Our partners Optimal Station and CAV presented Automated Verification solutions at The NAMA Show 2022 take place at McCormick Place, Chicago on 6 to 8 April 2022.

The automated verification solutions support different types of verifications including facial recognition for age and document scan for ID verification. A vending machine with verification solutions is meant to be able to sell those age-restricted goods, controlled products, and regulated merchandise such as cigarettes, tobacco, alcohol, CBD products and also certain medications.

This solution is particularly useful when it comes to unattended retail that are selling items that have age restrictions as it can effectively prevent minors from purchasing restricted items by using the automated age and ID verification process.

With the simple and quick solution, what customers need to do is only to choose the product from the vending machine, make payment, scan their face for for facial recognition and verify their age by putting in the ID card. Once done, the product will be dispense to the customer.
