Good Morning Patrick
For exhibit user interfaces, such as the height for placing a touch
screen monitor -- I recommend the standards set forth by the A.D.A.
(Americans with Disabilities Act).  BTW, it is the law of the
land.......
Best Wishes for Success,
Wesley

Subject: Touch screen monitor suggested heights

We are installing an exhibit that will have two computer touchscreens 
mounted to the wall. One for use by adults, one for use by children.

Is there a recommended height to place monitors for adults and children?

I'm hoping someone who does more exhibits than I will have some 
recommendations. Other than me placing it where it works for me and for 
my 9 year old.

Thanks,

Patrick
