Abstract: A point-of-sale device including an adjustable screen, an accelerometer, and a processor is provided. The adjustable screen is arranged in a cashier position or a customer position. The accelerometer generates orientation data corresponding to the adjustable screen. The processor determines, via an accelerometer driver, an adjustable screen position based on the orientation data. The processor then generates, via the accelerometer driver, a position change notification if the adjustable screen changes position. The processor then provides the position change notification and the adjustable screen position to an application selector. The processor then launches, via the application selector upon receiving the position change notification, an application based on the adjustable screen position. In one example, the launched application is a point-of-sale application if the adjustable screen position is the cashier position. In another example, the launched application is a self-checkout application if the adjustable screen position is the customer position.
