Self-service kiosks your customers can't break.
A self-service kiosk has to start your app every time, keep customers inside it and recover on its own. Ours do that at the firmware level, and integrate the printer, scanner and card reader your workflow needs.
From tap to order, with no way out of your app.
The customer only ever sees your app. Underneath, the firmware hides the system bars, blocks installs and USB storage and restarts on schedule; the printer, scanner and card reader are wired in as part of the hardware.

Where this hardware works.
Common applications by industry, and the setup we would typically build for each. Every project starts from your site, so sizes and parts change with it.
Self-ordering at the counter
Customers browse the menu, customise and pay, while staff concentrate on the kitchen.
- Typical setup
- 15–32" self-ordering terminals or table-top ordering displays, with printer and card reader integrated.
- What matters here
- Fast at peak hours and locked to the menu app.
Self check-in and key cards
Guests scan an ID, pay and receive their key card without queuing at reception.
- Typical setup
- Counter or floor kiosk with ID scanner, card reader and key-card dispenser integrated.
- What matters here
- Guests stay inside the check-in app; staff have a hidden exit.
Patient check-in
Patients register on arrival, scan an ID or insurance card and receive a queue number.
- Typical setup
- Counter kiosks with scanner and ticket printer, connected to the queue system.
- What matters here
- Simple screens and reach heights that suit everyone.
Tickets and concessions
Visitors buy or collect tickets and add snacks without waiting in line.
- Typical setup
- Floor-standing kiosks with ticket printer and payment terminal.
- What matters here
- Reliable through long opening hours.
Pay stations
Drivers pay by ticket or by number plate at a pay-on-foot station.
- Typical setup
- A kiosk or open-frame terminal with ticket reader, printer and card payment.
- What matters here
- Unattended operation day and night.
Wayfinding and directories
Interactive maps help visitors find shops, rooms and services.
- Typical setup
- 43" or 55" floor-standing kiosks (1080×1920).
- What matters here
- A large portrait screen readable from a distance, updated remotely.
One team, from the board to the software.
A typical rollout stitches together a board vendor, a panel supplier, a firmware contractor and a software team. We design the board, build the display and write the firmware ourselves, then integrate your software — so when something has to change, one team changes it.
-
01 BoardDesigned in-house
Android boards with the I/O your peripherals need — USB, RS232 and GPIO.

Kiosk enclosures, touch panels and mounting built in our factory, in your colours.

04 Software and testingIntegrated and burned in
Your ordering and payment software, as most of our kiosk customers run today — or LUMA AI Studio, with payment planned from 2027.
Built to your spec.
Standard products ship as they are. For a project, any of these can change — and because the board, display and firmware are ours, the change is made at the source.
- Printer, scanner, card reader, camera and NFC
- Enclosure colours, logo and graphics
- Portrait or landscape, screen size and touch type
- Your app preinstalled and locked in
- A hidden staff exit you define
- Floor, wall or counter mounting
Hardware for this job.
Most of our kiosk customers run their own ordering and payment software today. Ordering and content software is also available from LUMA AI Studio, with integrated payment planned from 2027. Kiosk mode guide
Self-Service Kiosks
Can customers escape to Android?
No — system bars, settings and installs are locked; a hidden staff exit is configurable.
Can you integrate printers and card readers?
Yes, as part of the kiosk hardware project.
What happens if the app freezes?
Scheduled restarts and a watchdog bring it back without staff.
Which kiosk sizes are available?
Floor-standing 43" and 55" information kiosks, self-ordering terminals from 15 to 32 inches and counter units from 10 to 21.5 inches.
Do kiosks have to meet accessibility rules?
In the EU, the European Accessibility Act has covered self-service terminals such as ticketing, check-in and payment machines since June 2025; in the US, ADA reach ranges are widely applied. We design the enclosure height and controls for the rules of your market.
