• Touchscreens educate about energy efficiency

0 Comments
CHICAGO — As Americans become increasingly aware about the importance of being "green" to protect the environment, businesses strive to communicate their green message. NextWindow, a company that designs and manufactures optical touchscreen overlays and OEM touch components, together with Quality Automation Graphics, a provider of control systems graphic design for the building automation industry, are helping building controls companies and building owners convey their "green" message through the use of interactive touchscreen kiosks that display building energy efficiency data to the public.
 
Displaying energy-efficiency information on an interactive display also helps a building owner earn credit towards the U.S. Green Building Council's Innovation in Design Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) system, which recognizes companies for innovative strategies that demonstrate quantifiable environmental benefits.
 
"There's a growing trend towards building owners using large format monitors to display all kinds of critical building data for a variety of uses," said Anthony Uhrick, NextWindow's vice president of sales in North America. "Using NextWindow and Quality Automation's interactive touchscreens, a building owner can educate the public on the viability of green buildings while making the content interactive."
 
One of the largest building controls companies in the world is incorporating Energy Star-rated 46-inch LCD's using NextWindow Touchscreen Overlays on the LCD. This provides a solution for the building owner to display energy efficiencies about LEED certified solutions used in the building.
