Nguyen van Dong and his automatic vending shop

Nguyen Van Dong demonstrated his skills by activating a karaoke card, then saying ‘Con duong xua em di’ (the old way you went in the past) and the music began.

At Dong’s automatic vending shop, customers select items and make payments without checkout counters. All they have to do is insert cards into a slot at the shop and then press buttons to complete transactions. 

All the links of the system were installed by Dong without assistance from technology experts. 

“It took me only 15 days to do from A to Z. But the results are wonderful,” he said.

Dong used the set of solutions comprising programming language closer to natural language and V-Logic platform that programs automated processes.

With the increasingly high popularity of IoT (internet of things) devices, the demand for programming languages that regulate devices has also been increasing. 

However, due to its complexity, this remains the ‘holy land’ of IT (information technology) and automation specialists. Users can only use devices as they are initially set, and cannot customize the devices as wanted.

Luong Ngoc Tuan, CEO of V-SYS, and co-workers decided to develop solutions which allow specialists in different fields and normal users to set up device control land regulation systems themselves, without any deep knowledge of IT.

In general, IoT devices are set with VB and Python programmed languages. But the languages are complicated and can only be used by experienced programmers with deep knowledge, and it takes months to set one system.

The problem doesn’t exist in V-Logic because it uses language close to human language. Instead of complex codes, V-Logic users use very simple commands which allow them to set programs within a couple of weeks. Children also can become coders with the simple language.

As a result, professionals in the industry and ordinary users can set optimal processes themselves, easily pack their knowledge and distribute it in the market.

Tran Luong Son from Vietsoftware said V-Logic has great application potential which may cause a revolution in programming IoT devices.

V-Logic has been used to set up a shrimp feeding system and automatic acupuncture machine.
