Tampa deploying smart city kiosks downtown
December 23, 2020
The Tampa Downtown Partnership will install about 30 digital informational kiosks from IKE Smart City of Columbus, Ohio to provide information on local businesses and serve as free wireless hotspots, according to a Tampa Bay Times report.
The Partnership hopes to install the first kiosks in high-traffic areas before the Super Bowl on Feb. 7.
Each IKE — short for Interactive Kiosk Experience — features information about local businesses, attractions and events. The kiosks will text directions and contact information to users' phones.
IKE Smart City sells ads for each kiosk which Tampa officials will vet. The Tampa Downtown Partnership will receive proceeds through an agreement to manage content about local businesses.
