The smart shopping cart price is relatively low even compared with a cashier’s salary

In a developed country , labour cost is relatively high ,so people would rather use artificial intelligence machine to finish the work of some labour force . For example , in retail industry , retailers are all seeking for self check-out machines to substitute the work of a cashier ,and a self checkout smart shopping cart is a very good choice .

On the other hand , many countries are facing with the increased number of aging people ,they lack of labour force ,in this situation , they would also rather adopt some machines ,such as a smart shopping cart which could support customers check out by themselves .

In some developing country , retailers may think that their labour force cost is relatively low , so they don’t need to deploy smart shopping cart . Actually , in this situation , they just compare the smart shopping cart price with the cashier’s salary .But don’t forget that a cashier just check the customers’ shopping bill and help them finish the payment process .A smart shopping cart could help customers check out , but it also have more functions and could help customers more .

There are main 2 advantages of the self checkout smart shopping cart .

1) Providing frictionless shopping

As a smart shopping cart support customers scan items’ bar codes by themselves and check out by themselves , it can ensure customers be isolated with other people in the supermarket . Under this circumstance , customers’ safety and health can be guaranteed .During the pandemic , the smart shopping cart which provide frictionless shopping is good for both retailers and customers . The value can not easily judged .

2) Sending precise promotions and coupons

Physical retailers have suffered a lot as they couldn’t acquire precise customers’ portraits .A smart shopping cart could collect customers’ shopping data and process these data to useful data assets . Based on these shopping data , the smart shopping cart could send precise promotions and coupons to customers ,accordingly ,per customer transaction will increase That is to say , the smart shopping cart could help increase sales revenue .

So I insist that the smart shopping cart price is relatively low even compared with a cashier’s salary
