Offering a range of functionality including price checking, item information look-up, and loyalty program administration, Image Kiosks give you the ability to assist and communicate with your customers effectively and efficiently – all without requiring them to seek out an employee.
Features include:
Software Utilities
Power Tools
Power Tools are software utilities on our Dolphin Mobile Computer and Image Kiosk devices that provide several out-of-the-box solutions for application development and deployment, including retrieving device information, customising the user interface, working with the registry, networking, and passing bar code data to applications.
Our Power Tools include:
EZMenu, a customizable program launcher that creates application windows that can launch menus, windows and applications. In addition, EZMenu enables you to have control of the user experience and lock them out of the system environment if required.
ScanWedge, to capture and send data from the device’s decoder, serial port and IrDA interface to the foreground application as if it were entered via the keyboard.
Registry Power Tools, to provide user-friendly interfaces for working with the registry, including registry backup, restore and editing.
WebScan, an application that provides quick and seamless integration of scanning functionality into new and existing web-based applications using the Image Kiosk. In addition to hosting a web application, WebScan also controls and performs all of the scanning functionality provided by the Image Kiosk. The direct benefit of this is that the web application is not burdened with additional source code that is typically required when using a proprietary ActiveX control for the decoding logic. This greatly reduces the development effort, complexity and support for the web application.
Integrates Existing Web Applications With the On-Board Scan Engine: Eliminates the need for additional software in your application to control scanning operations.
ActiveX Alternative for Browser-Based Development: WebScan does NOT use ActiveX in any way thereby eliminating the need for developers to learn proprietary functionality
Non-Proprietary Browser: Offers the same functionality as Microsoft® Internet Explorer®.
Automatic Failover and Recovery: Detects and performs web server failover and recovery that is transparent to the end user and requires no manual intervention by your IT staff. A customizable HTML page appears during a failure condition and your application continues where it left off after recovery.
EZConfig
This suite of software utilities simplifies configuration management of Dolphin and Image Kiosk devices. Device configuration data is stored in files that can be deployed to your devices via bar codes or a USB PC connection. With EZConfig, you can create a configuration file and deploy it to all of the devices you manage without having to touch each device, ensuring that each device has the same default configuration.
Remote Device Management

Terminal Emulation
PowerNet Twin Terminal Emulation Client
Connects WLAN-enabled Dolphin Mobile Computers and Image Kiosks directly to host applications via TN3270, TN5250, or TNVT terminal emulation and industry-standard TCP/IP protocol. Designed specifically for WLAN devices, this software is packed with features that provide customized functionality for wireless data collection including keyboard mapping, automated login capabilities and pass-through printing.
Development Tools
Software Development Kits (SDKs)
These are all the tools developers need to develop rich, powerful Microsoft® Windows Mobile® and Windows® CE applications for Dolphin and Image Kiosk devices. The SDKs contain all of the APIs needed to use the features unique to the devices such as decoding and image capture. In addition, the SDKs support multiple programming languages (C/C++, C# and VB.NET).
.NET controls and C++ libraries for imaging, decoding, signature capture, radio management, and IrDA printing
C++ library for GSM/GPRS application development in Dolphin Mobile Computers
Extensive Visual Studio documentation and help files
Application samples including Compact Framework 2.0 support
ITScriptNet™ OMNI
A simple yet sophisticated user interface that makes developing solutions for Dolphin Mobile Computers and Image Kiosk devices both efficient and cost-effective. Developers are empowered to harness the multifunctional data collection capabilities of these devices, including keypad and touch panel input, 1D and 2D bar code scanning and image capture. With the power, flexibility, and ease-of-use of ITScriptNet OMNI, you can create a wide range of data collection solutions for inventory control, asset management, warehousing, retail, meter reading, document tracking, and production tracking.
Delivers powerful programming tools such as VB Scripting, conditional branching, indexed validation files and pick lists, and data formatting support for text fi les, Excel, Access databases, and ODBC data sources.
Scripting capabilities allow you to control every aspect of your data collection program.
Adds sophisticated data validation including Data Masks, First Character Matches, Min and Max lengths, range checking, symbology matches and even look-up files.
Enables simulation of your program right on your PC.
