Design Science Creates Battery-powered LFDs

Design Science of Toronto, Canada, has developed battery-powered large displays that can be run from military specification lithium ion batteries to support 12 hours continuous use on a single charge, including video display and interactivity.

“We’ve put almost a decade of R&D into getting these displays to levels of performance, safety and flexibility that we know the marketplace demands,” says Chester Niziol, CEO of Design Science. “We’re specifically solving the problem of getting high impact digital communications in the optimal positions for marketers, and making those displays fully portable, so they can be repositioned on demand.”

The units range from 15″ to 46″ units (which are in units with lockable wheels).

The Design Science series includes:

  • Three interactive podium units – at 15, 23 and 32 inches – with projected capacitive touchscreens tilted at 45 degrees, in landscape mode, suitable for directories and product explainers;
  • Two standing floor models with vertical 1080P displays in portrait mode – at 42″ and 46″ – with lockable wheels that allow easy repositioning in any environment;
  • Three ultra-slim standing floor models with vertical 1080P displays in portrait mode, at 15″, 23″ and 32″. The displays are supported by a pair of open-air legs that minimize the visual footprint in environments like fashion retail;
  • Tabletop models in three sizes – 15, 23 and 32 inches – that can easily be nested with product on merchandising tables and shelves, and relocated without worrying about power or cables.

The units all support dual voltage and can be used in Europe, Asia and elsewhere by attaching simple wall plug adapters.
