Information kiosks are highly innovative solutions that can provide information in an automated and digital manner. They are often placed in public spaces such as shopping centers, museums, stations, or airports. In some cases, they are equipped with touch screens or other user interfaces, allowing the public to easily access information, services, or multimedia content.
Interactivity and usability, along with long-term durability, are key features of these structures, which are always designed with a strong focus on aesthetics.
WHAT ARE PITs – TOURIST INFORMATION POINTS?
Tourist Information Points (PITs) are public offices designed to provide general, tourist, and cultural information. These highly innovative services aim to boost tourism by assisting visitors during their stay.
Specifically, PITs cater to tourists’ needs by offering promotional and informational materials, facilitating the purchase of tourism-related products such as city cards, travel tickets for tours, and other related activities.
It is from this concept that Asteco Industria developed its information kiosks, designed to ensure both seamless architectural integration and optimal usability for visitors.
THE STEPS TO CREATING PERFECT KIOSKS
Information kiosks can provide maps, public transport schedules, and details about local events. A common example of a technological information kiosk is a station in a high-traffic area, such as an airport, offering real-time flight updates, delays, and available services.
For this reason, every model we offer is not only certified and guaranteed according to the strictest international standards but is also fully customized to meet specific needs. From shape, size, and colors to materials, logos, prints, and accessories—nothing is left to chance!
ARCHITECTURAL INTEGRATION, DURABLE STRUCTURES, AND ADVANCED TECHNOLOGIES
From Rome to Cagliari, and many other Italian municipalities, our company has developed numerous technological kiosks to serve citizens. The primary goal of these information points is to enhance the tourist experience by providing practical support and local insights.
They stand as essential resources for anyone visiting a new destination, helping travelers better plan their stay and discover all the opportunities the location has to offer.
In some cases, they can also allow visitors to book guided tours, events, or transportation.
Regarding tourist assistance specifically, the staff—usually multilingual—can answer questions, provide personalized recommendations, and clarify any doubts about getting around.
Finally, as with other structures, accessibility is a crucial aspect that should not be overlooked in these kiosks.
EVERY INFORMATION POINT IS DESIGNED IN DETAIL
All the information points we have created over the years have been custom-designed with meticulous attention to detail, tailored to specific needs. This is because multiple factors come into play each time, requiring consideration of both the installation context and the intended use of the information kiosks.
For this reason, a precise and detailed consultancy process is always a solid starting strategy.
