Restaurant
and Hospitality Kiosks
Self-Service and Point of Information
The touch interface is universal
and can be used by anyone, regardless of language, education, or socioeconomic
or cultural background. The natural, intuitive feel of a touch interface
makes every user an instant expert.
A free-standing, countertop, or
mini kiosk strategically placed in the hotel lobby, airport concourse,
or customer dining area enables visitors to make their own choices
about the services you provide, while helping to build customer loyalty
and reducing employee overheads. Customers can use kiosks to check
in and check out, order their own meals, make hotel and plane reservations,
become acquainted with local tourist spots, and even book and collect
movie tickets.
Kiosk touch products are available with a host of touch
technologies. Elo's IntelliTouch surface-wave technology is the
most widely used for kiosk applications because of its clarity and
resistance to scratches. SecureTouch technology provides an additional
measure of resistance to breakage and vandalism because of its tempered
glass construction. Elo's projected capacitive technology is
the best choice for drive-through and outdoor kiosk applications that
are exposed to harsh weather conditions.
Point-and-Touch Monitors for POS
Elo
can provide a sturdy, rugged touchmonitor for a casual dining environment
or something stylishly designed to blend in with the décor of
the finest dining establishment or hotel lobby. And when cost is the
key criterion, Elo's affordable
12", 15", and 17" LCD touchmonitors provide a solution
that will accommodate your budget. Our countertop/desktop POS systems
(such as the 1229L and 1529L) can fit into less space with a smaller footprint than older cash register
systems.
Elo
offers touchmonitors with an array of integrated peripherals, along
with HID and OPOS software compatibility that application developers
require. Options include a magnetic stripe reader (MSR) and rear-facing
customer display, including a full 12" VGA monitor that can deliver
targeted digital advertising or interact with the customer as an independent
touchmonitor. Peripherals are always integrated ergonomically into
the housing and designed to harmonize with the refined styling of the
monitor.
Designed for Touch
Elo monitors (such as the 1529L) are designed for touch from
the ground up, with fewer peripheral communication and power cables,
ensuring space-saving simplicity and clean, easy installation.
- Full
connectivity built into the monitor, including a USB hub
- Stable tilt
bases that are removable or reversible for wall mounting, with mounting
holes for countertop security
- Spill-resistant sealing
- Attractive styling
from all angles, with cables hidden from user view
- Controls on the
side rather than the front, with a lockout function
Space-Saving
Touchcomputers
Elo's all-in-one touchcomputers offer a complete system in the same footprint as our touchmonitor.
Silent, fanless, and with full connectivity, they provide the ultimate
in stylish, space-saving efficiency and are equally effective for POS
and self-service applications.
Choice of solid-state embedded system
or built-in hard drive
- Optional peripherals integrated in a compact
design

slot, speakers, and mouse and keyboard connectors

Made to Order for
OEMs
Elo offers OEMs a range of touch technology components. In fact,
Elo touch technology is implemented by more manufacturers of POS systems
worldwide than any other. These technologies include the following:
- Elo's AccuTouch five-wire resistive, the world standard in POS
touch technology
- AT4 four-wire resistive technology, which provides
a cost-effective solution for small form factor applications, such
as handheld devices
- Advanced CarrollTouch infrared, chosen by the
world's
largest manufacturer of POS systems
- Elo surface capacitive technology,
for backward compatibility with existing systems
Elo can also design
and build complete customized touchmonitors or build directly to your
design specifications. Take advantage of Elo's well-established
supply chain and Asia-based controlled manufacturing processes to deliver
customized quality while lowering your costs.
Sealed for Public Access
 Elo's
open-frame touchmonitors for kiosks (such as the 1739L and 1939L) are the industry's first
sealed touchmonitors designed specifically for public-access kiosk
applications. With a custom-designed chassis and sealed bezel surface,
Elo's versatile open-frame
touchmonitors integrate easily into your kiosk design. Elo also maintains
the fixed outside dimensions of open-frame touchmonitors much longer
than the average plastic-case monitor manufacturer, reducing the chance
you will need to redesign your kiosk around a monitor component change.
Interactive Digital Signage
Bigger
is better. Today, networked digital signage is attracting customers'
attention everywhere. Large chains appreciate the benefits of multicasting
information across locations instantly, as well as the possibilities
of targeted narrowcasting of their message at scheduled times. Take
your digital signage one step further with the interactivity of touch.
Elo can produce both tabletop and rear-mount touchmonitors 32" (such as the 3220L) and
larger for your specialized application.
A Kiosk on Your Countertop
Elo's
countertop/desktop touchmonitors (such as the 1529L) and touchcomputers are perfect for
a wide range of hospitality kiosk applications for which cost, mobility,
and flexibility are key criteria. Countertop/desktop displays can fit
into just 25 to 50 percent of the footprint of a freestanding kiosk
enclosure. Interactive displays can be easily moved around to meet
changes in floor space layouts. Elo's countertop/desktop touchmonitors
are packaged in different form factors designed to be placed on existing
hospitality fixtures, such as shelving, countertops, a customer service
desk, or a concierge station.
