TORONTO, Oct. 27, 2015 /CNW/ - Astral Out of Home, a division of Bell Media, announced today the launch of its innovative new advertising opportunity TSA Interactive. Launching in November 2015, TSA Interactive includes an interactive screen as part of a regular static poster advertisement featured in transit shelters. The 22-inch product provides video and audio inside the transit shelter to engage consumers like never before.
A first for Toronto transit shelters, TSA Interactive will launch with 10 portable screens across the city in high traffic locations selected by clients. Designed to bring advertising campaigns to life, the screens interact with the public through a touchscreen situated in the middle of the poster ad. The system can provide a variety of consumer content, such as movie trailers, new car features, mortgage calculators, and concert listings, among others.
