Self-service kiosks play a crucial role in retail, banking, healthcare, hospitality, and transportation, providing customers with convenient, fast, and efficient transactions.
However, these kiosks often face usability and operational challenges that can lead to frustration, inefficiencies, and increased costs. We solve the following issues:
-
Inconsistent user detection
Kiosks fail to recognize users, causing delays and frustration.
-
Excessive energy consumption
Displays remain on when not in use, increasing operational costs.
-
Queue inefficiencies
Poor detection slows service and creates bottlenecks.
-
Hygiene concerns
Frequent touch interaction is a risk in high-traffic areas
-
Accessibility limitations
Some kiosks don’t properly detect users at different heights.
Smart Automation for a Better User Experience
Ultrasonic sensors solve these issues by enabling highly accurate, contact-free user detection, optimizing queue management, and improving energy efficiency, resulting in a more seamless, reliable, and cost-effective kiosk experience.
