Abstract
Embodiments herein describe techniques for identifying whether a POS system is in a right-handed configuration or left-handed configuration and then updating a software application in response. Embodiments herein describe using images captured of the POS system to determine its physical configuration and then updating a software application so it, for example, provides information to the customer based on the correct configuration. The images can be captured from one or more camera mounted on or near the POS system.
