Upgrading Vending Machine Technology in Malaysia

Vending Machine also known as electronic machine used to disperse a product to a consumer after a certain amount of money has been put into the machine. Vending machines are commonly used to disperse beverages and snack items. but in recent years companies have introduced vending machines that disperse other items, even including electronic items such as credit top ups, digital cameras and ipods.

In Malaysia, most of vending machine is offering beverage, foods and snacks where many vending machines are at workplaces, supermarkets, schools and universities. People can just pick up a meal or snack on the go to satisfy their hunger. Many vending machines offer the consumer the opportunity of purchasing 24 hours a day. in term of payment method, normally to buy the products we need to use coins or paper notes. In my point of view, is good for Malaysia to upgrade a vending machine by adding one of new payment method which using card likes Touch N Go or Rapid Pass Card. By this approach may be will ease the consumers to prepare exact amount of coins or notes and save the time to buy the products. Just by touch the card to the sensor system at the vending machine, then the consumers can choose what products they want to buy.

People will be more happy to enjoy the meals with the new concept of "fast and carry" instead of to take a few times stand in front of machine to put in money into it and waiting for the process done. Consumers just need to ensure that their cards having enough money in to enjoy the facility, if not they can top up the card first or use coins or notes if they have it. In addition, this new concept is in line with the future revolution where people are live in fast and advance technology from time to time.

New Pen Computers Redefine Compact

Ultra-Portable Laptops move over, this new technology from Japan is redefining the meaning of the word ‘compact’. Microcomputer and microprojector technology has allowed the Japanese to create these small portable computers that are no longer than your common pen.


Two of these small objects work in conjunction to create a fully capable computer. One of them serves as a monitor by projecting an image on a flat surface, while the other serves as your keyboard once more through projection. Movement sensors can detect where your fingers touch the projected image!


No word yet on when this remarkable new technology will be on the market, or just how powerful they can make these tiny portable computers yet. This is surely the first step in a whole new range of technology we’ll be seeing in the future, though.
