INTELLIGENT POINT OF SALE ANNOUNCES NEW ROBOTIC SAUSAGE FINGER EMULATION TECHNOLOGY
“Pork & Apple, the perfect combination”
Ever concerned with the usability of tablet point of sale – Edinburgh, UK based Intelligent Point of Sale Limited has invested in robotic technologies to ensure that their software is compatible with the most digitally-challenged of individuals.
The robotic sausage finger emulator (R.S.F.E.) has been developed by Intelligent Point of Sale to perform user interface tests on their mobile application, intelligentpos – a point of sale solution for retail and hospitality businesses, available on the Apple iPad platform.
Speaking from the company’s head-office comms room, Paul Walton, CTO at Intelligent Point of Sale states “It took me at least 3 hours to build this robot and a further 10 minutes to procure a sausage from a local supermarket. I have witnessed first-hand the issues caused by sausage-finger sufferers such as ‘Dave’ and I am proud to say that we at Intelligent Point of Sale limited are investing in the technology to help those afflicted”.
Please follow the link below to hear more from Jamie Corry (Sales team leader) and ‘Dave’ sausage-fingered ‘customer’, as well as a few candid shots of the robot in action.
