New Coke fountain dispenses 100 flavors
March 3, 2009
Atlanta Journal-Constitution: Coca-Colais testing what it calls the "fountain of the future," a sleek red machine, about the width of a refrigerator and protected by more than 20 patents, that can dispense more than 100 different beverages.
The machine greets consumers with a touchscreen that displays a host of brands, including Coke, Vault, Powerade, Fanta, Dasani, Minute Maid and Mr. Pibb. When consumers pick a brand, the screen moves to a set of flavoring options.
The machine is currently in a test phase at Atlanta-based fast casual, Willy's Mexicana Grill.
