Videotel Digital rolls out WAVE to Play Gen2 proximity sensor

The What: Videotel Digital is introducing an all-new upgraded WAVE to Play proximity sensor.

The What Else: WAVE to Play Gen2 features two ports, enabling it to connect to nine additional WAVE to Play devices and a dial that can be set to trigger one of multiple programmed videos. The unit is roughly half the size of the original (now 3.5 inches x 2.25 inches x 1 inch), making it easier to accommodate and comes with a cable that allows for dry contact triggering, which means that it can now be integrated with most media players or any other device that requires a dry contact switch. The device comes standard with three wires: six-feet to connect to a player, two-feet to connect to another WAVE to Play unit and a six-foot dry contact wire.

The Bottom Line: WAVE to Play is a proximity sensor that responds to the “Wave” of a hand, allowing the viewer to trigger a video on a digital signage screen from a distance of between one to three inches. WAVE can be installed underneath any non-metal material up to three inches thick. It’s an ideal, touchless solution for businesses that wish to engage viewers interactively on any interactive displays or kiosks. Rapid TV News
