Scan & Go

Since it reopened last October, the Sam's Club store in Grapevine has been a peek into a whole new retail future. Instead of waiting in lines at cash registers, customers use Scan & Go technology to pay for items with a phone app. AI and computer vision are used to keep store shelves stocked. Automatic floor cleaners keep things spiffy. Other upgrades include a vertical tire carousel and automated forklifts. And if shoppers get hungry, a robot in the cafe will be happy to make them a pizza.
