From personal smartphones and computers to self-service kiosks and customer-facing displays, millions of Americans interact with multi-touch interfaces on a daily basis. Restaurant owners are realizing that POS hardware with multi-touch capabilities make it easy for employees to simplify certain functions. By working with familiar multi-touch user-interfaces, employees spend less time learning how to use POS devices and more time adjusting to business workflows and providing personalized guest experiences.
With “smart” POS gestures, POS terminals become user-friendly tools that can instantaneously launch specific features and functions with one touch rather than through multiple steps. As a result, restaurants improve overall operational efficiency and simultaneously increase staff morale with easy-to-use devices.
Touchscreen “gestures” involve using one or multiple fingers to move around a smart device through both swiping and tapping specific locations on the screen.
