Giant iTab launches hybrid sanitis- er smartphone


Event technology and digital solutions provider Giant iTab has launched the world’s first Hybrid Sanitiser Smart- phone to keep event attendees safe during the pandemic. Based on its award-winning smartphone solutions, the new kit has added health and safe- ty features including auto hand-sani- tiser and a visitor temperature reader plus analytics to show how they were used (where and when) with an on screen message each time the sanitis- er is used. Good hand-hygiene is an integral part of stopping the spread of harmful germs and bacteria in the current climate and will be a top prior- ity for event organisers and venues as events re-start.


The 22” Hybrid Sanitiser Smart- phone has been uniquely designed for use at events as well as in offices, shops banks, hotels and restaurants. It comes with optional touch screen ca- pability enabling enhanced interaction and engagement with digital content and a temperature monitor where visi- tors offering their wrist to the infrared monitor will be given a green or red in- dicator light to confirm that they (and then fellow delegates) are safe to enter the premises. The unit can dispense both alcohol and water-based sanitiser solutions to suit all users. Water-based sanitisers, for example, are much more suitable for those with sensitive skin conditions or those who forbid alcohol for religious or cultural reasons.


Digital signage provides the flexibility to present key messages for each indi- vidual conference on the smartphone’s screen. Key information such as floor- plans, exhib - itors, speak - ers, con- ference sched - ules and delegate lists can all

or app. These replicate the smart- phone experience perfectly and are always up to date, unlike printed event guides. The choice of information displayed on screen can be adapted and changed during the course of any event such as welcome signs at the beginning, conference information during the event and the latest trav- el, traffic and weather information for visitors leaving the venue as the event comes to a close.

CEO of Palas GmbH. “Latest technol- ogies, combined with our extensive ex- pertise in the field of aerosols, make this exhalation device particularly re-


liable and accurate. It can thus help to detect so-called “superspreaders”. This can make a decisive contribution to containment, especially during the current COVID 19 pandemic”. People to be tested breathe into the exhalation measuring device BD the evaluation takes place immediately. The device shows how many particles of each size are present in the exhaled air. The virus particle sizes serve as an indicator for a the presence of a po-
