Amazon launches business selling automated checkout to retailers – News of Bahrain- DT News

Amazon launches business selling automated checkout to retailers. Amazon is set to announce a new business line selling the technology behind its cashier-less convenience stores to other retailers, the company told Reuters.. The world's biggest web retailer said it has "several" signed deals with customers it would not name.. A new website Monday will invite others to inquire about the service, dubbed Just Walk Out technology by Amazon, Reuters reported.. Dilip Kumar, Amazon's vice president of physical retail and technology, had no market forecast to share but said shoppers' preferences will determine how big the business becomes.. Unlike Amazon Go stores, shoppers will insert a credit card into a gated turnstile to enter, rather than scan an app.. The turnstiles will display the logo "Just Walk Out technology by Amazon," but the retailer using the service will control all other branding and store aspects.. Kumar said Amazon will install the technology including ceiling cameras and shelf weight sensors at retailers' stores, whether they are new locations or retrofits, and it will have a 24-7 support line..
