Lightweight for Easy Installation and Shipment
Its compact design and flexible features make it an ideal all-in-one solution for modern self-service needs. Additionally, its lightweight construction reduces shipping and handling costs, and it can be easily installed by a single technician.
Smart Kiosk Management with AI and Remote Monitoring
Advantech-Aures provides a powerful remote device management solution, DeviceOn, designed to enable centralized monitoring and control of hardware, software, and peripheral devices. This platform allows businesses to remotely manage equipment across multiple locations, significantly improving efficiency and reducing the need for on-site maintenance.
By simply adding a camera to the kiosk, businesses can further enhance their setup with iVisionSuite, Advantech’s AI-based video analytics platform. This integration unlocks advanced features such as loss prevention, people detection, and facial recognition.
One of the key benefits of this integration is the ability to prevent theft and unauthorized activities in real time. For instance, if an item is removed without payment, iVisionSuite can detect the event and alert staff immediately—minimizing loss and enhancing security. Additionally, the video analytics engine helps generate valuable insights into customer behavior, including engagement patterns and foot traffic.
DeviceOn and iVisionSuite together provide a scalable, intelligent infrastructure for retail and kiosk operators. This powerful combination not only helps maintain a secure environment, but also drives operational efficiency, enabling data-driven decisions that improve service delivery, customer experience, and business outcomes. Advantech’s integrated solution empowers businesses to transform everyday kiosks into intelligent, AI-enabled service points—ready for the future of smart retail.
