Luminator Technology Group
BiStable ChLCD Low-Power Display System
Luminator Technology Group’s BiStable display systems are suitable for indoor and outdoor use and require very little energy to display information. In fact, energy is only briefly required while updates are made. When power is turned off the existing information will continue to be displayed indefinitely until the next update is received. An optional solar panel and battery enable the solution to be completely self-sufficient in applications where no power grid is available. All equipment can be flexibly mounted to a pole, wall, or structure.

BikeLid
BikeLids
BikeLids are hassle free for riders and management. They stand the test of time, are impervious to the weather, never freeze shut, are scratch and graffiti resistant, rust and dent proof, can be pressure-washed, outside and beneath, even when in use, and long-term ownership costs are among the lowest of Class 1 bike parking solutions. The raised sculpted design, coupled with the interior bike-support frame, discourages human or animal habitation, garbage collection, or use for any purpose but bicycle and bicycle accessory storage. BikeLids enable complete security monitoring without opening.
