^{Panhandler Machines are a series of devices that automate the exercise of begging on the street, given the rising cost of living and the increasing number of homeless people on the streets of Manhattan. Pan handler machines make it possible to be absent from the begging stand in case of force majeure, avoid possible wrist injuries and can be customized to suit the rhythm of the streets or have specific messages printed on the interchangeable cups. They can be battery operated or plugged into any household socket.}
