Point Of Sale (POS)

Point Of Sale terminals in stores and restaurants will also benefit from touch screen technology, not only in terms of reducing clutter and creating an attractive environment for sales staff and customers, but also by being easily adaptable to changing products and selling techniques, as well as being better suited to hot or humid environments such as a fast food outlet, for example.

In these situations, the touch screen is more impervious to contamination than, for example, a membrane keypad, and can be cleaned more easily bringing both hygiene and aesthetic advantages.

The POS is another environment where the level of skill the operator must acquire should be low. Young people, trainees, temporary staff, and older workers must all be trained quickly, and the intuitive operation possible with a touch screen is ideal for all of these groups.

Moreover, the touch screen also provides an effective way to prevent unauthorised staff from accessing sensitive sales or stocking information, or from damaging the system by altering or entering false information. The touch screen-oriented user interface can be designed to eliminate access to such capabilities through the POS terminal.
