TOKYO - OKI Electric Industry Co. Ltd. has launched SUKIT, a kiosk terminal that will be offered in markets in Japan and overseas, according to a news release. The terminal is compact with a common platform and basic devices, and it enables customers to add optional units such as 2D barcode readers and document readers. This flexibility enables customers to configure settings according to the usage, such as information search, appointment reservation, membership registration, award points management, etc. By including an A4-size printer as a standard feature, SUKIT can print high-resolution documents with a large amount of information.
By combining SUKIT with the Internet, mobile terminals or IC cards, companies can provide non-face-to-face services safely and reliably, 24/7.
"OKI's SUKIT was developed based on our know-how as the leader in the industry and our strong track records in ATMs, self-check-in terminals for airline companies and ticket reservation and issuing systems for railroad companies," said Hisao Suzuki, executive officer and general manager of the Enterprise Business Division at OKI. "We developed SUKIT with a commitment to offering a user-friendly terminal that anyone, even a first-time user, can easily use. As an example, all necessary devices for operation are placed in the front, and a blinking light on the device can guide users through successive steps."
The first SUKIT will be operated at a large-scale general hospital in a Berlin suburb in Germany.
