The increasing global uptake of electric vehicles (EVs) and government initiatives aimed at encouraging greater adoption are expected to drive massive growth in the EV charger market over the coming years.
Providers of EV charging stations will need to consider the costs of installation, functionality, weatherproofing and powering their sites. They will need to overcome these day-to-day challenges, while extracting additional value from EV charging stations.
For example, interactive kiosks with EV charging capabilities may give communities a new way to further green initiatives while providing an information broadcasting platform during emergencies. This platform could also offer wayfinding services while promoting local events and businesses.
Advantech developed the IDP31-150 HB touch monitor series in an effort to help providers overcome the challenges presented by installing/using EV charger kiosks in outdoor scenarios. The IDP31-150 HB touch monitor series leverages a 15” screen with 1024×768 resolution and backlight brightness of 1200nits to deliver superior viewing performance. The monitors also deliver a long backlight lifetime of 50,000 hours.
The monitors feature an IP67-rated front design that resists the ingress of dust and water in outdoor installations. They feature an aesthetic bezel-less design — producing a stylish solution that prevents water ingress and resulting touch misalignment.
These monitor specifications help providers improve EV charger kiosk reliability while reducing maintenance expenses. The stylish, user-friendly design helps providers create EV kiosks that are interactive and offer added value.
