Courtyard by Marriott - GoBoard™

Four Winds Interactive and USA TODAY have partnered on a digital signage initiative that will bring an unprecedented digital concierge to each new and redesigned lobby in the Courtyard by Marriott? brand. Debuting late last year as a prototype, the GoBoard™ acts as an interactive digital information center for guests, showcasing live news from USA TODAY and running off of the Four Winds Interactive digital signage software platform. ??Now available in close to 100 hotels, Courtyard® expects to consistently rollout the GoBoard™ and lobby redesign at its properties through 2010.

Located next to the welcome podiums in the new Courtyard lobby, the GoBoard™ is displayed on a 57? LCD touch screen and is the technological centerpiece of the lobby redesign. The Four Winds Interactive digital signage software system supports the various types of content being displayed on the screen including USA TODAY, Microsoft? Virtual Earth?, weather, and local events, and then pushes them out to be viewed and interacted with by the Courtyard guest.

Live USA TODAY news, money, sports, life, and scores serve as a centerpiece on the GoBoard™ as well as a 3-day weather forecast, live stock market quotes and airport delays. Microsoft Virtual Earth displays an interactive map identifying local points of interest and near-by restaurants, making the GoBoard™ the ideal tool for the business traveler who is not familiar with the local surroundings. Developed specifically for the Courtyard™ brand by Four Winds Interactive and USA TODAY, the GoBoard™ gives the user control over the output on the screen, making it an excellent tool to customize offerings based on guest preferences.
