A brief description of the technology used:
The Vending Misers utilized on campus have a custom passive infrared sensor that powers down the vending machine when the area surrounding it is unoccupied and automatically repowers it when the area is reoccupied. A Vending Miser monitors the ambient temperature while the vending machine is powered down. The Vending Miser automatically powers up the machine at appropriate intervals, independent of occupancy, to ensure that the vended product stays cold. Vending Misers are on most campus cold drink vending machines as well as adjacent snack machines (about 40 different locations).
