New Centro San Antonio Mobile Kiosk Delivers Help on Wheels
The Centro San Antonio Amigos help over 750,000 people a year in downtown San Antonio, and with the introduction of their new mobile information kiosk this week, they plan to help even more. The new Centro Mobile Information Kiosk trailer will be taken out daily between 9:30am and 8:30pm to various high traffic areas within the Public Improvement District including the Street Car Station on Alamo, Market Square, and La Villita. Additionally, the Centro Mobile Information Kiosk will provide support for the City of San Antonio Convention and Visitor Bureau during the construction and renovation of the Visitor Center on Alamo between January 17 and early March.
The state-of-the art trailer will provide information, maps, assistance, electronic charging stations, videos, and shade. It features two 22 inch LCD tv screens, four exterior marine-grade mounted speakers, a radio, dvd, cd, and jump drive connections to the TV. It will also have charging stations for the top five phone models, including iphones and blackberries. The trailer can operate on its own for up to 24 hours through a combination of solar power and an internal battery source.
The design of the trailer features Centro San Anotonio’s gold and dark purple colors, as well as the universal symbol for information. The trailer was fabricated here in San Antonio by Shook Mobile Technology.
