The KEO is being placed in Hudson News stores in airports across the U.S., giving consumers a safe place to both charge their mobile phones and stay up-to-date on current events. Some 50 units are currently being deployed, with 150-to-200 to be deployed over the next two years. Hudson News is the largest airport retailer in the US, with the largest airports even holding several Hudson News outlets.

KEO kiosks provide all-in-one service including a phone charge with safe lock and charge technology, and updatable video content. Touch screen technology allows news, alerts, flight information, weather and the ability to make car and hotel reservations. Each kiosk can charge three units at once at no cost, while a fourth section is geared for music, movies and ebooks available by credit card.

KEO was designed and engineered for placement in high traffic environment. KEO features user-friendly technology and a large multimedia screen for product identification.

Traveling consumers simply place their phone in one of the charging compartments, which have all of the most popular chargers inside, and have the convenience of charging their mobile device while allowing them to shop, browse and dine in airport locations.
