Wireless Hand-held Monitors

Intelligent Engineering. Wireless Technology. Turn-key Operation.

Hand-held Wireless

Figaro Systems, Inc.—innovators and global leaders in multi-lingual text delivery systems for the performing arts—introduces the Simultext® wireless
hand-held monitor, the compact solution to text delivery for every patron in the house. Simultext® wireless provides a completely turn-key system with computer, transmitter, software and, of course, Figaro's trouble-free installation and straightforward training. Plug it in. Start it up. It's that simple.

Easy Access for Audiences

Our wireless hand-helds are designed to display seven channels simultaneously in any written language in the world, just like our seat-back system. They're the perfect solution for installations where translation or closed captioning is needed for a segment of the audience such as Broadway shows, Las Vegas reviews, way-finding, walking tours, galleries and museums. Our wireless system can easily accommodate non-English speaking patrons or the hearing impaired and deaf with our comfortable hand-held units that hold a robust charge throughout the performance.

Text and Graphics

Multi-lingual translation, program annotation, sponsorship recognition, and closed captioning can be sent to and immediately displayed on the individual hand-held wireless monitors. Incremental installations with financing and leasing options are available.

  • More than five hours battery life on a single charge
  • Full color, high resolution display
  • Compact and comfortable to hold
  • Simple, intuitive, single-button operation
  • Lanyard to keep it comfortably at hand
  • Electronics enclosed in protective shock-resistant case
