“An electronic kiosk houses a computer terminal that employs kiosk software with a simple graphical user interface (GUI) to allow users to obtain information or conduct a transaction while preventing users from accessing system functions. Kiosks may store data locally, or retrieve it from a network. Kiosks commonly include a touch screen, but some use keyboards.” There are several types of kiosks including: DVD kiosks, Retail kiosks, Wayfinding Kiosks, and Internet Kiosks.- Digital Screenmedia Association
