Interactive Digital Experiences:

Custom Wayfinding – To help customers find their way to the products they want in the immense Texas location, Nebraska Furniture Mart turned to Reflect to develop a wayfinding application. Five interactive kiosks located at the main, west garage, and east Grandscape entrances, provide guests with store information, department locations, and optimal routes presented on a touchable 3D map of the store.

Custom Retail Application – Reflect developed a retail application that resides on 42-inch touch displays located on columns throughout the first and second floor of the store, seventeen touchscreens in total. This application helps customers locate specific items of inventory in the store. Each item of inventory has its location available in real-time and is searchable and locatable by the application. The application is tied to the retailer’s back-end systems to ensure information shown to the customer is automatically updated as inventory moves throughout the store.

Interactive Branded Applications – Reflect installed several touch sensitive displays in the KitchenAid shop and appliance area of the megastore. The 18 interactive branded applications provide customers with brand/product specific information, specs and availability, and are all equipped with directional sound systems.

Credit & Registry Kiosks – Reflect installed and runs 20 gift registry and credit application kiosks throughout the store. The kiosks are dispersed on all floors.
