How the Medical Vending Machine works :

1. The traditional non-smart vending machine puts in banknotes or coins, and the currency identifier is used for identification. Select the goods, press the selection button, and the vending machine program adds and subtracts the cash according to the price of the goods. Shipment, if the amount invested is insufficient, there will be a prompt, if the amount is sufficient, it will be shipped directly. Waiting for the further operation of the customer, if you don't buy other things and choose to change, the vending machine will automatically change coins according to the result of the calculation just now, and the shopping is completed.

2. After the intelligent vending machine selects the goods, the vending machine program will initiate a payment application QR code (WeChat, Alipay, or other electronic payment) to the background server, and the QR code will be displayed directly on the display of the vending machine. After the customer scans the code, the back-end server will check whether the payment account has received the money. If so, the back-end server will issue delivery order to the vending machine, and the vending machine will deliver the goods according to the order.

3. The internal control system of modern intelligent vending machines adopts VHDL description language and uses a finite state machine to describe the system state. After a power-on reset, the system is automatically initialized, and different states (such as coin-operated state, and sales state) are converted according to external input signals. , change status). All in all, the vending machines we have come into contact with now have many functions, and the principle is also very complicated. Some of them can be shipped according to the input delivery code without payment. The principle is that the customer enters the delivery code or lottery code, and the vending machine uses the delivery code. Send it to the backend server, the backend server verifies the pick-up code and sends the corresponding shipping instruction to the vending machine, and the vending machine outputs the corresponding product according to the instruction.
