Emera Astronomy Center Kiosk

The Emera Astronomy Center replaced UMaine’s older center and was opened to the public in October of 2014. Part of the contract with Emera asked for an informational kiosk to be housed within the center.

Below is an image of the ‘Home’ screen. This is the root of the project although a screen saver is technically one level ‘above’ this. Click the image below to see the whole kiosk, or follow this link.

I worked with two other students over the course of several months to conceptualize, design, develop and deploy the kiosk. We used HTML/CSS/JS and several JavaScript libraries to create it. I became the lead designer but had a hand in almost every facet of development.
