At EuroCIS 2024, Toshiba Global Commerce Solutions will give retailers the chance to experience transformational business solutions like the Toshiba Vision Kiosk. This cutting-edge retail solution is one that "bypasses barcodes completely by automatically identifying and validating items." With potential uses in convenience, pharmacy and specialty store settings, this computer-vision self-service kiosk helps customers make purchases quickly with contactless and biometric payments powered by PopID.
For decades, the CPG industry has depended on barcodes for product identification and inventory management but with advancements in computer vision and smart checkout systems, they face the potential of becoming redundant.
Toshiba's booth at EuroCIS 2024 will also showcase other innovations that leverage AI, computer vision and edge computing like the TCx SMART Self Checkout and Self Checkout System 7, all of which are part of a composable and modular portfolio.
