Parabit Systems is to reveal its latest self-service kiosk, the New Aveta, at the Airports Council International-North America 2014 annual conference and exhibition next month in Atlanta.

The New Aveta from Parabit features interactive wayfinding and digital signage technology to entertain customers while they interact, and is designed to increase advertising revenue streams for owners through displays and telephone directories. The company said it is for use in airports, hospitals, casinos, campuses or "wherever customer service can be improved."

An interactive application with Internet access, the kiosk features include a motion sensor that activates a program when the Aveta knows there is a user present. This starts an interactive touchscreen application to engage users and show information and directions. There are three mobile-device charging bays, and the top of the Aveta features another display for advertising use, which can play video or presentations.

The kiosk also has a Courtesy Parabit Telephone that when lifted from the receiver activates a directory that the kiosk owner can program with Parabit's in-house technical support. Parabit's Phone Checker Software lets kiosk owners remotely test, retrieve call counts and program the Parabit Telephone. Owners can customize their directory based on brand and advertising revenue.

"We saw a need to consolidate multiple functions into one kiosk,"Parabit President Rob Leiponis said in the announcement. "We wanted to create a beautiful design based on the needs of our customer base—a one-stop solution for customer service needs, and the demands [of] kiosk owners who want a great ROI from a reliable product."
