Hotels, resorts and tourist information centers have started to provide a service to their patrons,
simple kiosks to handle common tasks for
travelers:
- Finding and printing tickets, boarding
passes,
- Finding and printing directions, and
coupons, to attractions
- Exploring facility provided
activities and amenities
- Checking the weather
- Checking email or surfing the web
- Updating social
networking sites, and uploading photos
Kiosks that feel like PCs work well in
this environment especially when travelers
are going to be accessing multiple
un-related websites:
- Desktop or wall mount
- Keyboard and Trackball
- Letter size printers
- External media readers and USB ports
- Simple Kiosk Software to lock down
kiosks and ensure appropriate use
- Upper monitors or attract screens to
leverage captive eyeballs
