An investigation into interactive and non-interactive displays in the new Student Union Building
In the new Student Union Building (SUB) scheduled to open in 2014, there will be a need for display boards to display information such as events and sustainable features of the new building. The purpose of this investigation is to find a combination of displays to effectively communicate the selected information with users of the SUB. Three different options for the arrangement of the display boards were considered: A) Have one large TV directly connected with small interactive displays, B) many small interactive displays, or C) a few small interactive displays with a separate large non-interactive display. The most effective option was found to be C). Suggestions regarding the location of the displays and the content that should be displayed on them are made. A triple bottom line analysis is conducted to examine the social, economic and environmental impacts of each display option. The paper concludes that light-emitting diode (LED) displays should be used for the large display boards, and a specific brand of industrial touch screen should be used for the interactive display boards. Disclaimer: “UBC SEEDS provides students with the opportunity to share the findings of their studies, as well as their opinions, conclusions and recommendations with the UBC community. The reader should bear in mind that this is a student project/report and is not an official document of UBC. Furthermore readers should bear in mind that these reports may not reflect the current status of activities at UBC. We urge you to contact the research persons mentioned in a report or the SEEDS Coordinator about the current status of the subject matter of a project/report.” ; Applied Science, Faculty of ; Unreviewed ; Undergraduate
