Zytronic teams with Touchmate on self-serve video wall for movie theaters

February 28, 2019

Zytronic, a supplier of projected capacitive technology touch sensors, has teamed with Touchmate, a digital solutions provider, to provide a video wall for movie theaters in Australia, according to a Commercial Integrator report.

Traditionally, a cinema could spend over $50,000 on a video wall, and then install eight self-service kiosks costing an extra $50,000 or more. By merging the two technologies, it is possible to cut the capital and maintenance cost in half.

As the customer approaches the machine, proximity sensors switch the video wall's content, allowing the customer to find their desired screening and complete the transaction. The content then automatically switches back to the in-house CMS programming.

Zytronic worked with Touchmate to design a custom printed 53-inch touch sensor with narrow borders, made from 6mm-thick anti-glare etched glass.
