One of the key strengths of Ideum is its ability to integrate cutting-edge technology into its products. The company has been at the forefront of touch technology since its inception - developing multi-touch tables long before they became mainstream. Today Ideum offers an extensive range of touch displays including large-format displays up to 86 inches diagonal size as well as smaller form factors such as tablets.

In recent years the company has also been exploring new ways to interact with digital content without touching screens or buttons. This led them into developing touchless interfaces using technologies like gesture recognition cameras or voice assistants like Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant.

Ideum's hardware products are designed for durability and reliability - built from high-quality materials that can withstand heavy use in public spaces. They are also customizable so clients can choose from various finishes such as wood veneers or powder-coated metal frames depending on their aesthetic preferences.

But it's not just about hardware - Ideum also creates software solutions tailored specifically for each client's needs. From interactive games to educational apps or data visualizations – the possibilities are endless when it comes to engaging visitors through digital experiences.

One example of this is Ideum’s collaboration with the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History & Culture (NMAAHC) where they developed an interactive exhibit called "The Making A Way Out Of No Way". This exhibit features a large-scale multi-touch table where visitors can explore stories about African American resilience during times of adversity throughout history using photos videos audio recordings documents maps timelines etcetera all presented through an intuitive user interface designed by Ideums UX team.

Another example is their work with Intel Corporation where they created an immersive experience showcasing Intel’s latest technologies at CES 2020 – one of the world’s largest consumer electronics shows held annually in Las Vegas Nevada USA.
