Visitors to the SFU Surrey campus have an innovative new means to find their way around, thanks to the ingenuity of two recent graduates.
Launched just in time for the Fall semester, when hundreds of new first-year students will be coming to the campus for the first time, the interactive wayfinding kiosk is located on the mezzanine level of the campus.
The system was developed by Matt Jeffrey and Gordon Manson, who graduated from the School of Interactive Arts and Technology at SFU Surrey last spring. It includes such functions as room search, room information, current events and advising-centre information.
Manson says the system is already operational, though they will make adjustments over the next few weeks based on user input. He says they hope to market the system to other institutions.
