Web Browser / Kiosk Mode with Torizon OS
Introduction
The Torizon browser containers run a browser in kiosk-mode, allowing the implementation of web-based UIs for kiosk applications.
These containers should be used together with the matching weston containers to provide a kiosk-mode user interface with a browser that opens an URL passed as a parameter, does not show error messages/popups and does not allow the user to navigate to different websites.
What is Kiosk-mode
It is a full-screen mode where only the web page is displayed. The user cannot see the window, the top bar, refresh button, or anything else.
Technical Details
Torizon provides ready-to-use container with support for Web Browser / Kiosk Mode .
