A significant usage of kiosks can be witnessed at public forums, owing to their easy accessibility for users. For enterprises, it has emerged as one of the methods for providing easy self-driven services for accessing the facilities provided to their users. Another advantage being the space required for a kiosk setup is limited, thereby, saving the setup cost of enterprises. Additionally, kiosks also eradicate the use of extra man power for functioning operations as it can be directly operated by the users, thereby reducing company expenses. Thus, significant time saving can be achieved for end-users, as basic operations can be performed directly by the user, as per one's convenience. Since the setup cost is low for a kiosk, it can be moved to another potential region in case of business failure.
