NOS Cinemas Pilots AI-Powered Checkout-Free Store

NOS Cinemas Pilots AI-Powered Checkout-Free Store

With no checkouts, no need to order products or register them, the store by NOS Cinemas uses machine vision algorithms and sensors to detect interactions with the shelves and, through AI, identify the items recalled. 

Portugal’s NOS Cinemas is piloting a new store within a store concept, developed by Sensei, which works through its 5G and is being tested at its NorteShopping location.

With no checkouts, no need to order products or register them, the store by NOS Cinemas uses machine vision algorithms and sensors to detect interactions with the shelves and, through AI, identify the items recalled. 

This pilot project is part of a Smart Retail consortium, implemented under a Recovery and Resilience Plan, which aims to develop, demonstrate and industrialise technologies to create innovative retail formats that improve the consumer experience.
