The University of Winchester continues to support a healthy lifestyle through digital signage

This educational center has installed an Elo 3201L interactive touch screen that serves as a center to inform about the allergens of the foods they include in their menus, as well as a platform to display promotional and marketing messages.

Con 175 years of history, The University of Winchester currently has about 7.500 enrolled students. Its catering department works to offer a healthy lifestyle to students and maintain customer service.

This department was looking for a way to provide information about allergies, through a tool that allowed them to interact with students and staff.

“Our goal was to increase the availability of crucial information that university staff and students require about allergens in each of the dishes we offer on our menu daily.”, explains Rob Ferrin, Head of Media, University of Winchester Catering Department.

To achieve the objectives, they opted for a digital signage solution that was supplied by Eclipse Digital Media who chose to install the screen, with integrated PC, 3201L of Link Touch and the software Embed Signage, Allergy Information Board.

The Elo 3201L is a 32 inches high definition, member of the line of interactive digital signage developments (IDS) by Elo Touch, that presents a touch screen where interactive digital content can be displayed.

Elo Touch IDS technology helps retailers enhance the shopper experience and improve sales through real-time promotions and other consumer-engaging resources. A tool that offers 24x7 performance and maximum security.

This solution provides the University of Winchester with not only allergen information for menus but also a means to display marketing messages and promotions..

The school has the opportunity to redesign and modify its content by adding and removing pages of interactive content, when they need it and, besides, it is possible to program it. This is the first initiative of the project but its objective is to expand the structure and install more units.

“As a university we are committed to improving the student experience, This is why our objective is to expand this digital signage project in new points of sale”, adds Ferrin.
