Abstract
Beverage dispensing systems are provided. Beverages dispensing systems may detect the presence of a person or container then search for a wireless transponder, which in some embodiments is an RFID tag on the detected person or container. Depending on the detection or absence of detection of a transponder, beverage dispensing systems may display information or allow a beverage to be dispensed.
