US – Revolutionary touchless kiosks announced by Kiosk Innovations

By - 29 May 2020

With stay-at-home orders ending and workplaces, venues, hotels, and restaurants opening back up customers and employees need to feel confident and safe.

Kiosk Innovations has studied the available Covid-19 kiosk safety options in the market and come to the conclusion most available have shortcomings. Voice, sanitizing wipes, AI conversations, speech recognition, mobile proxy and camera-based navigation to name some of them all have limitations in terms of effectiveness and usability.

With that in mind Kiosk Innovations engineers have developed two No-Touch solutions that allow touch-free navigation to mitigate the spread of any virus. Hand Gesture Navigation and Foot Controlled Navigation.

Our foot-controlled (Foot-Nav) and gesture-controlled (Gesture-Nav) can be mounted on any existing or new kiosks with a USB connection. These devices use simple UP, DOWN, FORWARD, BACKWARD, and ENTER/SELECT keys for navigations. They can both be integrated at the same time. The end-user has the ability to use either the foot pedal or the gesture module. The touch screen is still available for those who want to do it traditionally.

Rick Freeman, Senior Vice President of Sales said, “We have evaluated every possible user ‘touchless’ interface available as well as preventative mitigation and after consulting with our customers we came to the overwhelming consensus that for navigation alternatives the most intuitive are gesture and foot navigation. Users not only need trust the interface as ‘clean’ but the technology needs to be easily adopted.”
