HP ElitePOS

HP Inc. is unveiling an all-in-one point-of-sale (POS) system, the HP ElitePOS. The ElitePOS features a modular design that is functional, supporting use cases beyond checkout to make shopping faster and easier for both customers and the sales associates assisting them, according to HP. These use cases include: interactive signage, employee attendance, and self-service applications like a customer check-in and access to additional product offerings in the “endless aisle." The display can be separated from the input/output (I/O) base for maximum placement versatility. There is an optional receipt printer that integrates into the column stand, and an optional magnetic stripe reader built into the display. HP is expanding its security solutions to the ElitePOS, with both hardware and integrated software security features. Additionally, retail independent software vendors (ISVs) Custom Business Soutions, GK Software, LS Retail, Manhattan Associates, Omnico Group, PCMS, Retail Pro, and TCPOS plan to support the new solution.
