sell engine and a redesigned Product Finder.
"Lucidiom's coordinated social expression products are the 'Do you want fries with that?' of the photo industry," said Steve Giordano, Jr., president of Lucidiom. "With all the Long Tail possibilities of the personal publishing world, even retailers that market their products will often struggle with letting consumers know about all the creative possibilities. Now, we've built the coordinated product suggestion right into the APM order process."
The awards took place at the PMA International Convention and Tradeshow in Las Vegas. PMA is a professional trade association that helps the worldwide photo imaging community adapt to new technologies.
