 A company called Zippin describes themselves as: Checkout-free technology for frictionless stores We observed that at the Zippin delivers on this promise and it is completely frictionless.: I was able to go to the store, I picked up an item, changed my mind about it, reselected the same item and still worked fine. The receipt is available via QR Code or at a URL with your credit card information used to get into the store at Fort Worth Magazine Transcript [00:15][Dr. E]How are you doing everybody? You guys are watching TECHEDTV podcast. And we have experience with the [00:22][Dr. E]No Cashier, No checkout lines, right at the airport in Texas. We experienced that. We've seen Amazon Go before. But this one's a little better. No apps, nothing, just a credit card. [00:33][Dr. E]You guys are watching TECHEDTV Podcast. I'm so happy that we have a very interesting technology. It's called Zippin. And I experienced that in Dallas Fort Worth Airport. And let's dive in. They pick up the items they want and zip out. [00:48][Dr. E]No lines, no checkout. Our AI uses sensors and overhead cameras to identify which items have been selected and create [01:00][Dr. E]As you can see, it's a regular store. It's at the Fort Worth Magazine store, convenience store at the Dallas Fort Worth Airport. And it has very simple instruction, just in case you don't understand how it works. First, you place your credit card, get into the store, shop, pick up the items you want, and get out. No waiting, no nothing. Your card is automatic, your credit card is automatically charged with the items you picked. And as you can see here, there's a credit card entrance. So, you you read your credit card. So I pull out my my credit card. Uh, I have some difficulties with the NFC, but I guess I always have problems with that card. Something they have issues because it's metal card. Anyway, so then I slide in the chip and obviously it was red and I was able to get into the store. [01:51][Dr. E]There you go. I mean, then I'm into the store. As you can see, I walk around the different things, there are pillows, there's medications, medicines. They have snacks of every kind. They also have some food items and they're they're refrigerated that you can pick and take with you to the to to the terminal of the airport. There's some accessories for your phone, mobile phone, they have all their toiletries and all kinds of different souvenirs, more snacks, veggie snacks, soft drinks. And more people is around you, also shopping, like with you, just exactly the same way. And then you pick up, in this case it's courtesy. There's the red soda I picked. And I had to kind of return them first and then I can and still detected that it was detect that. And then you depart. Press that button over there and then you're out. Oops. Purchase something. Oh, I had some difficulties there. I tried to wave at the bottom and [02:51][Speaker 2]Sorry. [02:52][Speaker 3]keep the button when it's off like that I push it and go. [02:55][Dr. E]Ah, okay. Thank you. sensor or something. Anyway, so it worked out. If you want to experience this, it's near uh Gate C36 from Dallas Fort Worth Airport and try it yourself. And then wait a second, I didn't get my receipt. So okay, so let me go and get my receipt because they did I don't have an app, so you need an app for this. And uh return. Went back to the store. And I decided to get my receipt. And very simple, there's a barcode there, you will see. You can scan it, enter your credit card information, last four digits of your credit card and the date of the purchase, and you get your receipt. Go ahead. Just gonna scan it. Zippin, zip out, whatever. That's the slogan, that's the name of the company, Zippin. You see that? And uh there you go. You enter your credit card expiration, date on the credit card, you don't wanna see that. And voila. Get the receipt. Retrieve on your mobile phone. I want to show you the receipt, and I want to show you the mobile phone. This is the receipt that you get from uh the transaction. [04:06][Dr. E]It's very similar to the Amazon Go. So, just in case you haven't heard, Amazon has a similar concept. And but now it's becoming more popular, so it's not an Amazon store. This is a different corporation that is created in this for other convenience stores. [04:21][Speaker 4]The same way. So, we put the wall back on the shelf and help you with a beat charge. The first thing we noticed that the store looked just like any other street, just an excuse to test this technology. Just how easy it was. [04:33][Dr. E]Amazon Go app. It's integrate with Amazon, so you get your Amazon experience, I guess, and that's one another competitor of this technology. Uh, just walk out, just like it says. [04:48][Dr. E]In Korea, they have a similar thing, so you so you [04:52][Speaker 4]Someone enters a store, pick some items, convenient stores into the future, will not have anyone, will have any cashiers, will not have any people. ...
