Sharp, clear and detailed images make plasma screen kiosks a good choice for business owners who need to provide information or services to customers or clients in a simple, interactive manner. Interactive kiosks have become a standard business tool. They are often used in high-traffic areas such as hotels, banks, hospitals and restaurants.

The modern business kiosk is a stand-alone computer terminal that may come with a keyboard and monitor or a plasma touch screen. The touch screen provides an extra measure of simplicity by allowing customers to touch the screen directly to choose what information they wish to view.

Plasma kiosks use specially designed software to customize data for individual business owners. Some types of kiosks, that can be designed with a touch screen plasma interface, include:

1. Financial services kiosks that perform more complex tasks than a traditional automated teller machine;

2. Interactive touch screen kiosks used to distribute items such as movies;

3. Photo kiosks that you can install in your business to aid customers in printing digital photos;

4. Security kiosks that you can install to monitor guests and protect your business;

5. Directory kiosks; and,

6. Ticket kiosks.

Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done

Use interactive touch screen kiosks to provide information or help sell your products


When placed in hotels and resorts, interactive touch screen kiosks help business travelers find local information and travel advice. Banks use plasma kiosks to disburse cash to customers, to provide financial information, and to sell financial products and services. Restaurants have found that kiosks can be used to improve service and accuracy of orders.

I recommend: Advanced Kiosks offers small, plasma screen kiosks less than 2.8 inches thick that can be wall-mounted as well as large free-standing kiosks and custom designed kiosks. Kiosk Information Systems offer more than 30 standard models of kiosks. Some will distribute items, include digital sign space or dispense specialty products like cell phone ringtones.

Choose a portable plasma screen kiosk for traveling exhibitions


Whether you are a manufacturer, museum, school or non-profit, you can use a portable kiosk. Plasma kiosks can be used to present information at off-site events such as trade shows, conventions or a traveling exhibition.

I recommend: Kioskpros offers several portable models of kiosks with various options, including interactive touch screen kiosks. Kiosks 4 Rent allows you to rent a portable kiosk for a short-term event such as a trade show.

Set up an outdoor plasma screen kiosk to provide services or information while your office is closed


Outdoor plasma screen kiosks invite customer participation. They can be used as a convenient ATM, to sell tickets or to provide directions. Colleges, hospitals and non-profits may set up an outdoor kiosk to provide information about services, the organization's history or directions.

I recommend: Meridian Kiosks offers the Titan line of outdoor kiosks that come in different finishes. It can be used in any climate. PlannedLegacy.com custom designs kiosks for non-profits.
