LocknCharge, a developer of mobile phone charging, storing, security, and technology management solutions, recently launched the new FUYL Enhanced Smart Locker System, according to a news release. The app-based kiosk allows self-serve access to devices while also providing full security and control. The product comes as a response to the rising use of technology in classrooms and increasing device breakage rates in schools.

Technology difficulties during the school day can lead to classroom disruption and “costly and complex hardware asset management triage,” according to the news release. The LocknCharge FUYL system allows students and employees to check out a loaner device within two minutes, improving outcomes and streamlining efficiency. The kiosk allows users to report a broken device and instantly obtain a working one without any outside assistance.

"LocknCharge is excited to put the power back into the hands of students and employees with our FUYL Enhanced Smart Locker System," said LocknCharge CEO James Symons. "Improving access to technology securely is at the heart of what we do at LocknCharge, and our newest solution is a testament to that."

FUYL is a hardware and software solution that also offers device management and asset tracking solutions. School IT professionals can track device assignments, breakage rages, and more through the portal, providing visible and transparent data that schools can act on. FUYL can also integrate with an organization’s existing identity management system, the news release reports.
