AIX is the pre-eminent event in the aircraft interiors calendar. In 2017 Inmarsat had the largest stand at AIX in Long Beach California they have ever had at over 300SqM.

​

A section of the AIX stand had 3 education zones, one for each product Inmarsat offer. Each zone contained a ‘silent salesmen’. The ‘silent salesmen’ are 8’ tall totems with 2 Microsoft Surface Pro tablets attached them.

​

The tablets contained a pre-loaded custom app which presented the product information to the viewer in a digestible and engaging way.

​

Designed in Sketch and prototyped in Marvel, we were able to demonstrate to the client the functionality quickly and turnaround feedback in a short space of time. The app was built using PhoneGap as a wrapper to enable the app to be used offline, since we had to be conscious of the fact that WiFi isn't always reliable at Trade Expos.
