February 24, 2026 EuroShop 2026: POLYTOUCH® – Multimodular self-checkout for maximum flexibility in retail

With the POLYTOUCH® , we present a self-checkout system that is consistently tailored to the requirements of the retail sector. Developed in close cooperation with major German retailers and based on over ten years of experience in kiosk construction, the multimodular terminal sets new standards in flexibility, ergonomics, and scalability.

The modernized version with integrated age verification is currently on display at EuroShop 2026 in Hall 6, Booth C61.

Developed with practical insight

Before the first sketch was created, there was dialogue with retailers. The goal was to develop a self-checkout solution that could be precisely adapted to different store concepts and shopping baskets—from traditional food retailers to hardware stores.

The POLYTOUCH® is available in two versions: countertop and checkout counter. With an integrated scanner in the work surface for a familiar, intuitive checkout process in classic checkout procedures—customers perform the usual steps, only in self-service mode.

Powerful hardware, maximum modularity

The Intel®-based Pyramid POS from the Pyramid portfolio serves as the standard POS system.

  • 15.6-inch touch display
  • Intel® Alder Lake N97 processor
  • Power supply for all peripheral modules (no separate power supply required, except for payment)
  • Comprehensive interfaces for seamless integration into existing infrastructures

Modularity down to the last detail

Numerous modules and equipment options are available for the cash desk version:

  • Audio & navigation keypad for accessibility
  • Coupon scanner and coupon box
  • Cash management solutions
  • Bag holders and shelving systems
  • Cash desk material available in either real wood or stainless steel

This creates a scalable system that can be integrated into any store design, both architecturally and functionally.

Automated age verification – faster, more discreet, more efficient

A particular highlight is the AI-supported age verification in collaboration with Innovation Technology Ltd.

The camera- and software-based solution classifies the customer's age in real time and automatically approves the sale of age-restricted items—without manual intervention by staff and without the need to present identification.

Benefits for retailers:

  • Accelerated checkout process
  • Relief for staff
  • Greater acceptance of self-service
  • Reduced queues
  • Discreet and comfortable user experience

This solution increases both efficiency and customer satisfaction, especially in high-traffic stores.

At the current EuroShop 2026, we are presenting the enhanced version with automated age verification. Visit us at our booth and experience pSyCO in action.
