What happened

Intel published a Coresight report on ten retail technology trends, including agentic AI, intelligent automation, computer vision, real-time inventory and edge computing.

What changes

A connected store can use information about inventory, traffic, interactions and availability to support faster decisions.

Why it matters

An effective omnichannel experience depends on reliable store and inventory information as well as an online storefront.

Implications for businesses

A U.S. retailer can start with a specific need, such as inventory visibility, customer-flow analysis, digital signage or staff training, rather than attempting a complete smart-store overhaul.

Un Rino’s take

The store of the future does not need screens everywhere. It needs fewer blind spots about what is available, where it is and what action is needed.
