November 21, 2010

Intava, a provider of touch screen solutions for retailers, announced that Ethan Allen has selected Intava Vector to power the company’s new touch screens in participating Ethan Allen Design Centers nationwide.

“We are pleased that Ethan Allen selected Intava to support the company’s commitment to providing premium interior design solutions for its clients,” said Troy Carroll, CEO of Intava. “Through the new touch screens, Ethan Allen clients will be able to browse and discover furnishings by room or style and then see any piece in vivid detail, all through an intuitive touch screen interface. Ethan Allen is well known for its innovation, and that is evident here, with clients shopping in an entirely new way and design staff able to visually share ideas and products.”

Ethan Allen will deploy the touch screens in most of its U.S. retail locations this fall. The touch screens are powered by Intava Vector, a visual merchandising and shopper assistance solution customizable for any product category. In addition, Ethan Allen’s network of touch screens will run on the Intava Sphira application platform, providing Ethan Allen with complete control through web-based content management tools, centralized system health monitoring, remote diagnostic and administration tools, and store-by-store usage reports.
