Overview
With the rise of smart cities and the need for efficient, contactless communication, Australian local councils are turning to innovative technology to serve their communities. Metrospec partnered with several councils to deliver weatherproof Touch Screen Outdoor LCD Kiosks that provide real-time information, public services, and wayfinding for residents and visitors alike.

Metrospec supplied custom-built Outdoor LCD Kiosks designed for public environments. Each unit features a high-brightness screen, vandal-resistant enclosure, and intuitive touchscreen interface, allowing councils to provide interactive maps, events, community updates, emergency notices, and more.
Key Features:
IP Rated, Vandal-Resistant Enclosure
