Not losing touch with the world "outside" is a key element of prisoners' successful reintegration into society after serving sentence. PrisonMedia offers an innovative approach to this important prison task by combining a great variety of modern electronic media devices into one compact system. This gives prisoners the chance to maintain close contact with family and friends and to keep up with current knowledge.

PrisonMedia allows for education. Prisoners can finish school or train for a profession while serving sentence (e-learning). On top of that, they can use their restricted access to modern communication channels (internet, email) for preparing their life after prison.

Prison facility and staff on the other hand benefit from a comfortable, centrally controllable compact multimedia solution that helps to reduce their workload in many areas: When entering prison, PrisonMedia is 100% "clean", since it comes directly from the manufacturer. The thorough and labour-intensive inspections that all electronic devices normally supplied by prisoners' families and friends must go through before they are approved for use, can be skipped.

The system has no hiding spaces and is protected against any form of manipulation by malfunction sensors and a tampering alarm. Due to an additionally integrated battery backup these keep on functioning reliably even in the event of a power loss.

  • one device solution in a modern plastic cabinet or in an optional vandal-proof steel housing
