The kiosks are touchscreen and provide a short video with an overview of Hands-Only CPR. Guests are then given a practice session and a 30-second test with the help of a mannequin. The mannequin provides feedback to the kiosk about the depth and rate of compression, as well as proper hand placement – factors that influence the effectiveness of CPR.
