LIVE IT LTD and SSTC Inc Join Forces to Increase Venue Capacity During COVID
4.8.2020 14:03:00 EEST | Business Wire | Press release
SSTC and LIVE IT have announced their new system DSD: Dynamic Social Distancing that aims to maximise the capacity at events whilst sticking to social distancing guidelines. The system allows venue owners to get more people seated meaning greater revenues and so less impact from social distancing and can be adjusted as guidelines change.
LIVE IT’s Sales Director Charles A. Bruner said, “DSD has shown increases in occupancy of upwards of 30% over the best existing methods which, besides maximising revenue, could mean the difference between a viable operation or closure for many organisations.”
DSD: Dynamic Social Distancing system uses advanced algorithms to dynamically optimise available venue seating while sales are being made. It allows organisers to implement social distancing rules and regulations while optimising for the maximum safely allowable occupancy.
“Automating social distancing by utilizing seating algorithms as in the DSD: Dynamic Social Distancing product, is one way that event organizations and venues, can transition from lockdowns to greater capacity at live events.” noted Jim Brown, Director, SSTC Inc.
DSD is exclusively available in the UK from LIVE IT one of the UKs leading suppliers of ticketing solutions and technology.
DSD works with most digital event management and ticketing software solutions and is available now.
