{{main|Interactive kiosk}}
An electronic kiosk (or computer kiosk or [[interactive kiosk]]) houses a computer terminal that often employs custom [[kiosk software]] designed to function while preventing [[User (computing)|users]] from accessing system functions. Indeed, ''kiosk mode'' describes such a mode of software operation. Computerized kiosks may store [[data]] locally, or retrieve it from a [[computer network]]. Some computer kiosks provide a free, informational public service, while others serve a commercial purpose (see [[mall kiosk]]). [[Touchscreen]]s, [[trackball]]s, [[computer keyboard]]s, and pushbuttons are all typical [[input device]]s for [[Interactivity|interactive]] computer kiosk. Touchscreen kiosks are commercially used as industrial appliances, reducing lines, eliminating paper, improving efficiency and service. Their uses are unlimited from refrigerators to airports, health clubs, movie theaters and libraries.
