Touch Screen Kiosk Terengganu: Arvia Named Smart City Partner

On 19 October 2026, Israk Solutions’ sister brand Arvia was named a strategic technology partner for Smart Terengganu 2040, the state’s smart city blueprint led by PLANMalaysia@Terengganu, showcasing a touch screen kiosk Terengganu audiences could try firsthand at the Duyong Convention Centre (DCC), Pulau Duyong, Kuala Terengganu.

What Smart Terengganu 2040 Is About

Smart Terengganu 2040 is the state government’s long-term blueprint for turning Terengganu’s towns and cities into smarter, more connected places to live and work, covering local authorities across the state including Kuala Terengganu, Dungun and Marang. A touch screen kiosk Terengganu residents can actually walk up to and use is a small but telling example of what that blueprint looks like in practice, rather than on paper.

As part of the AV and display technology family behind Arvia, Israk Solutions shares an interest in seeing this kind of public-facing interactive technology take hold across Terengganu and beyond.

Local authorities adopting a blueprint of this scale often face the same practical question: which pieces of technology actually reach the public, and which stay confined to back-office systems nobody outside the council ever sees. A touch screen kiosk Terengganu residents can walk up to in a public building answers that question directly, by being visible, usable and genuinely part of daily life rather than something only mentioned in a report.

A Horizontal Touch Screen Kiosk for Terengganu

At the DCC event, Arvia showcased a horizontal touch screen kiosk Terengganu visitors could interact with directly, demonstrating the kind of wayfinding, information display and self-service touchpoint that a smart city can put to work in public spaces and local authority buildings.

A FlipTouch-Powered Photobooth Experience

Alongside the kiosk, a photobooth was powered using FlipTouch, a portable touchscreen display from the same hardware family, giving attendees a fun, hands-on way to engage with the technology on the spot rather than just viewing it from a distance. It was a small but memorable way of showing that smart city technology does not need to feel distant or purely administrative, it can also be approachable and genuinely enjoyable for the public.

Key Features at a Glance

This touch screen kiosk Terengganu showcase brought together several pieces of technology:

• A horizontal touchscreen kiosk for public-facing information and self-service use
• A FlipTouch-powered photobooth for an interactive, hands-on event experience
• Smartboards already deployed in local authority (PBT) offices across Terengganu
• A strategic technology partnership between Arvia and Smart Terengganu 2040

Meeting Terengganu’s Leadership

Arvia’s team had the opportunity to meet YBhg. Dato’ Hj. Wan Mohd Sukairi bin Wan Abdullah, Pengerusi Jawatankuasa Kerajaan Tempatan, Perumahan dan Kesihatan Negeri Terengganu, together with YBhg. Datuk Ts. Dr. Alias bin Rameli, Ketua Pengarah PLANMalaysia (Jabatan Perancangan Bandar dan Desa), at the event. The conversation centred on how practical, visible technology like a touch screen kiosk Terengganu residents can actually use supports the state’s smart city ambitions in ways people can see directly.

What This Means for Terengganu’s Smart City Journey

A strategic partnership at this scale is a meaningful step beyond any single installation. It reflects a longer-term role supporting how the state’s local authorities, from Kuala Terengganu to Dungun and Marang, adopt interactive and display technology as part of their everyday operations, not just as one-off upgrades.

For residents, that can eventually mean more public touchpoints, like the kiosk showcased at the DCC, appearing in council offices and public spaces across the state as the Smart Terengganu 2040 blueprint continues to roll out.

It also gives other states and local authorities a working example to look at, rather than a concept to imagine. Seeing a touch screen kiosk Terengganu attendees could try for themselves on the day, alongside the photobooth and the smartboards already in use in council offices, makes the idea of a smart city feel immediate rather than years away.

Why This Partnership Matters Beyond a Single Event

It is easy for a smart city blueprint to stay at the level of planning documents and policy statements, especially one covering as many local authorities as Terengganu’s does. What made the DCC showcase worth attending was that it put actual, working technology in front of state leadership and the public at the same time, rather than describing it secondhand.

That hands-on approach reflects how the Arvia and Israk Solutions family prefers to work with government partners generally: showing up with equipment that is already running, rather than only presenting specifications and promises. For a state-level initiative the size of Smart Terengganu 2040, being able to see and touch the technology firsthand tends to carry more weight than a slide deck ever could.

Installed and Explained by Israk Solutions in Terengganu

Israk Solutions continues to support organisations across Terengganu and Perak with the same family of AV and interactive display technology showcased at the DCC, from touchscreen kiosks to smartboards.
