Multi-tablet Kiosk Setup
« on: August 04, 2012, 09:07:03 PM »
Hey everyone,

I just purchased 5 Nexus 7's and am planning on using them as mini touch screen kiosks for my business. I am interested in sharing and discussing the use of the Nexus 7 as a Kiosk information center for many users to come and access various forms of media.

My business is providing computer timing for running races, and I plan on using the tablets in a results tent for spectators and finishers to view how the runners had placed/finished.

One of things I am looking to setup, is a way to securely attach a security cable to each tablet so that they won't be easily stolen. I haven't quite found the best solution yet, but am interested in anyones opinions on the subject.

I am an active web app developer as well as android/iOS developer, if anyone has any custom apps they want made I may be interested in helping out.

Unfortunately, none of these are an attractive solution. 

If you don't mind glue on the back:

If you want to try and rig something for cheap:

Maybe add a cable to the last one? Hope you find a solution.
