Technology
Freespace is an advanced android app which comes pre-loaded on two proven hardware options. It can only be used on Freespace hardware.
Ethernet
Freespace V1 depended on the device wifi which sometimes dropped out, so our V2 hardware has Ethernet ports to ensure data is uninterrupted.
Caching
V2 has caching to make sure if connectivity is interrupted Freespace still displays information.
Regular Updates
The app-based approach allows fast updates release. New versions (11MB) can be pushed out overnight without manual intervention. A version log allows users to roll back to previous versions.
Interface
The meetings are presented as familiar grid. The subject, organiser, attendees, and detail are displayed in a pop-up window when you touch a booking.
Calendar Grid
By default five days are displayed. Change the number of days and start time in settings.
Swipe and Pinch
Scroll up and down, or swipe on the calendar to go forward or backwards, or pinch to zoom. You can also swipe through the image gallery.
Customise with Images
A large area of the screen is for your company logos, special offers, way-finding maps, emergency exit map, or room photos. Freespace displays up to five images which it grabs from user-defined urls, so you can easily deploy updated images centrally. Images cycle at a user-defined speed.
Landscape or Portrait
It can display in portrait or landscape mode (tablet only).
Weather
A optional weather icon warns delegates what to expect outside.
