Streetspace wins Industrial Design Excellence Award
“Why should a public access Internet terminal
look like a shrine, closed off, walled in and private
when it is supposed to be accessible and ubiquitous
as the payphone?”

The Streetspace Web Station™ is an IDSA award-winning Internet terminal to deliver online services that can be personalized to users based on their queries and location in high traffic areas.
The Web Station™ was envisioned with the idea that users would be able to simply "Walk up to the Web" in thousands of retail locations, shopping malls, banks, transit hubs, restaurants, café's and places of interest for quick check-ins for email, information, or online services to users on the go. These sleek terminals give users a different browsing experience to surfing the Web at home as it engages the user at the point they are most likely to conduct a retail transaction, book a ticket, or make a purchase query.
The Web Station™’s popularity with users led Streetspace to design and develop a compelling technology for businesses to track profiles and browsing history of visitors to their websites. This enables businesses to filter customer needs and deliver targeted location based ads to users.
A secure customised browser provides Internet browsing, email, eBanking and eGovernment services as well as value added applications such as card readers, thermal and A4 printers. |

The Web Station™ connects to the Internet using multiple WiFi, Ethernet and EDGE interfaces. Its StreetPartner™ network manager allows customers to remotely manage the terminals, monitor usage and measure results as well as deliver specific services based on the user.
