Budget
This project is open-source and there are no licensing fees to consider before trialing or using this software in a not-for-profit context. This means that the entirety of your budget can be dedicated to design, content, compliance and operations.
Software
CLIO is a dedicated web application designed to run within a web browser and does not require much software to produce a functioning kiosk. While some additional software can be added to improve the user experience, the only required software is an operating system, an HTTP web server with PHP 6.0 or newer, and a web browser. All other requirements, such as JavaScript libraries and packages, are handled automatically by the web server, web application and web browser.
Hardware
Kiosk hardware requirements vary depending on the museum exhibit context. CLIO is designed to be hardware- and resolution-independent so that it can be used with any compatible computer, display and input device. Web-based application technologies are widely supported by most computers, allowing institutions with smaller technology budgets to repurpose hardware such as unused and secondhand systems, or utilize a Raspberry Pi (or other economically priced single-board computer).
