The Smart Digital Store Smart Store Guide

With the Smart Store Guide, shoppers will not have to dread trips to the store, thinking they have to walk the entire store floor to complete their shopping list.  Shoppers can just ask the Smart Store Guide through their mobile phone to find the item’s physical location, the quickest way to get to it, and obtain additional details on the product such as discounts and recommendations. It is as easy as saying, “Ok Google! Talk to the Smart Store Guide. Find me apples,” and The Smart Store Guide responds back with the exact aisle and section where apples are located, and offers the quickest path to get there. Retailers will also appreciate the flexibility and low capex investment for the solution. Compared to other store finder apps requiring continuous store layout and planogram updates, the Smart Store Guide is powered by the latest technologies from Intel and artificial intelligence from Google Cloud, mapping out products in the store via surveillance camera feeds and dynamically adapting to changes made to product locations.
