Digital Signage / Kiosk
We often see and use touch screens on the street.
Right, number of touch screens is increasing in public spaces, especially in urban areas. Digital signage and/or Kiosk are often seen in places such as stations, shopping malls, parks and zoos. With a digital signage in a station, people can get information around the station. In shopping mall, people can achieve shop and sale information from a digital signage. Unlike a digital signage without touch screen, a digital signage with touch screen allows people to choose the information they are looking for.
What technology of touch screen is used for digital signage?
For large size digital signage, infrared and surface acoustic wave technologies tend to be employed. Resistive and capacitive technologies are also common for middle sizes.
