At it's simplest, I think the main issues would be: 1. a lock-down mode (kiosk) so that users could not access anything other than the checkout software 2. a barcode reader that provides input to whatever software is being used to connect to the Koha database -- I am not terribly familiar wit

We use Koha selfchecks with generic touchscreens and scanners. Not too difficult to set up. We used Debian with Chrome in Kiosk mode. Later ... We had some 3M selfchecks that we tried to convert using the same strategy but drivers for the hardware were a barrier. If someone has had success with th

I can confirm that the first two are pretty easy to implement with Koha and pure open source. We also use Elo touchscreens with ours. Any computer with enough juice to cough up a web browser should suffice. You will be able to better/easily tweak the interface to better suit touchscreens in Koha 3.
