CHICAGO — ADFLOW Networks, provider of Web-hosted digital-signage and interactive-kiosk solutions, has partnered with Shopguard, a manufacturer of electronic surveillance systems, to develop trigger technology for tethering products.
According to a news release, the two companies are working to standardize the interface for any application that connects to tethers, through all vertical markets, eliminating the need to customize applications.
Continuous enhancements are being made to the trigger technology, the companies say, which will enable connectivity not only to phones, but other devices such as cameras and camcorders, from in-store kiosks.
The technology is expected to enable consumers to experience video-playback samplings, detailed information about specific features, as well as information comparisons for displayed items. "With our combined expertise, we are developing a streamlined process of bringing trigger technology to the tether," said Dan Kozyra, director of technology solutions for ADFLOW. "We are working together to enhance this technology for interactive kiosks."
