Walmart takes on Target Clinics with “Self-Health” Centers

Source: www.sandiegoreader.com

“Almost factual news” courtesy of San Diego — One stop healthcare ala Walmart. Self-health center with computer kiosks.  Bit of an attitude running underneath the interview which is surprising. Automated drug dispensing.  Grocery supermarket mega market circa 2015.

“Frankly, I don’t know what the competition was thinking on this one,” says Ben Applebaum, Chief Medical Officer at Walmart, Inc. “I mean, it makes sense for Target to offer in-store health-care services to its customers, who aren’t the healthiest bunch in the world. But calling it a clinic? Most people hear ‘clinic,’ and they think of STDs, long waits, and insufficient care. But mostly, they think of being at the mercy of a bunch of overworked, underperforming doctors and health-care professionals. Happily, you won’t find any of that here at Walmart.”

“Our research suggests that the majority of Walmart shoppers don’t trust doctors to begin with,” says Applebaum. “They see them as high-and-mighty swellheads who always think they know best, when really, they’re just there to sign the prescription pad. So, we decided to dispense with them altogether. Customers who visit our Self-Health Centers can use our computer kiosks to consult a variety of health-related websites, from WebMD to doesthislookinfected.com tobettersexnow.net. Then, once they determine the best course of treatment for themselves, they can generate a Feel Good Plan and submit it to our RoboDoc automated drug-dispensary. And once again, Walmart helps you save by cutting out the middleman: our drugs cost up to 15% less than Target’s, because there are no costly doctor’s fees to pay. It’s just one more way that Walmart helps you to save money and live better.”

How To : Bill Jams and Your Payment Kiosk

Bill jams are commonplace when your kiosk accepts cash payments. No matter how advanced the bill acceptor, there’s always that guy that inserts a bill covered in mud, or something worse, and gums up the device.

Good pointer on EBDS and the Crane/MEI SC bill acceptors for kiosks.  Bill Jam is a supported error code for sure.  For multiple BAs too I would recommend native COM ports.

Why ATM Bombs Coming To the United States

ATM machines are vulnerable because the strongbox inside an ATM has two essential holes: a small slot in front that spits out bills to customers and a big door in back through which employees load reams of cash in large cassettes. “Criminals have learned to see this simple enclosure as a physics problem,” writes Summers. “Gas is pumped in, and when it’s detonated, the weakest part—the large hinged door—is forced open. After an ATM blast, thieves force their way into the bank itself, where the now gaping rear of the cash machine is either exposed in the lobby or inside a trivially secured room. Set off with skill, the shock wave leaves the money neatly stacked, sometimes with a whiff of the distinctive acetylene odor of garlic.” The rise in gas attacks has created a market opportunity for the companies that construct ATM components. Several manufacturers now make various anti-gas-attack modules: Some absorb shock waves, some detect gas and render it harmless, and some emit sound, fog, or dye to discourage thieves

Gift greeting card business by Virginia Tech students

BLACKSBURG — Stephan Sabo, David Henry and Adam Donato wanted to go as far as they could with a business idea they initially conceived for a class assignment at Virginia Tech nearly two years ago.

Source: www.roanoke.com

Inside a Card Isle kiosk is a high-end art printer and computer. On the outside, there’s a touch-screen, a place to swipe a credit card and a slot that dispenses the final product.

The artwork for the cards is created by local artists who collect a small percentage of royalty each time a card with one of their pictures is bought. One benefit Card Isle hopes to create is exposure for the local artists who put their work on the greeting cards, Henry said.Buyers can write their own message, but Card Isle also offers its own suggestions.

Card Isle’s founders say the business aims to provide alternatives to the many generic messages found in typical card aisles.

The hand-delivered greeting card industry is still very lucrative, despite the introduction of Web cards more than a dozen years ago, Henry said.

SITA passport control kiosks at Abu Dhabi

Passengers travelling to the United States can now pre-clear U.S. Customs and Immigration at Abu Dhabi International Airport using new automated passport control (APC) kiosks from air transport and government IT specialist, SITA.

Passengers simply scan their passports to identify themselves, provide their fingerprints and a camera on the kiosk captures their face biometric. The passport and biometric information captured is then cross-referenced to verify the passenger is who they claim to be and then checked against government watch lists. There are several immigration questions the passenger needs to answer on the kiosk touch screen, and once cleared, the kiosk prints out a receipt to show as they exit the customs hall.
