Creative Vending Machines

There are a lot of ways CBT is used in everyday life. ATM, BART ticket stands, kiosks and vending machines to name a few. We got used to see them and know that most of the time the instructions on the screen are very easy to follow, illustrated and have an option to choose different language. Usually the descriptions are very short, presented step by step, and there are options to go back to the main menu.
Here are some creative uses of vending machines from Japan (found on-line).

1) Flower bouquet vending machine


2) Coffee Vending Machine



3) Hello Kitty Popcorn


4) Snickers Vending Machine!


5) Coca-Cola Vending Machine



6) Smart Vending Machine. It does not give you a car right away but the brochures with the information about the dealerships.




7)Umbrella Vending Machine!



8) Book Vending Machine
