Interactive digital signage solution enhances visitor engagement and hygiene education at Manor Farm
Pacific designed and installed innovative touchscreen and interactive signage solutions to improve the visitor experience while helping Manor Farm encourage good hygiene practices.
Manor Farm, an educational farm attraction in Hampshire, engaged with Pacific to use interactive digital signage in inventive ways to solve some of their challenges.
The project focused on two key areas across the attraction: the visitor handwashing stations and the interactive farm maps. Pacific designed and installed solutions that combined technology with engaging content to improve the guest experience.
The Solution
At the handwashing stations, Pacific created an interactive game using outdoor-rated screens and sensors. When young visitors approach the stations, animated characters guide them through the correct handwashing process, encouraging them to wash for the recommended amount of time while showing germs being gradually chased away.
This approach transformed handwashing into a fun and engaging part of the visitor experience, helping Manor Farm encourage good hygiene habits among its guests.
To address the challenges around constantly changing animal locations, Pacific designed and installed an outdoor-rated touchscreen display with an interactive map powered by Omnivex Moxie digital signage software.
The map allows guests to select the animal they want to visit, with digital footprints showing the current route around the farm. Staff can also access a hidden menu to quickly update animal locations as they move between enclosures, ensuring the information remains accurate.

How We Did It
Pacific combined outdoor-rated hardware, interactive content and digital signage software to create reliable solutions that could operate within a busy visitor attraction environment.
The handwashing stations were designed to engage younger visitors through interactive animations, while the touchscreen map provided a flexible alternative to traditional printed signage that could quickly become outdated.
By designing solutions that were simple for visitors to use and easy for Manor Farm staff to manage, Pacific ensured the technology could continue to support the attraction long after installation.
Results
The completed installation has helped Manor Farm improve visitor engagement while encouraging better hygiene practices through interactive technology.
The digital map provides guests with up-to-date information throughout their visit, while the interactive wash basin displays make handwashing a more enjoyable and memorable experience for younger visitors.
