Playaway Products Rolls Out the Launchpad Quest Interactive Touchscreen Hub
Playaway Products introduced Launchpad Quest, “a 21.5-inch interactive touchscreen hub, purpose-built for libraries and shared community spaces serving children ages 3–10.” It comes preloaded with up to 150 curated apps, games, and storybooks and doesn’t require downloads, updates, Wi-Fi setup, or license management to use. It also doesn’t collect any personal data.“Developed in collaboration with library systems nationwide, Quest was created in response to growing demand for a non-circulating, large-format digital experience,” the company notes. The touchscreen has large icons, picture-based navigation with narration, and age-based filtering. Users can explore six core subject areas from content partners such as the Smithsonian, Hasbro, and Highlights. For more information, read the press release.
