Fast casual food chain Long John Silver's recently unveiled its new digitized menu boards which transform its traditional drive-thru stops into interactive kiosks. The digitally enhanced menu boards are equipped with speakers and microphones along with high-res graphics.
"The menu board platform, provided by Allure, a division of Christie Digital Systems USA, enables digital order confirmation and full-color, high-resolution animation, video and graphics. The system allows for updates of menus and promotions. Promoted specials can be linked to historical sales trends, special events and local weather forecasts."
