Walmart is about to take the chaos of inventory management and sprinkle some augmented reality magic over it like it’s confetti at a tech conference. Enter VizPick, the latest AR tool that helps employees swiftly scan clothing racks in the backroom. Gone are the days of rummaging through piles of apparel like you’re in an extreme episode of ‘Wipeout.’ Instead, the nifty RFID integration beams a virtual spotlight on the items that need to strut down to the sales floor.
But wait, there’s more! Like a late-night infomercial, Walmart is not stopping there. They’re also rolling out an AI-powered tool for those nocturnal stockers. This clever little assistant helps employees prioritize their task list, like a personal trainer but for stocking shelves instead of squats. Plus, a revamped AI assistant stands ready to tackle a wider range of worker queries. Need a coffee? (Well, it won’t fetch it, but you get the point.)
This is next-level teamwork, and it’s only happening at stores currently testing these features. So, if you happen to stroll into a Walmart and see employees working smarter, not harder, don’t be surprised—it’s all thanks to a bit of tech wizardry.
What are your thoughts? Do you think that AR and AI will revolutionize retail, or will it just lead to an endless loop of ‘do you want to restock aisle 7’ notifications? Let’s chat!
