Share
At this year’s BDNY, Stern Engineering secured the spotlight once again by winning the BDNY Best Product Award with its groundbreaking VacantView Washroom Display, a high-traffic solution revolutionizing restroom accessibility and efficiency. This prestigious recognition underscores Stern’s reputation as the leading innovator in touchless commercial washroom projects. VacantView offers a seamless blend of functionality and technology, setting a new standard in high-traffic restroom solutions.
What is VacantView?
The VacantView Washroom Display is an advanced digital signage solution positioned outside restroom entrances. It provides users with real-time information on stall availability, displaying which cubicles are vacant or occupied. By eliminating the uncertainty and frustration of searching for an available stall, VacantView streamlines restroom navigation, particularly in high-traffic environments like airports, stadiums, malls, and transit hubs.
How Does VacantView Work?
- Real-Time Stall Status: Sensors integrated into each stall communicate occupancy status to the display.
- High-Visibility Display: The user-friendly interface allows visitors to immediately identify availability without entering the restroom.
- Enhanced Efficiency: VacantView optimizes restroom traffic flow, reducing congestion and waiting times during peak hours, and increases hygiene.
- Seamless Integration: The system pairs with Stern’s TOI (Top Occupancy Indicator) and Stern’s Touchless Cubicles for a complete high-traffic washroom solution.
VacantView offers a functional and easy-to-install solution that elevates modern restroom spaces, ensuring a positive user experience while addressing the challenges of high-traffic environments.
