How Can You Build a Kiosk from a Tablet? Part 2
Thursday, April 4, 2013 - 13:11

We wanted to create an interactive system for less than $750 per kiosk. By using tablets, we reduced the cost to less than $600. The key to success is to know your audience, your exhibit’s content, and the technology you use.

Tablet-based kiosks should never distract from the objects in the exhibit, but should allow visitors to explore their interests.
