Peterborough Crematorium
Kate Day of Peterborough Crematorium required a solution to view the Book of Remembrance at all hours even when the Book Room was closed. We came up with a solution of a dual sided kiosk. The kiosk has a two TFT monitor screens (non touch) one on each side of the kiosk and two slot badge scanners to operate, one inside and one outside. During the time the Book Room is open the users would sit at the kiosk and swipe their access card to access the information. When the Book Room is closed the users can access the kiosk from outside the Book Room building by swiping their access card through a weather-proof reader and view the information through a window.
Aldershot Crematorium
Aldershot Crematorium required a solution to view the Book of Remembrance at all hours independent of the Book Room. The solution we came up with was a hole-in-the-wall touch screen kiosk. Rushmoor Borough Council had a doorway which was surplus to requirements so we designed and installed a touch screen kiosk to fit this space. The unit is manufactured from mild steel with a solid surfacing finish to blend in with its surroundings. A weather-proof touch screen was installed to stand-up to the elements and the kiosk complies with DDA (Disability Discrimination Act) requirements allowing wheelchair users to access the kiosk forward facing. The unit operates 24/7 365 days of the year.
Mansfield Crematorium
Sally Curtis of Mansfield Crematorium required a solution to allow visitors to access the Book of Remembrance and allow users to create personal tribute pages to their loved ones. The Book Room is very small on space allowing only a handful of people at a time access so a traditional kiosk was out of the question. we came up with a solution to wall-mount the kiosk to maintain maximum floor space and still allowing a wheelchair user to use the service forward facing. The unit comprises of a TFT monitor screen (non-touch) and a slot badge scanner to access the information. The kiosk is eco friendly by shutting down in the evening and starting up again the next morning, all carried out automatically.
Hull Maritime Museum
Hull Maritime Museum required a solution for visitors to view the Memorial Book of Fisherman. The Museum had already installed a touch screen kiosk some years ago which was a typical metal, matt grey colour, which did not suit the surroundings. When the touch screen kiosk failed, Tom Goulder of the museum contacted us to see if we could provide a touch screen kiosk more in-keeping to the surroundings. We installed our Apollo touch screen kiosk at a cut-down height of 1200mm instead of the usual 1500mm to allow easier access for children and the disabled.
