Elo Introduces New 70-Inch Interactive Digital Signage

MILPITAS, CA--(Marketwired - Mar 10, 2015) - Elo Touch Solutions (Elo), original inventors of the touchscreen, today announced the 7001LT 70-inch interactive digital signage (IDS) platform. The built-for-touch professional display combines an energy-efficient LED HD infrared touchscreen with optional Intel^® Core™ i5 computing modules running Microsoft^® Windows^®. The rugged design of the 7001LT offers system integrators and value-added resellers (VARs) a scalable, high-performance solution that is easy to deploy and maintain in heavy-use, public environments such as airports, office buildings, healthcare facilities, retail stores, railway stations, and shopping malls.

"Our latest generation 70-inch touchscreen digital signage provides higher touch sensitivity and brightness to give 'tablet-like' performance in a giant 70" size. The low profile design integrates beautifully into modern interior designs for retail, office, hospitality, or public space applications," said Craig Witsoe, CEO Elo Touch Solutions. "Unlike consumer TV companies, Elo builds only commercial grade touchscreen products so we are able to deliver uncompromised performance, durability, and aesthetic design at an affordable price point."

Elo interactive digital signage helps retailers sell more in-store through connected brand experiences. Endless-aisle availability, connected fitting room, product education, item customization, and other self-service applications come to life on a digital canvas as big as your imagination. Elo is reinventing point of purchase to embrace new forms of payment, engage shoppers at the point of decision, reward loyalty, and ensure fast service with great looks and some creative innovation. Contactless payments such as Apple Pay™, Google Wallet™ and Samsung Pay™ are supported through an optional NFC accessory module.
