The Traditional Problem
Kiosks used to rely on desktop computers hidden behind panels or inside enclosures. That meant bulk, heat, noise, and frequent maintenance.
ELO eliminated all that with the Backpack series, which combines compact Android performance with industrial reliability.
Setup Simplicity
-
Mount the Backpack behind the display (VESA 100×100).
-
Connect HDMI for video and USB for touch.
-
Power it on.
Within seconds, your screen runs Android—ready to load your kiosk or signage app.
Scalable Management
Every Backpack connects to ELOView, the cloud-based control platform that allows you to manage updates, content, and permissions remotely.
You can push apps to hundreds of devices simultaneously, monitor uptime, and even lock displays into kiosk mode for security.
Common Applications
-
Retail: Price checkers, product finders, loyalty kiosks.
-
Restaurants: Self-order and digital menus.
-
Healthcare: Patient registration and information terminals.
-
Corporate: Wayfinding and meeting-room screens.
Why It Matters
The ELO Backpack simplifies installation and drastically reduces total cost of ownership.
It’s small, fanless, and rugged—engineered for 24/7 uptime in public environments.
