WAi2Go: Application & Content Management

Sophisticated ACM tools help build applications, manage content and analyse usage

WAi2Go’s ACM toolset provides a single-point, multifaceted but easy-to-use back-end system for the control of all platform applications.

Within the ACM role-based access can be assigned the various stakeholders who may have different remit or levels of authority to update platform content.  

 

Authorised personnel may extract analytics, push new notifications, edit event information, modify floor plans and maps, add scheduled closures or warnings and manage digital signage and touchscreen kiosks.

Multi-Channel Communication: maximising user engagement
and information dissemination 

The channels WAI2Go supports: desktop browsers, kiosks, tablets and smartphones

Where communication to users across multiple channels is required, WAi2Go offer solutions for:

 

  • All major mobile and desktop web browsers
     

  • Apple iOS & Google Android tablets and Smartphones
     

  • Digital signage & interactive kiosks/totems

​The WAi2Go signage player can be installed on Windows or Linux-based digital signage or touchscreen kiosks. An easy-to-use administrative interface allows control and management of device content by authorised personnel via the signage management console within the platform dashboard, and the ability to push notifications to all or selected devices for all outdoor and indoor mapping applications. Content can be scheduled, or alternatively triggered by proximity to a particular event, or the crossing of a threshold (e.g. environmental measurements triggering health warnings about air quality).

The platform supports the management of Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) integration using either iBeacon or Eddystone standards for hyper-local advertising and proximity-based applications. 

 

If an institution already has a student application or plans to build their own, these features can be easily integrated using our Software Development Kit (SDK).
