Amdocs, a leading provider of software and services to communications and media companies, has been selected by etisalat by e&, the telecoms pillar of e& in the United Arab Emirates, and delivered the autonomous in-store retail experience for its customers in the Emirates.
Visitors to the store can enjoy a frictionless experience by selecting their items and enjoy the flexibility of paying for their items anywhere inside the store using a specifically designed mobile app or at the exit gate. While inside the store, customers will receive real-time updates on their mobile cart as they pick up items, ensuring a personalized and seamless shopping experience.
Amdocs is leading the orchestration in partnership with Trigo, a computer vision technology company, that has provided the cameras, smart shelves, and its seamless checkout system experience.

"We are creating stores of the future that utilize our innovation, expertise and leadership to provide a superior shopping experience for our customers, and will serve as trailblazers in advancing the digital landscape of the UAE.
