Feathercoin pay integration into arcade machines?
-
Just thinking out aloud here and wondering how much effort it would be to integrate a feathercoin payment option into things like pinball machines.
I’m guessing you could just have a QR code on it to scan and then send that address how ever many coins needed for a game.
You would then just need something simple like a Raspbery Pi inside the machine online scanning new blocks as they come in for a payment to that address and then credit the machine. You wouldn’t even need to alter the arcade machine as most have buttons or switches inside for adding free credits and a simple servo operating on a PWM output could be used to press it.
Its beyond my coding ability but could be a fun project for someone.

It’s certainly possible. I’ve always thought things like vending machines, bandits, arcade machines could become cashless and therefore less of a target for vandals.
