Now day to maintain people’s interest of  something very innovative could be adapted. In order to the make an impact even more to customers, firms like eBay, Walmart, Delta Airlines, have all the  started to the Storefront Digitizing. They use the memory mirror technology. It is nothing but the  virtual mirror where a customer sees him and visualize how they would (let’s say) look by wearing a particular outfit. They don’t have to literally wear it. The mirror is able to store their information, their likes and dislikes, and accordingly can interact with them later if a particular item arrives, say of particular size and color. This technology is going to offer reduction in returns to a greater extent. Then trend is not a surprising one.

The navigational experience is less text-based but more conversation-based in order to find any information.

Beacon Technology :- The Beacon technology is a kind of application which enables different to devices connect with each other via Bluetooth Low Energy  that acts same as the classic Bluetooth but extends to not more than 50 meters, and does not need high battery power either. When the Beacon technology do is sending the current deals and offers, or anything related to products’ promotion, right at the moment the consumer enters the ‘Zone’.

 Drone and Droid Delivery :-  The Drones were introduced many years back but nobody has ever imagined that they are going to deliver stuffs to civilian addresses, it is one of the most pioneering technologies that is going to shape up the future retail industries. A Droid is the a small robotic machine of varying sizes and shapes which follows the commands and does the tasks accordingly. These move on the ground on the pedestrian lane and are capable to handle weight typically between 20 to 30 pounds in 30 minutes or even less. They can  be climb up and down the stairs, have nine cameras to view everything in the surroundings and stream the live video. These also  be have microphone to interact with the customers and a GPS tracking between the source and destination. Their are sensors can sense the interruptions like foot traffic on sidewalks. Droids don’t require to get parked at a parking place, nor do they contribute in vehicle emissions. Then  traditional systems in which the delivery boy first searches for parking parks the vehicle and then walks till he reaches the destination, the tiny droid would quickly reach the delivery address and hand the item to the respective customer, without such interruptions mentioned above.

Suppose you want to decorate your home and have a confusion of what to purchase. You can simply try the virtual objects whichever are visible at the website. This will help you visualize what looks better on your sofas or shelf or center table or walls, and you shop accordingly. You won’t have to choose randomly about which you wouldn’t be sure what might look good and what not! The same goes with the dresses available online.
