The options available for presentations are varied, but which one would work best for your application depends on how you want it to use. Here are the few options:

Keyboard stations allow the user, usually an employee, to step through the presentation with a customer giving visual backups to the verbal information that the speaker is bestowing. This type of presentation waits for the operator and allows the customer to ask as many questions as they need to without having the presentation run ahead. It works more like a slide show than a movie. It can also be programmed to work like a touch screen kiosk without the cost of the touch screen.

Interactive kiosks are probably one of the most versatile of the multimedia tools presently available. They allow the user direct and active control over the information being given, making kiosks perfect for applications such as navigational guides and product information displays. They combine the strengths of speed and accessibility with sight and sound to create not only an effective means of information dispersal, but also a memorable and fun to use method great for all ages and levels of computer experience.

Touch screen presentations are gaining popularity. They are fun to use and allow the user direct control over the information they receive. It operates unattended and can be updated with new information when needed. They make wonderful navigational guides also.

Sequential presentations are perfect for in-store window displays, or in other areas where direct user access is either not available or not desired. At trade shows, where interaction with potential customers is preferred, a continuously playing sequential presentation can be used to capture attention and get viewers engaged in conversation with sales representatives about job particulars. A non-continuous sequential presentation has applications such as corporate training and initial product demonstration where you don't need to have the same information playing over and over again. This type operates just like a regular video.
