Design 1st Arc Device Charging Center
Arc Device Charging Center is Bronze Design Award winner in 2021 - 2022 Office and Business Appliances Design Award Category.
Arc Device Charging Center

An intelligent mobile device management system in one centralized kiosk to help companies manage and charge handheld mobile devices. Modular to support device growth, the heavy-gauge steel lockers keep devices safe and unauthorized users out. A 17 inch touchscreen facilitates employee self-service, and a wide-lens security camera and RFID enforce user compliance. Arc, Asset Recharge Center, was inspired by the need for a locker-based, expandable device management kiosk with intelligent software that can track, secure, and manage devices for employees.
