Meridian, HP team up on digital retail offerings

Meridian Kiosks and HP are launching two kiosks for the retail sector.

The first is a freestanding kiosk with a 32-inch touch screen; the second is a countertop kiosk with a 14-inch screen, according to a press release.

Both function as three-in-one kiosks – offering self-checkout, endless aisle and digital signage capabilities – and feature HP MP9 and HP Engage One All-in-One hardware.

Both incorporate barcode scanners, contactless NFC payment devices and touch technology – enabling kiosk users to make in-store purchases, browse available inventory, order online, and indicate shipping and receipt preferences according to the release.

«To excel in the fast-paced kiosk technology industry, you need forward thinking partners with creative ideas and proven expertise in the kiosk field – organizations that can propose and implement not only traditional solutions, but also innovative applications,» Meridian Marketing Manager Stephanie Mewherter said in the release. «Meridian and HP have this kind of relationship. Together, our relationship provides end-to-end solutions, from consulting and designing a kiosk to the integration of the hardware, software, and security monitoring.»
