Smart Navigation for Healthcare
More than just an interactive healthcare kiosk map
New Intelligent Healthcare Navigation for Hospitals
Discover how it works
Eye-In Media is proud to announce the launch of its next-generation healthcare wayfinder kiosk, equipped with a Mobile Navigation Assistant for hospitals and clinics like Lakeshore General Hospital (CIUSSS West Island of Montreal). The solution guides patients to appointments, and integrates with EHR systems for seamless healthcare experiences.
Thanks to many accessibility features, and a user friendly step-by-step guiding assistant powered with Augmented Reality, Eye-In Média was able to improve the visitor experience. We recently went a step even further by integrating with the RDV system SMS and emails. Patients will now receive automatically their path in the confirmation SMS and email!
Mobile Navigation Assistant for Healthcare

Augmented Reality View
With 360° imaging and augmented reality, our healthcare wayfinder system guides users through medical facilities using virtual arrows and realistic landmarks. This advanced technology makes hospital navigation easy for all, supporting improved patient flow and a positive care journey.
Blue-dot navigation
Thanks to a combination of sensors such as Wi-Fi network scanning (without requiring connection), our Wayfinder provides Blue-Dot Navigation indoor. While no additional hardware is required, the system is also compatible with BLE Beacons (Bluetooth Low Energy) for an even more precise experience.
Universal Healthcare Navigation Application
Multi-Device Support allows users to access 3D navigation with augmented reality wherever they are. From home, it helps identify key hospital landmarks before arriving; on a mobile phone, it provides intuitive real-time guidance, and on touch screens, users can preview the environment before heading to their destination.
