Abstract:
    This system adds innovation to existing dispensers having two main and fantastic features which help health-conscious persons to monitor water drinking routines and dispensing cashlessly anywhere.
What is the unmet need in society that your idea will fulfill ?
    Monitoring the water drinking routines is always been a great issue and also the cashless is becoming new normal so that is why our idea will add up to the health-conscious user segment and cashless fintech innovation to the typical cash-based dispensable vending machines.
Who needs it ? How many would benefit ?
   The users of health app and/or mobile banking app or any e-wallet user who go everywhere with his smartphone or maybe barehanded can access this system everywhere in the country or world, based on the infrastructure (of the system) that how much it would expand.
How will the solution works
    The main components of the system are smart drink dispenser, a web server and mobile application. The system will provide choice-based dispense, multiple options for connectivity with dispenser e.g. using mobile phone, RFID, Bluetooth, or keypad. It will provide consumption monitoring for health-conscious persons as well as can setup water drinking profile with reminders and notifications.The system would be integrated with fintech services when real implementation would be done, not during FYP.
Who are your competitors ? How is your solution different
    The competitors in vending machines of beverages segment and dispensable drinks with such a cashless concept do not exist in our country, although there are some competitors who are currently serving in the packaged food/drinks vending machines segment such as EasyVend, Aruba VMs, and MyVM.
