Touchscreen digital signage self-service kiosks have brought tremendous benefits to businesses and organizations, as well as their consumers. While many self-service kiosks are located in rooms, as we discussed last week, there are many use cases, and one outdoor kiosk will drive the best ROI. These kiosks need to be considered in the weather, safety, location, etc. of the place where they are installed. Here are the steps to ensure the success of your outdoor digital signage.
safe
Outdoor kiosks are usually located in public spaces. When public access is made, they can be easily stolen and vandalized. To discourage and prevent tampering, outdoor kiosks should be designed with tamper-proof features such as strategically placed additional solder points and compression locks. Proper security for outdoor kiosks will ensure that the physical, data, and network components of the outdoor digital kiosk are protected.
Environmental and climate protection
If not able to withstand environmental factors, outdoor kiosks will result in a loss of revenue and equipment investment. Outdoor kiosks should be properly sealed to prevent the ingress of water, smoke, and dust. Outdoor kiosks should also have appropriate UV protection materials.
Digital kiosks located outdoors can be exposed to very high temperatures, which requires a built-in air conditioner to avoid damaging the displays, computers, and other components in the kiosk. Another problem that outdoor kiosks encountered was their brightness, due to poor readability caused by direct sunlight. The display should be bright enough, at least 2000 nits of brightness to maintain readability in outdoor environments.
Durable installation
When kiosks are installed on the outside, they are kept open, extreme weather, vandalism can cause internal or external damage. The kiosk should be held in place by highly stable cement to prevent shaking, knocking and vibration.
Industry standards
When designing or building an installation for an outdoor digital kiosk, it is important to choose a manufacturer that follows certain standards. There are many standards out there, among them the International Organization for Standards and the Underwriters Labs of United States. These two industry standards guarantee quality (ISO) and safety (UL). If you choose a supplier for an outdoor kiosk project, it is essential to know if they maintain ISO certification and UL certification. The existence of ISO 9001:2008 enables manufacturers to adhere to strict quality control. Find the right manufacturer for you to guarantee quality and safety.
