It helps people who want to sell personal products.
This vending machine have a special function below.

>Function1: Make sumnail automaticaly.

[Concept]
If you have something not-need, you will want to sell at recycle-shop or by auction site like e-bay.
If you are small farmer, you want to sell vegetables you picked up as soon as possible.
If you are Maker, you want to sell something you made.
If you are ...

You have something to sell. However the way to sell something is not covenient. I'll make a box that makes your stuff sold easily.


My concept is connecting "unattended sales place" to internet. I was inspired by coin-operated locker type of unattended sales place.

[Web Site]
FabAcademy require us to make our own website. It's for recording our load of learning. I construct this web site by using "Aptana Studio". It's an Open source project IDE. I installed Aptana osx version. It's my first try to use this software.
