Digital Phone Kiosks Hit NYC

Digital signage has rolled out on phone kiosks in New York City, providing the capacity for instant updating, writes Media Life. The New York State Lottery’s need for instant updates drove the development of the program, which was installed at 100 sites across the City earlier this summer. The Lottery’s campaign used the digital portion of the sign to announce and update Mega Millions jackpots. The program uses satellite technology to update the illuminated LED numbers in real time.

The panels measure 26 by 50 inches, with the digital portion 20 by 7 inches. Average daily effective circulation (DEC) is estimated at 17,250 to 34,500 per kiosk, depending on location.
