In an age where convenience, security, and flexibility are more important than ever, businesses and public facilities are rethinking how they welcome guests. Whether it's a health clinic entrance, a municipal building, or a corporate campus, the ability to greet and screen visitors at the door—before they enter—is becoming standard.
That’s why we’re excited to announce a new hardware partnership with Virtual Front Desk—a leading remote reception and visitor management software platform. Together, we’ve developed a purpose-built outdoor kiosk bundle designed to bring secure, connected check-in functionality to any environment, no matter the weather.
Why Virtual Front Desk?
Virtual Front Desk offers a feature-rich, cloud-based solution that replaces or extends on-site reception services. Their platform supports:
- Video and phone call routing
- Badge printing and document sharing
- MS Teams integration
- Multilingual support
- HIPAA & GDPR compliance
- Full activity reporting and logging
With growing demand for unattended or semi-attended visitor check-in stations, especially in healthcare, government, and logistics sectors, Virtual Front Desk needed a hardware partner that could keep up with their platform’s flexibility and reliability outdoors.
The Hardware Challenge: Outdoors Isn’t Optional
Unlike indoor deployments, outdoor tablet kiosks face real-world challenges:
- Weather fluctuations
- Moisture intrusion
- Heat buildup
- Security tampering
- Poor signal strength without Wi-Fi
To meet these challenges, Armodilo adapted our award-winning Wall Mount tablet enclosure into a weather-resistant, low-profile solution with advanced airflow, secure cable routing, and tamper-resistant features—all tuned for Samsung Galaxy Tab Active5, a rugged 8" tablet rated for tough environments.
Introducing the Outdoor Virtual Front Desk Bundle
We co-developed a hardware bundle tailored for Virtual Front Desk’s outdoor stations, featuring:
Included in the Bundle:
- Armodilo Wall Mount Enclosure (colours, Low Profile, Pushpin Lock)
- All-Weather Coating for added environmental resistance
- Samsung Galaxy Tab Active5 (5G-ready, IP68, MIL-STD-810H, replaceable battery, glove-ready touchscreen)
- Tamper-resistant cable routing and camera clearance
- Installation hardware + security screws
The bundle is now featured on Virtual Front Desk’s Outdoor Station page as a recommended solution for outdoor deployments.
Built for Frontline Environments
This bundle is ideal for:
- Remote facility check-ins
- Healthcare clinics and mobile sites
- Logistics yards and warehouse gates
- Corporate security checkpoints
- Public-facing government buildings
What Makes This Partnership Work
The strength of this partnership lies in our shared belief: technology should simplify and elevate the visitor experience, not complicate it.
By combining Virtual Front Desk’s software with Armodilo’s industrial design and manufacturing expertise, we’ve created a system that’s:
- Easy to deploy
- Visually clean and professional
- Tough enough for long-term outdoor use
- Scalable across multiple locations
