Designed and built for TELUS World of Science, Edmonton, this centralized display platform replaced a manual, error-prone communication process with a streamlined system that keeps visitors informed in real time.
The TELUS World of Science in Edmonton needed a smarter way to communicate with its visitors. With a high-traffic public facility to manage, staff were faced with the ongoing burden of keeping guests informed across event scheduling, cafeteria menus, and promotional advertising.
Doing this manually across a large venue was time-consuming, error-prone, and simply not sustainable at scale.
I was engaged to design and build a centralized digital display management system from the ground up. Working as a full-stack developer, I took full ownership of the project, from gathering and translating business requirements into a technical design, through to coding, testing, and production deployment.
The finished system drives 40 digital displays throughout the facility, delivering three distinct content streams to visitors in real time: event schedules pulled automatically from the venue's ticketing and planning platform via third-party API integration, cafeteria menu information, and promotional advertising content.
A purpose-built administration interface gives TELUS World of Science staff direct control over menu and advertising content, with no technical knowledge required to make updates. Event scheduling data feeds in automatically, eliminating manual entry entirely for that content stream.
Forty screens. Three content types. One automated system. What previously would have demanded constant manual attention across dozens of displays now runs with minimal staff intervention, keeping visitors informed and the venue running smoothly day to day.
I design and build practical full-stack solutions for real operating environments, especially where reliability, usability, and maintainability matter.
