Snap-On Tools

• Industry: Corporate / Trade Show
• Product: i-Kiosk
• Software: Custom Software Project

Background

Snap-on Tools needed an interactive kiosk for a trade show, one that could integrate with a damaged-car display that lit up specific trouble areas on a real vehicle. The touchscreen would highlight areas of the display relevant to the problem being solved, turning a static exhibit into a hands-on demonstration.

Business Challenge

• Snap-on needed to engage trade show attendees with something more memorable than a standard display
• The kiosk had to integrate with physical lighting on an actual vehicle, syncing screen interactions to lights on the car
• Custom lighting elements and software had to be built on a very short deadline
• The result needed to stand out on a crowded trade show floor

Solutions Delivered

Advanced Kiosks developed a custom interactive solution pairing an i-Kiosk with custom lighting integrated into a real vehicle on the show floor. Custom software had to be developed to drive the experience on a tight timeline.

The system delivered:

• An interactive light-up vehicle synced to the kiosk interface, when users touched a trouble area on screen, the corresponding lights responded on the car
• Custom visuals and sound effects to draw attendees in
• A memorable, hands-on way to engage trade show attendees

Outcome

The interactive car display was a hit at the show. By linking the touchscreen to lights on an actual vehicle, Snap-on turned a routine trade show exhibit into a hands-on demonstration that drew attendees in and held their attention. The custom visuals and sound effects made it stand out on a busy floor.

Delivered on a very short deadline, the project shows Advanced Kiosks’ ability to build custom hardware-software integrations for high-impact promotional use, not just standard self-service deployments.
