Greetings! This week at Trend Hunter, we featured Pro Trends covering modern technology that can now recognize human moods and how the industry of vending machines underwent a serious makeover. Vending 3.0 demonstrates how non-traditional vending machines are on the rise, satisfying the needs of convenience-seeking consumers today. From vending machines that provide Internet access to those that use facial recognition technology, this industry is setting the bar high when it comes to satisfying everyday consumer needs. Enjoy!
