This paper aimed at developing the design, the creation, the testing, and the evaluation of
an IoT-based touchless vending machine system to enhance cleanliness, convenience, and
user experience in public spaces, specifically for restroom needs. Physical contact with
the machine is the most common in traditional vending machines, and this only helps to
raise the risk of spreading bacteria and viruses. Touchless technology is popular in
several fields, but there is no evidence yet on its use in vending machines for public
hygiene items. This work will fill that gap through the use of QR code scanning and the
PayMongo API, enabling secure and instant transactions. The purpose of this work is to
advance the research for developing an IoT-based touchless vending machine system that
creates QR codes for product selection and payment, ensuring a seamless and enjoyable
experience. The system is embedded in an Arduino-compatible microcontroller and a
web platform that is connected to the PayMongo payment system. The research included
functionality, accuracy, and security testing processes in which the performance metrics
of the system were determined with factors like QR code scanning, product selection,
proceeding to the payment page, payment verification, product dispensing, item
dispensing accuracy, website compatibility, and error handling. Every single test was
passed, thus proving the whole system is working correctly. The ISO 25010:2023 criteria
were used in the evaluation, with a focus on functional suitability, performance
efficiency, compatibility, usability, and user satisfaction. The grand weighted mean of
4.49, with a descriptive rating of “Very Good”, indicates high user satisfaction and
effectiveness in providing a touchless, sanitary vending experience. This study helps to
advance touchless vending technology by providing an efficient, secure, and user-friendly
option for public areas.
