I-Viewer > How It Works
The I-Viewer combines a computer, touch screen monitor, and position encoder into a single presentation module that travels on rails in front of a graphic panel or exhibit. The position encoder tracks the monitor’s position on the rails and triggers the appropriate visuals/audio keyed to the exact location on the panel/exhibit.
The IV’s robust third-generation technology delivers the cleanest, simplest, and by far the most cost-effective design currently available for this type of interactive.
The I-Viewer is an elegant interactive design that can be physically configured to match your exhibit space and requirements (see some design configurations here). Unique, patent-pending cable-free power and data systems make the I-Viewer more reliable than other moving-monitor systems. It's also much more cost-effective.
