Vending machines dispense ammunition at two Alabama grocery stores: How they work [View all]
https://www.al.com/news/2024/07/vending-machines-dispense-ammunition-at-two-alabama-grocery-stores-how-they-work.htmlTwo grocery stores in Alabama currently have an automated vending machine that dispenses ammunition.
American Rounds markets an automated ammunition dispenser which uses artificial intelligence technology to verify a buyer’s identification and age through card scanning and facial recognition software.
The buyer inserts their photo ID, and the machine conducts a 360-degree scan to match it to the ID card.
The machines can currently be found at Fresh Value locations in Tuscaloosa, at 4200 McFarland Blvd., and Pell City, 1009 Martin St. The company plans to expand to other locations in Alabama as well, according to CEO Grant Magers.
