Self-Service Content Reviews

  • Kiosk Tech Support — The webpage discusses an innovative solution for kiosk tech support using mobile video. Advanced Kiosks has introduced a “Show & Tell” EZ Support tool that allows users to upload video explanations of their issues directly to technicians. This tool uses the phone’s camera to scan a QR code, enter basic ID info, and shoot and upload a video showing the problem. The page highlights the importance of effective tech support for kiosks, emphasizing benefits such as maximizing uptime and performance, enhancing user experience, reducing costs, providing data-driven insights, and enabling scalability and flexibility. The article also mentions the role of proactive maintenance, remote monitoring, timely software updates, and centralized control in achieving these benefits.
  • PIN on Glass — The webpage discusses the use of “PIN on Glass” (PoG) technology for payment kiosks in the U.S. This technology allows customers to enter their PIN on a touchscreen device instead of a physical keypad. For PoG to be acceptable, it must meet specific security standards and certifications, including PCI certification and hardware requirements. The page also highlights the importance of security measures, such as encryption and tamper detection, and considerations for implementation, including compliance deadlines and consumer trust. Additionally, it addresses legal considerations related to accessibility and security standards.
  • ISE Europe — The webpage discusses the Integrated Systems Europe (ISE) 2025 event, which will be held from February 4-7, 2025, at the Fira de Barcelona, Gran Via. ISE is a world-renowned annual tech show for the systems integration and audiovisual industry. The page includes information about the event, such as registration details, exhibitor lists, floor plans, and hotel booking options. It also features the latest news, testimonials, and statistics about the event.
