Now, vending machine that recognizes face to dispense only what's right for you

Washington: A new vending machine, with facial recognition technology, has been programmed to identify users and remember their snack preferences, so as to deny them from buying certain foods that don't fit their personal profile.

The Luce X2 Touch TV vending machine that can be programmed to even accessing their age, medical records and vending purchase histories will keep children from buying cigarettes, hospital patients away from salty or sugary foods and keep dieters on track, Fox News Reported.

Malcolm Standage, from the creator company Smart Vend Solutions, said that launching the very first full production facial recognition technology represents an advancement which will bring unlimited benefits to businesses and consumers across the U.K.

The machine, which won't dispense the item if the user's snack choice doesn't fit his profile, has been just unveiled in the U.K.
