Walmart unveils an AI-powered store of the future, now open to the public

沃尔玛在纽约推出智能零售商店

原文作者：Sarah Perez 来源：Techcrunch

沃尔玛日前在纽约莱维顿推出一间智能零售实验室（IRL）。这间智能零售实验室面积超过50000平方英尺（4645.15平方米），30000余件商品，配有100余名工作人员。

新店在天花板上安装了AI摄像头，用来实时监控商品的库存水平。这样不仅便于帮助工作人员更准确的判断何时何地补充产品，也能使消费者在到店消费时，清楚地知道产品和肉类在到货时总是新鲜且有库存。

店内还设置了信息站，有工作人员为消费者解答关于这间智能零售实验室中应用的技术等问题。品牌也表示，对于人工智能将进行更进一步的探索，这间新店在一定程度上也参考了亚马逊无人商店的经验。

Walmart this morning unveiled a new “store of the future” and test grounds for emerging technologies, including AI-enabled cameras and interactive displays. The store, a working concept called the Intelligent Retail Lab — or “IRL” for short — operates out of a Walmart Neighborhood Market in Levittown, N.Y.

The store is open to customers and is one of Walmart’s busiest Neighborhood Market stores, containing more than 30,000 items, the retailer says, which allows it to test out technology in a real-world environment.

Similar to Amazon Go’s convenience stores, the store has a suite of cameras mounted in the ceiling. But unlike Amazon Go, which is a grab-and-go store with smaller square footage, Walmart’s IRL spans 50,000 square feet of retail space and is staffed by more than 100 employees.

Plus, in Walmart’s case, these AI-powered cameras are not being used to determine which items customers are buying in order to automatically charge them. It still has traditional checkout stations.

Instead, the cameras will monitor inventory levels to determine, for example, if staff needs to bring out more meat from the back-room refrigerators to restock the shelves, or if some fresh items have been sitting too long on the shelf and need to be pulled.

The idea is that the AI will help the store associates know more precisely where and when to restock products. And this, in turn, means customers will know the produce and meat is always fresh and in stock when they arrive.

There are also informational stations in the store where customers can learn more about the technology in use. A Welcome Center in the store is available too, for customers who want to learn more about the technical specifications and get answers to common questions.
