Technology and Implamentation

According to a promotional video published by AMAZON, the store concept utilizes serval technologies!
They moved in including computer vision, deep learning algorithms, and sensor fusion to automate and understand what do you want to buy!
Transactions are covered with thier application, when you enter the store you are checking in with your phone and when you are leaving you are checking out, it measures how much time you spent in store..

We are gonna ask Amazon few questions right now:
How they think to regulate minors that are abusing alcohol?
Who will fill the store?
Where will all that cashiers finish after AI take over them?
How to regulate abusing tobbacco?

Cameras in black boxes
Seattle Amazon Go prototype location was delayed due to issues with the sensors ability to track multiple users or objects within the store.
Customers are obligated to download the amazon go app for android and ios which is likned to thier amazon.com account! Smart huh..?
The ceiling of the store has multiple cameras every black box has more then 100 cameras that are tracking what you are buying everything will be explained in following video down below!
