 
Instead of showcasing your company’s
product on a table or display shelf in your
booth, put it “out there” with the HoloVision
from Provision Interactive Technologies Inc.
HoloVision is a 3-D screen that projects an
image so that it looks as if it is floating in
space. The screen can be encased in a
kiosk or tabletop unit, and the projected
images can vary from a single item shown
in 10-second clips to a play list of dozens of
60-second videos. The company can customize
the image/video to fit your needs. Plus, the
Provision technology does not require special
glasses to view the 3-D image. The screens
are available up to a 40-inch size, which floats the
image 4 feet away from it.

Put attendees’ high-tech toys to work for you with Turning
Technologies LLC’s ResponseWare Web. The Web-based
application allows participants to give their responses to
in-booth presentations and demos via Java-enabled
Web browsers using their Blackberries, smart phones,
PDAs, and other devices in real time. The application
immediately transfers those responses to an interactive
polling site, which is displayed on attendees’ devices as
well as on the presentation screen. The exhibitor pays a
monthly subscription to Turning Technologies to allow
a certain number of users access to the ResponseWare
Web site at a time.

While many exhibitors use the Nintendo Wii as a traffic builder, rarely do traditional Wii games have any relevance to their companies or products. But now Dunn & Co. can create a computer game customized to your specifications that runs on a PC, but is played using the Wii controllers and a monitor. From golf and racing games to hang-gliding challenges, Dunn & Co. can develop a game that will engage and educate your booth visitors.

frame and hardware
components are made with
Green materials and using
Green practices, including

recycled polyester and non-

 When most people think
about light bulbs, a
bulb shape is precisely
what they envision. But
the Light Tape from Display Supply & Lighting Inc. offers a different dimension of lighting. The Light Tape looks like a flat tape or sheet that comes in a variety of colors and widths, from 0.25- to 6-inch tapes to panels measuring 24 inches wide. Available in 12 standard colors, it can be used to light graphics or as accent or back lighting in an exhibit.

 Get more square footage out of your exhibit’s footprint by extending your booth skyward with 2 Storey Stands’ Double Deck structure. Constructed of aluminum beams, the two-story structure measures 15-by-15 feet, is nearly 14 feet tall, and does not require a forklift for I&D. Used as a meeting room, demo area, and more, the stand includes storage space and anodized-aluminum flooring. The Double Deck is available for purchase or rent.

 Forget the same old laser pointer for your next trade show presentation. The Afterglow system from Afterglow Inc. allows presenters not only to point out text on a screen but also to “draw” on the screen, taking the tool from a pointing device to an interactive part of the presentation. For example, presenters can point at important text and draw a circle around it as well. The system includes software, a laser pointer, a special camera and lens, a tripod, and a 6-foot USB cable. The Afterglow can be used from virtually anywhere in the booth, giving the presenter the freedom to walk around and interact with the attendees.
