Unmanned vending machines have these points to be comparable to intelligence

AI artificial intelligence is the future trend. Only by developing production equipment around this point, unmanned vending machines can meet the requirements of smart vending machines. Vending machines have been in China for many years and have been unknown for a long time. This year, as new retail has ignited the fire of unmanned retail, the small and flexible sales terminal model of vending machines has re-entered people’s attention, and In the iterative wave of new business formats such as unmanned convenience stores and unmanned shelves, it is even more optimistic by the industry. Although there is no big hit, in fact, more and more people have quietly joined the market layout. The explosion of vending machines is coming. However, not all vending machines can take this ride. Traditional old-fashioned coin-operated machines and beverage machines will definitely face elimination with the popularity of smart vending machines, and vending machines will usher in a constant wave of smart iterations. So, what will the future vending machine look like? What degree of intelligence can be achieved? 1 Unmanned vending machines are no longer equivalent to beverage machines. The Chinese people’s impression of vending machines is that they sell water and drinks. In fact, in countries where vending machines are developed, such as Japan, the United States, and Europe, the products in vending machines are already very abundant. , Food, play, and even clothes are sold in vending machines. With the development of the Chinese market, the products sold by vending machines will usher in a period of innovation, and more abundant products will appear in the vending machines for sale, and vending opportunities will become as common as'storefronts'. There are already many fresh vending machines for fruits, vegetables, etc. 2 Unmanned vending machines with touch screen purchases have become the mainstream. It is no longer necessary to press various complicated buttons on the machine, and a new generation of intelligent automatic with its own high-definition electronic touch screen. The vending machine realizes a clear purchase interface through operating system settings and design, making your purchase as simple as buying on a mobile phone. Product selection, payment, and shipment are fully intelligent, and consumers can clearly see the types of goods on the screen Price introduction, etc., you can easily buy with your finger. 3 Unmanned vending machines scan code payment into the basic configuration. Vending machines that do not support mobile payment are bound to die. It is only a matter of time, which is beyond doubt. Flexible and convenient mobile payment methods are not only a requirement for consumption upgrades, but also an inevitable technological revolution. The future belongs to young people, and the fashion and convenience pursued by young people will inevitably become the target of business pursuit. 4 Unmanned vending machines and equipment have become big data portals. The smart operating system on vending machines can intelligently control all goods. Every purchase of consumers becomes a data source for user profile and purchase preference analysis. Operators can use Big data analysis clearly understands the needs and preferences of consumers, so as to guide purchase, distribution, sales and other links. Invoicing management based on data analysis allows operators to increase sales more scientifically and effectively. Operators who have a large amount of user consumption data will also become the party who owns consumers in the future. 5 Intelligent management and control of unmanned vending machines instead of manual management. Internet access machines, regardless of equipment failure or out of stock, can respond to the management side (including mobile phones and computers) in real time. For example, when a vending machine fails, the monitoring system will quickly detect and issue a warning; and when the milk or potato chips are sold out, it will promptly send a replenishment signal to the manager, and there is no need to go to the site for inspections, which is very convenient Management of the operator. The intelligent management background can effectively control the precise management of inventory and supply chain, effectively reduce inventory pressure and purchase replenishment pressure, and even achieve zero inventory. 6 Function derivation-more than just a vending machine. It is not just a breakthrough in product selection. In the future, vending machines will be more than just a sales terminal. There are endless possibilities for advertising, social networking, information publishing, communication platforms, and so on. Based on the large-screen design of the new generation of vending machines and the intelligence of the operating system, it is a mature application to realize the display of advertisements on the screen, or it is not necessary that a product introduction like Taobao’s baby details page appears after clicking on the product; Or, posting an object-hunting notice, an advertisement for making friends, and real-time reviews of products on ubiquitous vending machines... are all very possible, and there is huge room for imagination.
