For your AI-powered self-service outdoor kiosk, you need a developer with a skillset as diverse and adaptable as the ever-changing weather conditions your kiosk will face. With my extensive experience in technologies like JavaScript and Python, I can ensure that your kiosk is not just resistant to external noise or harsh weather but also smart enough to make the user's shopping journey easier. I've worked on projects involving fast API development which synced data offline, ensuring seamless functioning for users even when they are not connected to the net.
Moreover, I bring a unique combination of hardware and software knowledge to the table. Assembling all the components for your hardware requirements won't be a challenge for me as I have hands-on experience with biometric recognition technologies, camera integration, fingerprint scanners, etc. Having developed applications using React and Angular in front-end and C# in back-end, I could provide you with robust UI/components visualization with immediate response time for interactions (proposals, promotions) inside the kiosk.
Lets discuss .
