Since our company major business focus in digital advertising in elevators networks, we offer two types of elevator advertising hardware:
1. LCD narrow screens EI-Series:
a. Slim Dual screen with a size of 18 inches and 10.5 inch. Two-in-one screen digital signage b. Slim UNO 21.5-inch screen is our new LCD screen model.
Both screens are powerful advertising digital signage specially made for in elevator advertising.

Suitable for in elevator advertising cabin usage and at the front of elevator digital out-of-home advertising.
2. Ultrashort throw advertising projector Ei Mini Lifter. Suitable for elevators doors advertising powered with distance measurement sensor and ads video analysis tools.
Eastidea won’t recommend purchasing a large format advertising screen bigger than 21.5 inch as it's expensive and not really suitable for elevator advertising. In addition, we won’t recommend purchasing an elevator screen with mirror as it's not good for advertising and only suits for interior design instead of doing pure advertising.
