I have to admit that I know a form of these are on the way. \u00a0Intelligent Shopping Carts which help you identify what you want to buy, notify you of specials etc.<\/p>\n
However these are engineered for companies benefit moreso than the consumers.<\/p>\n
What I would like is to walk into a store (thinking Supermarket here) – it knows my favourite brands, it knows that I always buy bananas or that if I wander down the meat section I never buy Pork but buy Steak, potentially even it can monitor my shopping habits and recommend new products based on others. \u00a0Kind of like Last.fm but for food.<\/p>\n
So how could you implement this? Intelligent glasses that glow on the products you like. \u00a0Too geeky methinks.<\/p>\n
Shopping Cart is a winner – simply login, swipe each product as you add it. \u00a0Hey you could even tally my purchases as I go. \u00a0Now that would be neat.<\/p>\n
Again like Last.fm needs to be built around the customer – not the supermarket (whom just want to push more products into your trolley). \u00a0If you help me enhance the experience I will shop more often. \u00a0Simple as that.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
