Netshift Builder 7
NetShift software transforms off-the-shelf commodity
computing platforms into secure, tamper-proof and ergonomically
sound public access self-service applications.

Isolating and protecting your application and systems environment
from damage caused by either malice or accident.
NetShift Builder is a best-of-breed specialised
development environment. It facilitates the design and construction
of innovative and exciting public access applications that
leverage industry standard web technologies such as HTML,
Java, XML, COM and others. Builder allows the designer to
create a fully customised product that both looks good and
offers a range of functional features, from buttons to advertising
banners. The completed applications are delivered using
the NetShift lightweight runtime mechanism. This enables
the deployment of finished systems into field situations,
and provides a robust and resilient high-availability operating
environment.
Supporting the full range of industry-standard
web plug-ins, NetShift Builder benefits from close integration
with standard browser technologies, easily accommodating
future technology and operating system changes.
The NetShift public access technologies
are the most widespread in the industry today. In conjunction
with the NetShift Enterprise remote management system, the
NetShift Software Suite constitutes an unbeatable basis
for a successful, profitable and future-proof network.
Builder incorporates an integrated fully configurable custom
keyboard designer capable of rapidly producing professional
quality virtual keyboards that can run in either NetShift
or non-NetShift (e.g. industrial process control) environments.
Keyboards can be built to your own design and functional
specification and be run as an integral part of NetShift
Runtime or as a standalone application, using the Keyboard
Runtime module.

fully capable of being managed by NetShift Enterprise.
- Integrated fully configurable virtual keyboard system
facilitating keyboards to be built to your own design
and functional specification.
- Extremely flexible user interface configuration is now

into deployed applications (subject to appropriate license
conditions).
- Deployed networks are now hugely scalable.
- Additional support for the industry-leading plug-ins
is provided.
- Fine-grained control of the systems operating environment
is now possible.
- Easy integration with NetShift Payment.

- NetShift Communications Module
NetShift 7 allows optimised communication for GPRS and
3G and connection routing. Connection routing allows the
device to intelligently choose different connection methods
dependent on need, for instance, broadband for media downloads
and a dedicated link to legacy transaction systems. The
new version also includes a Smart Download Manager. This
allows rich media files to be segmented and seamlessly
reassembled allowing better control over downloading.
Additionally, it is possible to specify when these transfers
take place, allowing downloads to occur over pre-defined
periods of time.
- NetShift User Recognition and Personalisation
Module
Through mobile phones, RFID tags and swipe cards the interface
of the device can be made relevant to the user by delivering
targeted banner ads and content. Personalised information,
including loading of cookies, allows the user to have
their own desktop wherever they go. This feature improves
the kiosk experience and makes the content more applicable
to the user. And of course privacy is not forgotten either.
NetShift securely cleans up after the end of the session
keeping private information private! And within the device
increased levels of encryption ensure greater security.
- Additional Device Support
NetShift 7 is designed to support an enhanced range of
devices e.g. through glass technology, plasma screens,
tablet PCs.
