It's more like the supermarket keeping track of what isles people are going down and what items they are looking at. Which supermarkets would do if they could because it's extremely valuable data.
- cosmie 6y ago> Which supermarkets would do if they could They can, and they do. Here[1] is a random example of applying that to a supermarket (the other pages on that vendor's site shows some of the other ways the tech can be used). Solutions tend to use a mix of video camera data and cellular data (wifi and bluetooth beacons[2]) to track in-store movements and behavior. Done well, they can also connect individual store journeys to specific point of sale transactions, and understand hoe variations of in-store behavioral patterns ultimately influenced actual transactions. Which opens the door to running in-store optimization experiments very similarly to how you'd run A/B optimization tests for websites/apps.
