The InfoCenter was originally an electronic road sign created in 2008. It was the only customizable electronic sign on the grid; however, it suffered from some design flaws that limited its usefulness prior to the update.
InfoCenter Mobile
The original InfoCenter Mobile (simply the InfoCenter at the time) featured a similar display and control system. However, the font was badly-aligned in the texture, forcing the display prims to be rotated to hide occasional texture bleeding on the bottom of each prim. Additionally, glow was far overused, to the point of it becoming a running joke (although not necessarily a meme). The original arrow and warn patterns also used a lazy hack - instead of using a texture animation, it simply used block text characters in a certain pattern.
For the update, the body was mostly replaced with a SOM sculptie to lower the prim count. Because of this, some extra characters could be added on the display.
