Touch screen hire: tips and considerations

Touchscreen devices are incredibly versatile and suit a whole range of business needs. Here’s everything you need to know about touch screen hire.

Different kinds of touch screen

Thanks to the explosion intablets and smartphones , we’re all used to touch screen nowadays. That said, the options for touch screen go far beyond those more common devices:

• Large interactive displays: Perfect for exhibition stands, presentations and product demos, large touch screens offer a fantastic way to present information in an engaging way.

• Kiosks, totems and giant tablets: These kinds of touch screen allow for self service, and are ideal to enable visitors to your exhibition stand to learn more about you and your products.

• Laptops: Laptops with touch screens (which often feature detachable keyboard and stylus) are ideal for staff who are visiting conferences – they can type on the machines, yet also stay mobile and take customer details when in tablet mode.

• Desktop PCs: PCs with touch-screen capabilities are a dream for designers, allowing them to interact with their creations in an intuitive manner.

How mobile do you need to be?

Will your employees be moving around an exhibition hall, perhaps taking down the names and details of new leads or demo-ing your products to them? Touch-screen devices with detachable keyboards could very well be the ideal kit.

Where will the touch screen be placed?

The location of your touch screen is important to consider too. Will it be attached to a wall? Do you have space at your exhibition stand for a giant tablet? These kinds of considerations are important in order to decide which type of device is right for you.

How do you want passers-by to interact with you?

Depending whether you are exhibiting at a conference, in a shopping centre or some other environment, you will have different plans for interacting with passers-by. For example, if you are demo-ing a new piece of software, you might want a smaller screen you can show off to just one or two viewers. On the other hand, if your goal is to let members of the public scan through your company’s shopping catalogue, a kiosk might be the way to go.

How many input methods do you need?

Standard touch-screen devices are designed pretty much exclusively for use with the fingers. However, there are other devices which allow interaction with styluses, a mouse and keyboard too – so think about how many ways you want to interact with the screen.
