Baltimore-based NV3 Technologies announced today that it will deploy its LCD touchscreen kiosks and digital signage in both the Baltimore Visitor and Convention centers as part of Visit Baltimore's 2011 Festive Summer agenda.
The initial deployment, scheduled for later this spring, will include at least four of NV3's LCD touchscreen kiosks and 10 customized HD LCDs – each of which is powered by an NV3 mediaBOX media player. In addition, NV3 has installed a new projection solution that will utilize laser technology as well as advanced programming software. The solution will play a custom-built intermission between showings of the Visit Baltimore movie that shares information on upcoming festivals and the newly released iPad app for Visit Baltimore.
Visit Baltimore is the official marketing organization that drives the city's economic growth through the attraction of convention, group and leisure visitors.
Visit Baltimore President and CEO Tom Noonan said the next six months mark a milestone period for branding Baltimore as a destination, with events like the NCAA Lacrosse Final Four, the 136th Running of the Preakness Stakes and the inaugural Baltimore Grand Prix.
"In NV3 Technologies, we have found a local partner that helps us provide the City's guests with the utmost convenience, service and quality," Noonan said.
"NV3 Technologies is proud to bring this technology to the community," NV3 Managing Partner Ryan Doak said. "The kiosks and informational screens will allow visitors to quickly locate attractions and events in a self-service environment. The software that is currently in development will tie the kiosk to an interactive Google Maps interface that will allow for quick and easy service."
