Content Reviews

  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
