Macatawa, MI and
Austin, TX – June 21, 2011
- After 15 months of
stealth product development, Yikes unveils its awaited wireless
proximity-based
guestroom access control solution, yLINK, at the world’s largest
hospitality
technology expo HITEC. The yLINK utilizes wireless and proximity-based
technologies to allow hotel guests to bypass the front desk and
securely access
their guestroom without the need of a key. This solution will also
serve as the
platform for delivering future applications such as proximity-based
advertising
and energy management features. Thanks to Yikes’ expanding ecosystem
and the
ultimate zone controller, hoteliers will soon be able to effectively
deliver
meaningful information and advertisement to the guest’s mobile device
based on
the guest’s profile and location within the hotel.
“We are very excited to launch yLINK, our proximity-based access solution for the hospitality industry. We believe yLINK and its future expansion applications will soon revolutionize the guest experience and provide hoteliers a vehicle for connecting with their guests in a meaningful and non-intrusive manner. We look forward to redefining the guest experience with our partners.” said Yikes President and CEO Ben Robertson. This exciting solution will be available for private showing at HITEC at the Yikes’ booth #543.
