Self-Checkout Technology
"A classic study-case in user interface design awaits you at you local Wal-Mart (or any other place that offers self-checkout).
Personally I like the self-checkout (when it is open) as it saves time and I get out the door faster. On the other hand software and user interface is a good part of my life’s work, so I can figure out how the designer meant for things to work. Regular folks tend to be more easily mystified."

They have self check-in on the airports in Norway, but it takes a couple of trips before you get it. You need asistance to use it the first time.
