What is kiosk mode?
By using kiosk mode, you can limit the functionalities that users can access when using the headset. Here a choice can be made between kiosk mode for applications and kiosk mode for videos. When the kiosk mode is set for an application, for example, the application is automatically started when the user puts on the headset. The user then does not have the option to exit the application. Kiosk mode for videos works the same way. When the user puts on the Pico Neo 3, the selected video will automatically start. Here you can play several videos in succession and determine the order. When the headset goes into sleep mode, you can choose to resume the videos where they left off or have them played again.
