Interactive Tools
for Storytelling

Storytelling is a key part of the museum experience that can be enhanced with digital interactive tools, which empower visitors to engage with narratives on deeper levels. Touch screen displays and multi-touch video walls encourage more active participation with exhibits, forging stronger cognitive and emotional connections.

To meet the demands of public museum venues, video walls and displays require designs that protect equipment and ensure performance reliability over long time periods. Proprietary coating LCD and LED technologies—such as Planar® ERO™ (Extended Ruggedness and Optics™) deliver durability in high-traffic environments. Solutions with off-boards electronics and built-in redundancies guarantee uninterrupted operation and minimal downtime.
