Durateq® Handheld ATV (Assistive Technology Version) Device

Overview

For a truly immersive experience, content can be triggered automatically as your customer enters an exhibit or show area, with no need of pressing additional buttons or punching in number codes. And more importantly, the content can be synchronized with the audio and video content in the venue for a true real-time experience.

The Durateq ATV (Assistive Technology Version) is the most technically advanced solution for facilities such as theme parks and museums delivering technology used by individuals with disabilities.

This includes Audio Description, Assistive Listening and Closed Captioning. Based on our own rugged Durateq 3100 handheld, the Durateq ATV is combined with Captioning Studio and ALICE (Assistive LIstening and Captioning Engine) software making it ideal for deployment in facilities desiring greater accessibility to exhibits and attractions content. The Durateq ATV can also support multi-cultural accessibility with an unlimited number of languages.
