So stylish it is, the innovative retail technology from Japan!!!



Innovative retail technologies in Asia most often originate from Japan, like QR Code by Denso-Wave. Recently, I’ve come up with an interesting YouTube link which demonstrates some interesting future store technologies in Japan applicable to stylish trendy boutiques. This may be the kind of “wow” factor the shoppers may look for in a high fashion boutique! These new store technologies are developed by Uchida Yoko (内田洋行) and Toshiba-TEC (东芝泰格).

Future store technologies addressed here include:


  • RFID-taged items on display

  • Intelligent shelves - with on-shelf LCD display of pick-up product information/recommended dishes/comments, 1-to-1 pick-up product comparison with discerning differences, top ranking of item pick-ups, conversion analysis

  • "Stylish” POS – embedded with RFID item scan, RFID e-payment card scan, transaction data display and purchased products’ related information display

  • POS Receipt printed with QR Code about product specific information and corporate website encoded for later access by shopper's smartphone

The lady demonstrator presents in a very professional manner too. Enjoy the show!!!
