Digital payments and software services company [Cantaloupe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/self-service-commerce) newly introduced The 46 kiosk, developed by [Three Square Market](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sungiven-foods-expansion), as the [most accessible kiosk](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/accessibilityfocused-products) in the micro market industry. The kiosk gets its name from its large 46-inch screen size, which boasts full ADA compliance for individuals with mobility challenges, those who use a wheelchair and/or those with vision impairment. Reportedly, customers of all ages, and all abilities, appreciate the large screen size and its ease of use.

With the press of a button, the screen drops to an accessible height, as well as other features like built-in speakers, an audio jack and a braille overlay.

The 46 comes built into a custom cabinet fixture and it promises to make sure that everyone is served, regardless of their abilities.
