Key Takeaway
Advantech DS-011 and ITD-2000 Series displays pair compact edge computing with responsive touch for retail kiosks and interactive POS. Flexible connectivity and a durable display interface simplify integration and support intuitive self-service experiences.
Executive Summary
Advantech pairs the DS-011 edge signage player with ITD-2000 Series industrial touch displays to create a modular kiosk platform. The DS-011 runs the application and manages display, network, camera, and peripheral connections. The ITD-2000 Series provides the customer-facing interface through a choice of display sizes and a durable true-flat touch surface.
Powered by the Qualcomm QCS6490 platform, the DS-011 provides 12 TOPS of AI performance, dual HDMI output, dual GbE LAN, USB connectivity, and optional GMSL camera support in a slim 19 mm chassis. Windows on Arm support enables modern kiosk and retail applications on an energy-efficient edge platform. The ITD-2000 Series adds FHD visual clarity, 10-point projected capacitive touch, glove support, an IP65-rated front, and IK08 impact resistance. Fully functional USB Type-C and built-in KVM control further simplify connected kiosk and service-counter installations.
Application
Smart Retail Self Service Kiosks and Interactive POS
Customer Challenge
A retail kiosk must fit into a compact enclosure while supporting a dependable customer experience and the devices required for payment, identification, imaging, and service workflows. Space Constraints: Kiosk enclosures must accommodate computing, display, cabling, and peripherals without becoming bulky or difficult to service.
Interactive Performance: Customers expect immediate response when browsing products, entering information, or completing guided service steps.
Peripheral Complexity: Cameras, scanners, payment devices, printers, and network connections require flexible I/O and consistent system integration. Public-facing
Durability: Frequent touch, accidental impact, dust, and cleaning demand a display designed for continual commercial use.
Solution Architecture
The DS-011 and ITD-2000 Series form a two-layer kiosk architecture that separates application computing from the customer-facing interface.
Kiosk Computing and Connectivity
The DS-011 provides the application platform for interactive retail content, transaction workflows, and connected peripherals. Edge AI Capabilities: The Qualcomm QCS6490 platform delivers 12 TOPS for vision-enabled and context-aware kiosk functions. Display and Camera Support: Dual HDMI output and GMSL, USB, and IP camera options support interactive displays and vision-based applications. Network and Peripheral integration: Dual GbE LAN and USB interfaces connect retail networks and commonly used kiosk devices. Compact deployment: The 19 mm slim chassis and Windows on Arm support help system integrators build space-efficient kiosk enclosures.
Interactive Display
The ITD-2000 Series displays retail applications through a responsive and durable industrial touch interface. Flexible Display Selection: Models from 21.5 to 31.5 inches allow the same platform to support counter, kiosk, and larger self-service formats. Responsive Touch: FHD resolution and 10-point projected capacitive touch provide a familiar interface for browsing, data entry, and guided transactions. Front-surface Protection: A true-flat IP65 front and IK08 impact resistance support frequent public use and routine cleaning. Simplified Connection: Fully functional USB Type-C, optional Power Delivery up to 65 W on supported configurations, VESA mounting, and built-in KVM control reduce cabling and service complexity.
Business Value
The integrated platform gives retailers a consistent foundation for customer-facing kiosks while preserving flexibility for different enclosure sizes and service models.
For Shoppers: A responsive touch interface and clear visual guidance make self-service steps easier to understand and complete.
For Retailers: A compact edge platform supports interactive content, connected devices, and future AI functions while the protected display surface withstands high daily usage.
For System Integrators: A modular compute-and-display design simplifies enclosure development, peripheral validation, maintenance access, and reuse across multiple kiosk formats.
