We offer Pre-Engineered and Custom-made Kiosk enclosures to withstand the most demanding public environments. We have a variety of affordable models that can accommodate almost any peripheral components to suit virtually any kiosk application.

We have designed Modular Kiosks that can be disassembled and packed neatly in a very small box, transported to the site and reassembled.

Optionally we can design an enclosure to meet your exact requirements.

 
                                 
                                  

The current trends is more towards small cabinets and is rightly pointed out by Mr. Derek Fretheim, president of CeroView

"I think the biggest difference from yesteryear to today is that the technology is going miniaturized, where the size of the enclosure is smaller. Having a smaller form factor has had an impact for end customers for sure. The old bulky units were unappealing compared to the fluid designs of today."

Based on this theme we have designed Kiosk Enclosures that are not-bulky, but power-packed and still lean, slim, trim and thin. Enclosures that are secure and can immediately grab the users' attention. Enclosures and surroundings that can depict a theme or an Advertisement Campaign.

You name an application and we can design a kiosk that fits into place.

The options available for KIOSK enclosures are

 
Base Material Metal, Fiberglass, Wood, Combination
Finish Powder Coat, PU, Gloss/Mat Paint, Digital Imprints, Laminate, Lacquer
Touch Monitor LCD - 15", 17", 19", 21", CRT - 17", 19", 21"

TOUCH SCREEN TECHNOLOGY

Introduction
There are five basic types of touch screen technology: resistive, capacitive, infrared, surface acoustic wave (SAW) and strain gauge. Resistive and capacitive are the most commonly implemented although all the technologies are viable and suited to different applications.

Resistive Technology  Back
This technology uses two layers of conductive material to create an X/Y grid (vertical lines on one surface, horizontal the other). When pressure is applied to the flexible top layer (typically Mylar), the grid surfaces come in contact and allow current to flow. The presence of current in a vertical and horizontal line gives the X/Y coordinates of the touch.

Resistive 4 wire Technology   Back
4-Wire resistive touch screen is the preferred solution for low cost applications. It consists of a conductive bottom layer (ITO Glass or Film) and a conductive top layer (ITO Film). The two layers are suspended by many very small spacer dots.When a certain point is touched, the top layer contacts the bottom layer and a voltage charged by the controller is applied to the bottom layer's electrodes. The coordinate X axis of the touch point can be detected by measuring the voltage value thru the top ITO layer and the coordinate Y axis of the touch point can be detected in the same way by changing voltage input to the top layer's electrodes.

Resistive 5 wire Technology   Back
5-Wire resistive touch screen is the preferred solution for applications requiring durability and reliability over time. Similar to the 4-Wire technology, 5-Wire touch screen also consists of a conductive bottom layer (ITO Glass or ITO Film) and a conductive top layer (ITO Film). The fundamental structure difference between the two is: in the 5-wire technology, all the electrodes are placed on the bottom layer and the top layer acts only as a voltage measuring probe. Therefore, the touch screen works properly even with damages or scratches on the top layer.

Resistive 8 wire Technology  Back
8-Wire resistive touch screen is the preferred solution for applications requiring accuracy and no re-calibration over time. It is designed based on the 4-wire resistive technology with each edge providing one more sensing line as a stable voltage gradient for the touch screen controller. The functionality of additional 4 lines is to obtain the actual voltage generated by the drive voltage, so the touch screen controller can automatically correct the drift issue resulted from the harsh environment exposure or long time usage.

Capacitive Technology  Back
Capacitive Touch Screen is an all-glass touch screen with double side transparent conductive coating. There is electrode pattern printed along the edges distributes a low voltage field over the conductive layer. When a finger touches the screen and draws a minute amount of current to the point of contact creating a voltage drop. The current flow from each corner is proportional to the distance to the touch point. The X/Y location of the point of contact is calculated by the controller and transmitted to the computer.

Infrared
These touch screens are similar to resistive, infrared screens project horizontal and vertical beams of infrared light over the surface of the screen. When a finger or other object breaks those beams, the X/Y coordinates are calculated. These screens can also be used by workers with gloves and are relatively impervious to damage. Dirt, flies and other objects, however, do offer the possibility for registering stray touches or blocking the light emitting or receiving apertures. Workers who "cruise" with their fingers before touching the screen can also trigger a false response.

SAW  Back
In Surface acoustic wave technology high frequency sound waves are transmitted through vertical and horizontal axes on the screen. When a finger touches the surface, it shortens the time for the "echoes" to reach receivers, giving the location of the touch. SAW technology can also register on the Z axis, determining the amount of force exerted on the screen. Gloves are not a hindrance to operation and these screens are relatively impervious to stray touches. In addition, if an application requires measurement on the Z axis, SAW is a good choice. A new variation, guided acoustical wave (GAW), directs the signal through the panel itself, not over its surface. This allows the screen to be completely sealed.
SAW and GAW provide the brightest images since there are no overlays to diminish the image.
