Unplugged, portable, touch screen POS
Pioneer POS Solution Inc., doing business as Pioneer Solution Inc., a global technology company established in 1994 and based in Southern California, added StealthTouch II to its extended line of integrated touch screen solutions. The portable, touch screen POS terminal's flexible design includes a hot-swappable battery and dual-hinge base, designed to complement an array of fixed and mobile settings, the company stated.
The all-in-one device has a 15-inch capacitive screen and is built to withstand harsh conditions and high-volume environments. Its fanless operating system is powered by Intel Quad Core or Core i5 processors. The touch computer is compatible with Windows 7, POS 7, Windows 8.1, Windows 10 and Linux operating systems.
Michael Flores, Vice President of Distribution at Pioneer Solution, noted its long-lasting, interchangeable 5200mAh and 13400mAh batteries enable the StealthTouch II terminal to operate independently of electrical power sources. "We initially deployed StealthTouchII through our healthcare division, where it was used with unpowered medical carts," he said. "It was so well received that we recognized its potential for POS and other industries."
Multiple peripherals, settings
The StealthTouch II terminal is designed for versatility and ease-of-use, Flores added. Its dual-hinged stand employs a tension-controlled hinge designed to adjust to flat, vertical and wall-mounted configurations and view angles.
He additionally noted the device supports a diverse array of peripherals, including the following:
- Payment card readers: StealthTouch II supports the magnetic stripe reader, contact EMV (Europay, Mastercard and Visa) reader and contactless near field communication reader.
