NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Websults LLC, a Web strategy consultancy, now offers touchscreen kiosks to collect data from customers or as a marketing-support tool to present information in an interactive fashion.
According to a news release, Websults started developing touchscreen kiosk applications in 2008 as part of a larger project for museum-exhibit company Eureka Exhibits and its traveling exhibit, "Be the Dinosaur." Two separate kiosk applications were developed for the exhibit.
"The kiosks build upon our vast experience designing and developing Web-site applications," said Jonathan Weindruch, principal of Websults. "Their primary advantage is location, which means organizations can interact with customers and partners without requiring them to turn on their computer, connect to the Internet, and visit a certain Web site. The touchscreen applications are ideal for physicians and healthcare providers who want to improve the speed of their patient-registration process or any organization that wants to leverage locations with existing foot traffic."
Applications developed for the "Be the Dinosaur" exhibit were recently featured at the Louisville (Ky.) Science Museum. Because the touchscreen kiosks require no keyboard or mouse, they are easy to use for children as well as seniors, according to the release.
"Websults' responsiveness and ability to work with us throughout the process was truly exceptional," said Mark Kirby, operations manager of Eureka Exhibits. "We came in at every stage on time and on budget, and I highly recommend Websults to any organization seeking to expand its Web presence or develop browser-based applications."
