Yeah. For example, using RasPi boards to renovate the control systems in the aging mail-sorting machines at the main Portugese postal sorting office. (Allowing them to replace banks of nearly-dead monochrome character LCDs with LCD monitors)

It was briefly mentioned, including photos, on the RasPi blog, as something done with traditional RasPi boards before it had to be taken down because the person who reported it hadn't gone far enough up the chain of command when getting permission.

The only non-removed bit I've been able to find is this smaller copy of the photo of the old LCDs that got copied by various sites linking to it.

(It also seems to be one of the few pages I forgot to archive via Firefox Scrapbook but at least they didn't take down the image uploads, so I was able to archive the article after the fact using my RSS reader's history system.)
