Today, it is not difficult to find vending machines in places with large passenger flow such as living quarters, stations, shopping malls, and squares. From the perspective of the development trend of vending machines, its emergence is the product of the transformation from a labor-intensive industrial structure to a technology-intensive society. With the increase of income level, people's pursuit of flexibility, convenience, speed and self-service is the main reason for the rapid development of vending machines.

In the beginning, vending machines were selected and purchased in the form of coin-operated and banknotes. Now, almost all self-service vending machines, especially retail machines, are equipped with touch-screen displays, and today’s scan code payment channels have been added. It can be said that it is connected with new consumption methods such as electronic shopping. In addition, modern people are gradually popularizing the concept of intelligent life. It can be said that self-service vending machines will continue to create huge business opportunities!

 Then, as the touch display center of the vending machine, the embedded industrial control all-in-one computer has become the first choice for its application. What is the reason? Please watch as follows:
