From Experiential Retail Hubs to Grocery Selection Robots
Some examples in the February 2020 retail category exhibit how technology is utilized in brick-and-mortar environments to ensure a higher quality product, efficiency of service, or simply a more immersive experience.
Walmart, for instance, is streamlining operations in its warehouse by introducing an autonomous grocery selection robot that takes food items and brings them to a workstation to be bagged by a human employee. In the United Kingdom, on the other hand, Marks & Spencer entered a partnership with Infarm that delivered hydroponic vertical farm displays for produce in six locations.
Looking to another industry, the February 2020 retail innovation round-up calls attention to how brick-and-mortar bookstores are utilizing technology to stay on the radar of consumers — mostly through the implementation of artificial intelligence and augmented reality.
