Recently, public computer terminals called "kiosk terminal" become popular in museums. Kiosk terminals explain the exhibitions of the museum by displaying digital contents constructed on the WWW. Generally, existing WWW browsers are used for the browser application for kiosk terminals. However, because existing WWW browsers are designed for the personal usage, there are not suitable for the public usage such as the kiosk terminal in the museum. In this paper, we propose a new browser named "BTRON Kiosk Browser" which can browse digital contents on the WWW and provides suitable user interfaces for the public kiosk terminal. We explain technical problems which are necessary to give suitable user interfaces for the public kiosk WWW browser, and propose our BKB user interface techniques to overcome these problems.
