Qsignage 4.0: an interview to define the boundaries of real interactivity, functionality and performance in digital signage

/in

Several hundred installations in a dozen different locations worldwide; an history dating back to 2010. This is, in a nutshell the track record of Quintetto’s digital signage platform, Qsignage 4.0. A story that is still flying high with new vibrant perspectives for the closing of 2022. Now, an article created by our friends and partners at Softec Spa takes stock of the situation of digital signage as a media “tout-court” and defines the new boundaries of a market segment still battled between poorly performing digital “billboarding” and really effective tools for interaction with customers to grant superior communication and interaction experience.

Qroom-plus / holographic co-working station project takes off in Aosta

/in

Qroom-plus is the name of the new project from Quintetto that has been selected for financing in the frame of the Call for R&D clusters of the Economic Development, Training and Labour Department of the Aosta Valley Region. The project has been presented officially in Aosta on Wednesday 13th of April during the event “Territorial development policies for a digital, sustainable and green Aosta Valley” in collaboration with the Chambre Valdôtaine des entreprises et des activités libérales – Desk SPIN2 and Confindustria Valle d’Aosta.
The project involves the design and creation of one pre-production prototype of a holographic co-working module, enabling several users connected simultaneously to the system, to engage in active and concrete cooperation activities through their holographic representation and reciprocal view/hearing/speaking. The prototype is meant to constitute the foundation unit of a fully scalable modular system.

This moves telepresence to a new degree of sophistication allowing it to serve real world situations with practical and user-friendly systems being able to overcome limits of space, distance and functionality.

The pre-production prototype is planned to be delivered in April 2023, one year from now.

Holography: our future presence?

An interview with Martin Richardson, Professor of modern holography, unveils a broad perspective for holographic telepresence in services, communications and arts as well.

André Martinuzzi, head of the Institute for Managing Sustainability of Vienna University of Economics and Business (WU Vienna) with whom Quintetto is collaborating on the front of holographic services, recently interviewed Professor Martin Richardson from De Montfort University at Leicester (UK). Professor Richardson is an expert on holography and its various fields of application being these commercial, functional or even artistic.

During the video interview (which can be found here), Professor Richardson points out a few key elements that are paramount for the understanding of the great potential that holography used for performing functions and not only for entertainment, can have in our daily life.

On efficiency of relationship and person-to-person  interaction:

“The standard two-dimensional format of flat screens is tiring for the eyes. Holographic telepresence overcomes this problem, as it offers a more curved reality, which provides incredible collaboration possibilities to its users and creates a much higher attention span.”

On customisation of individual experience:

“There is something about the pureness of a three-dimensional holographic telepresence, which takes on a different meaning for its user.”

On advancements in the technology:

“Apart from the increasing application of holograms in our daily life, there are ways emerging that use holographic optical elements, which overlap the world of holography with the real world. The actual big push in science is using holograms within Augmented Reality.”

The interview covers a very wide spectrum of aspects of holography, some unexpected and, in any case confirming that the impact of the technology on operations whatever the field of application, is exponential from the User Experience side to the actual achievement of greater efficiency and performance with respect to other technlogies.

Quintetto receives a patent for its holographic service desk solution – Q-room

Quintetto S.r.l has been awarded a patent for its holographic service desk solution

Q-Room, the holographic telerelationship room

 

Pont Saint Martin, Italy October 11th, 2018– Quintetto, is proud to announce that it has received a patent (patent N. 102015000056697) from the Ministry of Economic Development in Italy. The patent has been awarded for its commercial holographic telerelationship solution, Q-room. The patent is a recognition of the intense and sophisticated research and development work carried out by Quintetto in the field of interactive relationship services, a success shared with the National Research Council of Italy, who owns 10% of the patent.

Having already been awarded, the Seal of Excellence by the European Union in both 2016 and 2017, this is a giant leap forward in securing the IP-rights of a product that has been called the future of smart banking.

Q-Room is a holographic telerelationship room, which allows people to interact from remote locations, while given the experience of being in the same room. The state-of-the-art room design is based on advanced optical perceptions. It combines hardware (cameras, monitors, computers and speakers) with a specific scenography (lighting, sound, reflections and interior design) to create lifelike hologram representations of people and space. Physical interaction is based on real facial expressions, gestures, and subtle nonverbal cues that are the foundation of a meaningful communication experience.

Q-Room was developed on Quintetto’s Immersive Content & Communication Platform that provides State-of-the-art Artificial Intelligence (AI), multiple in-and output mechanisms to enhance the man-machine modality & holographic mixed reality to create a natural environment for customer services and relationship building.
