Outdoor LED Advertising Kiosk

A freestanding advertising unit has to survive rain, sun and passing traffic, and still be readable at midday. An outdoor kiosk puts the screen, the player, the power supply and the cooling into one sealed enclosure with a service door. Content is pushed over the network, so a route of units is updated from one place instead of by hand. Brightness normally follows ambient light so the unit does not glare at night.

How it is specified

• Screen size, pixel pitch and brightness for the daylight level on site
• Protection rating of the enclosure, and the cooling method used
• Player and content management: local, networked, or scheduled from a server
• Single or double sided, and the direction the unit is viewed from
• Structure: base plate for bolting down, or a weighted mobile base
• Power feed, surge protection, and whether battery backup is required
• Service access: front door, rear door, or a lift-out screen module

Where it is used

• High streets, plazas and transport interchanges
• Shopping centre forecourts and car parks
• Bus stops, fuel stations and drive-throughs
• Campus and park wayfinding points
