[Electronics-talk] getting your drinks at fastfood places

I haven't seen one of these yet, but I wonder if there could be some kind of
software or app created to allow smart phones to access the machine
wirelessly, select what they want and pay for it all by the phone.

Hey guys. I don't know how many of you have seen these new touch-screen
drink machines.

These are the machines that are completely flat screen, and have pages and
pages of drinks and/or flavors to make your own combinations.

They are very cool but I haven not been able to find a way for blind peple
to access them independently. I am pretty pissed that I can't get up and get
my own drink anymore without having a sighted person or an employee waste
time by helping me scroll through pages of flavors just to get a drink!

Anyone have any ideas about this or anything we could do to get these
machines accessible?

I hope this isn't off topic
