This study uses focus groups to explore the challenges people with disabilities experience when using kiosks and potential solutions. Some of the identified accessibility barriers include that they can be difficult to locate. The kiosk's placement can make it difficult to use or touch screen buttons can have a small target size. The kiosk can lack accessibility features like voice support, text alternatives, or screen reading software. Kiosks need to be developed to be accessible to all.
