Amazon may unveil a supermarket completely run by Robots soon

Feb 9, 2017, 15:27 IST
Amazon as of now has one of its progressive "Go" grocery stores open as a major part of a trial. In the event that you missed the launch in December last year, it's a place where you can simply walk in, take what you need, and leave. There are no lines and no cashiers. Simply pick, grab and, well, go.

Amazon has plans for a two-story, automated supermarket run totally by droids. A staff of robots on the top floor will automatically grab shopping from shelves and bring it down to customers waiting in their cars underneath. This implies each store will just need to be controlled by a minimum of three staff at a time.

The supermarket's huge layout could reach anywhere in the vicinity of 10,000 and 40,000 square feet and sell more than 4,000 items.

This story was first published on the New York Post, with the headline, “Inside Amazon’s robot-run supermarket that needs just 3 human workers.” Jeff Bezos not only shot down the idea of a Robot run market, rather he mocked NYP. In any case, if the source proves reliable, Amazon's arrangement to automate the store with robots will come as meager amazement to numerous onlookers. The eCommerce goliath has as of now invested heavily in robotic technology, which, like other big companies, is using to cut work costs and enhance efficiency.
