For the latest Space Needle kiosk project, Olea worked with the Space Needle group to create a customized kiosk that not only included innovative interactive functionality, but could also withstand the rigors of millions of users annually. The Space Needle kiosks are based on the 32-inch Milan Landscape, fitted with a bar code scanner and interactive touchscreen interface. The bases of the kiosks were made smaller than the standard Milan Landscape model for a reduced footprint that consumes the least possible floor space. The bases have been bolted to the floor to ensure that the kiosks will withstand the wear and tear caused by the heavy foot traffic of this iconic landmark.
