Interactive displays are being used to elevate user experience in a wide variety of shared spaces. Everywhere from restaurants and cafes, to classrooms, offices and even gyms.
Interactive displays are essentially large versions of tablet computers with touchscreens. They can be used to display visuals and animations, for example, to create a calming environment in a spa or gym lobby. Another use would be as an interactive tool to help manage bookings in a restaurant or to allow self-service check-ins at an airport or hotel.
Whatever your needs, there is an interactive display to meet them. Here are some of our recommendations for the best interactive displays on the market.

Best interactive displays for offices
The Cisco Webex Board is a fantastic option for office meeting rooms. It allows you to wirelessly present, has a whiteboard function, audio and visual conference calling features and even allows you to annotate shared notes as you go.
It integrates well with other Cisco tools and apps so if you’re already using these products in your office, it’s a no-brainer.
However, if you’re looking for a more budget-friendly option, we also recommend the Yealink Meeting Board. This works with Microsoft Teams and also has great audio and visual conference calling functionality, as well as a collaborative whiteboard feature to facilitate productive group work.
Best interactive display for retail and hospitality
For interactive displays best suited to retail and hospitality businesses check out ELO screens. They have an expansive range of screens to facilitate everything from simple displays, to self-service kiosk screens and handheld payment tools.
They even have temperature screening software which helped retailers and hospitality companies to stay safe and compliant during the Covid-19 pandemic. Their products can also be optimised with a great range of accessories to tailor them specifically to the needs of your business.
Best budget interactive displays
For affordable and durable interactive display solutions we recommend Allsee’s digital signage range. They have a bunch of options for self-service ordering, display screens, or smaller kiosk displays.
Whether you want to allow customers to browse products in-store, place orders, or simply view adverts as they wander through your space, Allsee has a reasonably priced interactive display option for you.
The best interactive displays for art exhibitions
For interactive art exhibitions, you’ll likely need a simpler solution such as a PC linked to a display screen or projection. For these setups, be critical about the quality of screen or projector you're using, as they will directly impact the quality of your work. The Panasonic PTRZ990 is one that we use which lends itself brilliantly to pixel mapping, allowing you to cover a large area and non-standard shaped canvases, without losing quality or showing seams.
A simple programme can be set up to trigger the display via a motion sensor or people tracker to save energy and create a more interactive visual effect.
The best interactive display for sport and gaming.
For the best option in the world of sports, fitness and physical gaming, look no further than MultiBall. This display can be installed on any wall, or stand alone, making it very flexible and versatile. There are various sizes and configurations available that make it suitable for both dark and brightly lit spaces.
It’s most commonly used for interactive fitness games for events, in offices, retail spaces, and fitness centres but can be very easily integrated into other software to enable presentations, cinema viewing, virtual fitness classes, and other functions at the touch of a button.
From interactive entertainment at events to a simple video wall in offices, retail spaces or gyms, the MultiBall display screen is a great all-round option to meet your needs.
