Zebra brings AI & Robotics Technology to the Retail Market

The first robot in food retailing! The "2020 Shopper Study" by Zebra Technologies shows that 75 percent of surveyed millennial customers and more than 50 percent of Generation X customers who order products online have previously visited shops. One of the main reasons for shopping online is the insufficient availability of goods in stationary retail. This situation leads to a high number of customer complaints and causes dissatisfaction at work for 43 percent of retail employees. 39 percent of the consumers surveyed confirmed that they have already left a grocery store at least once without shopping because the desired product was not in stock. Zebra Technologies wants to eliminate this stock shortage with the SmartSight solution. The objective is to increase the availability of goods to a maximum. The solution includes the EMA50 robot, a software platform and Professional and Managed Services.

Zebra Technologies: Now and in the Future

Zebra Technologies supports seamless communication between suppliers & automotive OEMs The supplier industry in Germany The automotive industry is by far the economic sector with the highest revenue in Germany. No other individual sector employs as many people as the automotive industry. Approximately one third of all employees in the automotive industry work for suppliers. Worldwide, the total turnover of the 100 largest automotive suppliers is approaching the 900 billion mark; however, growth is also noticeably slower. The factors influencing this are complex. Consulting firms assume that the financial situation of numerous suppliers must be better than satisfactory due to the economically successful years from 2010 to 2018. This gives them the scope to invest in research and development as well as in IT and infrastructure. Without these investments, the path into the future will be an enormous challenge. Analysts all over the world agree that it will be difficult for suppliers who have fully specialized in the manufacture of components or development services for all aspects of combustion engine technology to find a solution.
