Description
The Retail Reality: AI is changing the way we shop
Presented by
Featuring Skip Howard, Co-founder and CEO, Spacee Inc.AI technology is transforming the retail business for companies, customers and employees. Display technology, contactless shopping and near real-time data disseminate information, and optimize order processing and fulfillment processes.
Computer vision, a subset of artificial intelligence, makes the physical world digitally interactive through device-less mixed reality. It’s being used to transform physical retail displays and 3D objects into extraordinary in-store and remote experiences: experiential, interactive, unbreakable and effective. It’s the future of shopping.
Skip Howard explains how computer vision is making the physical world digitally interactive through device-less mixed reality. No helmet, no phone, no tablets. And with hover technology, no touching! He’ll share insights on getting the user experience right and achieving scalable, repeatable solutions. He’ll share his experience of designing in flexibility as a hedge for future changes and customer behaviors, like consumers’ pandemic-driven preferences for contact-free experiences.
