AMAZON GO: THE FUTURE OF RETAIL!

download
Amazon Go is a latest retail project of amazon, currently in beta stage. This Monday amazon announces this new retail store with “no checkout process” to be open in early 2017 for customers. Well there will be no Checkout at all, All you have to do is just get into one of these amazon go store before entering you have to switch on amazon go app which will automatically add all the items which you will pick from store in a virtual cart and just after you get out of store it will automatically charge from your amazon account.

Well it seem pretty cool to have no checkout process, no more lines but the question is how’s this possible?

According to amazon they gonna use the same technology which we found in self-driving cars I.e. deep learning, sensor fusion and computer vision along with the amazon go apps technology. But right now it seems pretty tricky as we all know some time customers put things back, some items are sold according to their weight, what if we have to return something and what if amazon charged us for something we don’t even bought. All these questions are not answered yet but we will have their answers when this store will be open for the general public. Currently the only amazon Go (18,00 Square feet) store is situated at 2131 7th Ave, Seattle, WA, on the corner of 7th Avenue and Blanchard Street, America and its under beta stage I.e. it’s open to amazon employees only. You will definitely need an amazon account which should also have some amazon credit or a working credit card linked, supported phone and amazon go app to enjoy shopping in amazon Go retail outlets. In starting amazon will sell only those items which they can track easily along with fresh food items. Stores like these will also cut the need of employing hundred of workers but there are more chances of theft also. Only amazon can make this dream possible, lets see what amazon bring for us in coming year.
