Neonode is a provider of optical sensing solutions for touch, gesture control, and remote sensing and in recent months the company came up expanding exposure of its technology solution in new areas. In August, Singapore Changi Airport started using the company’s Neonode zForce technology in contactless self-check kiosks. Happyhover is a touch emulating solution developed by Singapore-based Arctan Analytics Pte Ltd. which has already been used in automated check-in and bag-drop kiosks at the airport.
Singapore Changi Airport, one of the largest transportation hubs in Asia and ranked as the World’s Best Airport, combined Neonode’s technology with that retrofit solution. In the face of COVID-19 pandemic, enabling contactless processing powered by touch sensor module of Neonode eliminates the need of passengers touching the screen to select their option by simply pointing their finger close to the screen.
