Panasonic to offer Pyramid Computer’s interactive touchscreen kiosks

Panasonic will offer Pyramid Computer GmbH's polytouch 32 passport interactive touchscreen kiosks as part of its range of solutions to address the challenge of the omnichannel retail era, according to a press release

Pyramid's solutions, including comprehensive logistical and service support, will complement Panasonic's existing range of retail point-of-sale solutions and rugged tablet and handheld devices.

Pyramid's polytouch 32 passport range of interactive kiosk solutions can be used for a variety of application areas such as product presentations, self-checkouts and information terminals. The devices complement Panasonic's range of retail POS and Toughpad tablet and handheld devices.

«With customers rapidly changing their buyer behavior to use multiple shopping channels during purchases, including traditional stores, mobile devices, online and the growing trend in self-service, new technology solutions are required to facilitate this omnichannel retail era,» Robert Blowers, general manager of engineering and project management at Panasonic Computer Product Solutions Europe, said in the release. «The combination of Toughbook mobile devices and POS solutions, along with the complementary products from Pyramid enables retailers to deliver customers and staff an effective, easy-to-use and consistent technology experience whether it's taking orders on the move, serving at a till or self-serving at a kiosk in-store.»

Pyramid Computer solutions can be tailored to include options such as payment systems, label and ticket printers, bar code scanners and fingerprint readers, said Graeme Derby, UK country manager for Pyramid Computer.

Alongside the retail industry, Panasonic and Pyramid also see business opportunities for their solutions for customers in the hospitality, logistics, health and aviation industries with the increasing need for self-service check-in and check-out systems and ticketing solutions.
