Costly hardware? Long queues for the issue and return of transmitters and receivers? Constant disinfection? Regular maintenance? All this is a thing of the past with the NOUS GroupGuide! With this innovative group guidance system, visitors use their own cell phones. They simply scan a QR code and can immediately join a group tour.

Hygienic and safe

The Corona pandemic has changed many things. Even though visitor numbers and tourist activities are slowly increasing again, many people no longer want to use rental devices.... At NOUS, we have been working hard on this issue and have developed contactless alternatives to traditional visitor information systems. One of them is the NOUS GroupGuide. It shifts the communication between tour guide and guests to the private smartphone. The tour guide downloads the NOUS GroupGuide app onto his cell phone and generates a QR code. His group participants only have to scan it with the camera of their own cell phone to follow his explanations. There is no need to borrow transmitters and receivers - and no need to clean and disinfect rental devices.

Distant and yet close

Smartphones have a significantly greater range than conventional radio systems. This not only allows minimum distances to be maintained, but also much greater freedom of movement in general. The connection remains stable at any selected distance - no matter how quietly the tour guide wants to communicate with his guests.

Sustainable and efficient

Conventional group guidance systems are often expensive to purchase and maintain. These costs are completely eliminated with the NOUS GroupGuide - as are the electricity costs for charging stations for devices. In addition, the extremely low data consumption of the NOUS GroupGuide of only 200KB per second contributes to a reduction in CO2 emissions. The sustainability of your brokerage offers is demonstrably increased.
