The Kiosk Manufacturer Association recently participated in a temperature kiosk market report conducted by IPVM, one of the premier sources for video surveillance. Video surveillance is not the only market that has pivoted to medical device sales (admitted or not). Kiosk suppliers, hard hit by COVID-19, have also joined this emerging segment.
Inside this report, based on an interview with Craig Keefner, the manager of Kiosk Manufacturer Association (KMA) and editor of Kiosk Industry (KI), IPVMe examines where the kiosk market was before COVID-19 and how kiosk suppliers have rapidly ramped up temperature screening offerings.
As a public service it should be noted that some of the investigative research that IPVM conducted identified one of the main Chinese producers of temperature kiosks and many of the American companies relabelling those products, with widely varying profit margins. You can request a list of those products from the KMA.
Some of the recommended models and manufacturers by the KMA include:
- KIOSK Information Systems’ Temperature Screening Kiosk
- OLEA Kiosks’ Temperature Screening Kiosk
- Frank Mayer and Associates’ Remote Temperature Screening Kiosk
- Nanonation Temperature Screening Kiosk
- Pyramid Computer Janus Temperature Screening Kiosk
- 22Miles “TempDefend” Temperature Screening Kiosk
- Evoke Creative Temperature Check Station
