I am quite sure that by now, many of us are more than familiar with the “Intel Inside” slogan, where it gained its popularity during the “wars” with AMD many, many years back. This time around, we have word that Intel Corporation will play an important and vast role for the retail consumer experience as the company unveiled a range of technological innovations which will enable retailers to better understand and connect with customers.
Some of the solutions will feature popular brands such as Boulanger, Brooks Brothers, Coop, Levi Strauss & Co., and Nordstrom. Not only that, Intel has also announced the Intel Retail Sensor Platform, which happens to be the first vertical solution that is based on the Intel IoT Platform, where it has been specially designed to enable future retail systems with analytics.
For instance, there is digital scanning with Intel RealSense technology for body measurement to make a custom Brooks Brothers shirt using Size Stream, while one can enjoy a precise foot scanning solution at Nordstrom using Volumental technology in order to provide recommendations for shoes that will be a great fit. How about the Capgemini solution that relies on Intel RealSense and Intel Core processors to instantly translate small-scale physical building blocks into customizable 3-D room or store layouts to allow customers to enter a virtual reality model and design their spaces how they want? It certainly looks like exciting days are ahead with Intel at the helm – or rather, at the core of things. [Press Release]
