HY TOUCH SCREEN TECHNOLOGY
An Intuitive User Interface
Touch screens can be designed to display
transactions in an easy-to-view manner that
enabled new or experienced operators to use the
terminal with no or minimal training. Touch
screens can also be programmed to display only
what is necessary to complete the particular step
of the transaction, eliminating operator confusion.
A touch screen application can be programmed
to feature short cuts and context-sensitive help,
which provides only that help information an
operator or manager needs to complete that
segment of the transaction. A franchisee of Taco
Bell that installed touch screen technology stated,
"Touch screens have transformed the way we
serve our customers. It was overwhelming how
quickly touch screens were accepted and
embraced by both our employees and customers.
Ninety-nine percent of our business is now
handled via touch screens".
