At HIMSS 2026, KIOSK Information Systems (KIOSK), the market leader in custom self-service solutions, will showcase the industry’s most resilient patient engagement platforms, powered discreetly by "zero-failure" computing technology from AOPEN, a global leader in commercial-grade Mini PCs.

Patient check-in is the critical first step in care delivery. When kiosks fail, waiting rooms flood and clinical workflows stall. This partnership addresses the two specific hardware challenges that plague hospital IT directors: infection control and unplanned downtime.

Designed and manufactured in the United States, KIOSK healthcare platforms are engineered to meet ADA requirements while supporting secure integration and enterprise-wide deployment.

Why Healthcare Leaders Should Visit the Booth:

-Infection Control Standard: Featured KIOSK solutions integrate AOPEN fanless thermal design, which is a requirement for sterile clinical environments, since it eliminates dust, bacteria, and airborne pathogens.

-Commercial-Grade Uptime: AOPEN engineers its industrial engines for 24/7 continuous operation - no overheating, throttling, or failing under the heavy load of continuous patient use.

-The "Invisible" Upgrade: KIOSK provides the intuitive, ergonomic interface patients expect; AOPEN provides the hardened processing power hospitals require.

Engineered for the Clinic
"A kiosk in a hospital is a key medical asset," said Chris Longo. AOPEN. "AOPEN is proud to be the intelligence inside the KIOSK solution, providing something clinicians value most: reliability. These units work. Every time."
