What is an Information Kiosk?

As the wave of digitalization sweeps the world, Information Kiosk has become an indispensable intelligent terminal device in public places such as shopping malls, airports, hospitals, and scenic spots. As a brand focusing on the development and production of global digital signage, Yetronic will analyze the definition, core functions, application scenarios and future trends of Information Kiosk through this article, and share how to choose a reliable Information Kiosk manufacturer.

Definition and core value of Information Kiosk

Information Kiosk is a self-service terminal that integrates hardware, software and interactive interface. It provides users with real-time information query, navigation guidance, ticket purchase and other services through touch screen, voice interaction or QR code scanning. Its core value is reflected in:

24/7 unmanned service: reduce labor costs and improve operational efficiency
Accurate information transmission: support multi-language switching and dynamic content updates
Data collection and analysis: optimize service strategies through user behavior tracking

According to the Grand View Research report, the global kiosk market size will exceed US$30 billion in 2023, with a compound annual growth rate of 7.2%, among which the retail, transportation and medical fields have the strongest demand.

Hardware and software components of the kiosk

As a digital signage factory with many years of experience, Yetronic controls the three core modules of the kiosk from R&D to production:

1. Hardware system

High-durability body structure: IP65 protection grade aluminum alloy shell, adapt to -20℃ to 50℃ extreme environment
Customized screen configuration: 21.5-inch to 55-inch multi-touch screen, support anti-glare and explosion-proof design
Intelligent peripheral expansion: integrated printer, camera, NFC card reader and other modules (support OEM/ODM customization)

2. Software platform

Yetronic cloud management platform: remote batch update content, real-time monitoring of device status

The customized UI perfectly matches the brand visual system.

Five key indicators for selecting information kiosk manufacturers

As a Chinese information kiosk supplier trusted by global customers, Yetronic recommends evaluating partners from the following dimensions:

1. Full industry chain capabilities

Does the factory have a complete production line such as SMT patch workshop and aging test laboratory?
Yetronic’s Huizhou production base covers an area of 12,000 square meters, has passed ISO 9001/14001 certification, and has a monthly production capacity of 5,000 units

2. Localized compliance certification

The target market must pass FCC (US), CE (EU), KC (Korea) and other certifications
Yetronic products have obtained 60+ international certifications and support global rapid customs clearance

3. Collaborative development of software and hardware

Avoid “assembly production” and choose manufacturers who can deeply customize Android/Linux systems
Yetronic provides full technical support from motherboard design to SDK development

4. After-sales service network

Are there local warehouses and technical support teams in Europe, the United States, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia?
Yetronic has established service centers in 12 countries around the world, with an average response time of <2 hours

5. Cost optimization solution

Reduce maintenance costs through modular design (such as the separation of screen and host structure)
Yetronic provides hardware installment upgrade services to extend the life cycle of equipment

Future trends: How AI and IoT reshape information kiosks

According to the Yetronic technical team, the next generation of information kiosks will present three major innovation directions:

1. AI voice assistant integration: support natural semantic understanding and dialect recognition (online testing in Q4 2025)

2. Digital twin linkage: synchronize physical environment data through IoT sensors (such as heat maps of pedestrian flow)

3. Sustainable design: use solar power supply and recyclable materials (Yetronic green product line reduces carbon emissions by 30%)
