Different Types of Touchscreens For Kiosks

Touchscreens for kiosks that rely on a touchscreen to navigate the system are very important. The kiosks touchscreen is going to determine the size of the overall kiosk as well as the software you run on the touchscreen. So when selecting touchscreens for your kiosk, there is more than just cost that you need to consider.

When selecting the right touchscreens for kiosks, you have to think about what information is going to be displayed. Will the screen show web based information or just a list of shopping that has been scanned through the kiosk? You may need big touchscreens if you are showing lots of information so that the font size of the information is readable.

For touchscreens that are use in public areas and don’t have any supervision, you would need a touchscreen with a re-enforced screen, to protect the screen from vandalism and general damage.

If you need advice about the types and sizes of touchscreens that are available to use with kiosks, please contact us and we would be happy to advise you.

Ipad Kiosk V’s Touchscreen Micro Kiosk

Are you wondering which is the best; an ipad kiosk and a touchscreen micro kiosk? If you have a personal ipad, you will know how versatile and fantastic they are. They software is amazing and it all looks so styled and cutting edge, no wonder people want to use the ipad as a kiosk, but are ipad kiosks a serious solution?

The problem with ipads is that they are designed for personal use, and not designed to be used day in and day out by hundreds of people. Ipad are not robust enough for public use, so although your ipad kiosk might work brilliantly for the first 9 months, it will have a shorter shelf life than a designed for public use micro kiosk.

Ipad kiosk websites are confusing and misleading people with slogans such as ‘Industrial Quality iPad and iPad 2 Enclosures and Stands’. This slogan intends you to read ‘Industrial quality ipad and ipad 2’; however it is only the stand that has industrial qualities. However, in most cases when a kiosk is faulty, it is not the enclosure or stand that causes the kiosk to be defected; it is the computerised parts or the touchscreen.

With so called ipad kiosks setting the bench mark, many kiosk companies are now developing micro kiosks – small, mini sized kiosks that look sleek and contempory just like an Ipad kiosk but with industrial quality parts and touchscreen. Micro kiosks also have their software locked down to protect them from hackers and viruses.

Probably one of the most beneficial things about buying a micro kiosk is that it is covered by warranty for this kind of use and you can be covered with customer support. If your ipad kiosk becomes faulty, you’re left in the lurch, looking at the prospect of shelling out for a new ipad. If your micro kiosk goes wrong, you call a service engineer to pop out to fix it.

Topping the bill, the Eidos delivers on price. Eidos is around £500 less than other kiosks on the market that have fewer winning features. But just because the Eidos costs less on average, it doesn’t mean that the quality has been compromised. Careful design and use of materials have helped keep Eidos at a price point that wins.
So what does Eidos give schools for their money?
For a start Eidos is user friendly by all people no matter how tall or small they might be. The Eidos was built to be wheelchair friendly, which means that the screen is accessible to seated user. Likewise this means that a younger child can also access the Eidos touchscreen. But this doesn’t mean that the kiosk is too low for an adult male to stand to use. The Kiosks is uniquely designed so that everyone, short or tall can access the kiosk.
The kiosk also has the latest multi-touch touchscreen technology. Multi-touchscreens make web based information on the kiosk look fantastic and also makes the kiosk enjoyable to use. Multi-touch touchscreens are screens that work in a simply way to the ipad. Because the screen is modern and a high specification in popular mobile phone, kids instantly find the kiosk user friendly and enviable; which transpires into high usage.
Eidos is great to have as a focal point in a reception area because it looks high tech and the LED lights that illuminate the head of the kiosk draw attention to it, beckoning the next user to step up.
As mentioned earlier, the Eidos is wheelchair friendly, as well as having other potential disability aiding features including a hearing loop and bigger text and button facilities for users with visual issues, and the kiosk can be fitted with a telephone handset.

Get Extra Assistance with The New Disability Friendly Eidos Multi-touch Touchscreen Kiosk

There are not many kiosks on the market that comply with the Disability Discrimination Act to offer the same level of service for all regardless of disability. But Eidos is a kiosk that can be used by organisations to give assistance and self-service to most service users despite of any disability they might or might not have.

Eidos is the newly designed kiosk from Kiosk4Business that has only recently been launched. Kiosks4Business has worked closely with councils and the NHS over a number of years, and what they have learnt is that public sector services need DDA kiosks; touchscreen kiosks designed for all users. With this in mind the Kiosks4Business design team set about designing a free standing kiosk that ticked all the boxes and Eidos was born.

Firstly the shape and style of the kiosk makes it to be wheelchair friendly. The screen is low enough for wheelchair users to view and access the screen. Furthermore the base of the kiosk fans out at the bottom, but this flaring begins under where a wheelchair’s foot plates would be so that it doesn’t prevent wheelchair users from getting close to use the Eidos. The screen is angled such that people standing at the kiosk or those seated have equal access too.

The Flaired skirt also protect the kiosks stand from being rammed by wheelchairs, the gentle gradient catches oncoming wheelchairs and brings it to a stop instead of letting the wheelchair bump violently into the kiosk.

Eidos comes with high quality specifications such as a multi-touch touchscreen. The screen has dual purpose, not only does it look fantastic and make the interactive screens on the software look and feel great. The screen also has DDA advantages too. Where motor control is an issue, the touchscreen makes navigating the kiosk so much easier, users can simply touch and drag the screen in a similar way to the ipad screen.

Touchscreens are fantastic for disability kiosks because the screen can instantly make the buttons or text larger or smaller to accommodate users who are visually impaired, or have limited control of their hand and require big buttons.

Eidos is a great design for seamlessly introducing additional features into the kiosk, and additional functionality can be added such as a Hearing loop, a telephone handset or a printer. Adding additional features to Eidos makes the kiosk more disability friendly.

Eidos comes with an illuminated head. LED lighting behind the head of the kiosk gives the Eidos that vogue look. The light of the Eidos makes the kiosk visiable across the room to people who have sight issues.

I suppose you thinking that the Eidos sounds great but all this thought through designing must come at a price. The Eidos is probably a lot better value than most kiosks out there, the basic model including the multi-touch touchscreen being on average £500 less than other companies’ kiosks with lower spec. Eidos offers a great looking kiosk, with versatility at a realistic price that offers value for money.

Eidos is the first in a series of new kiosk designs from the team at Kiosks4business. Checkout our website or call us today for more information www.Kiosks4Business.com 0845 451 2020
