It might change, Forever!

這樣的情況現在可能有改變的機會了！

A few days ago Amazon opened its first Amazon Go Store for its employees in Seattle.

前陣子亞馬遜公司在西雅圖的第一間 Amazon Go 員工商店開張了

Amazon Go is an 1,800 square feet futuristic store that has no cashiers, no registers and no checkout counters!

Amazon Go 是一間占地 1800 平方英尺的未來商店，它沒有出納員，沒有收款機而且也沒有結帳櫃臺！

People can simply walk into the store, pick up the things they want and just walk out!

人們可以直接走進這個商店，挑選自己想要的東西後直接離開

A virtual cart is automatically updated as a product is picked up and when the shopper walks out of the store

虛擬的購物車在產品被取下或是購物者離開商店時會自動更新清單

amazon automatically charges for the products they brought out with them.

亞馬遜公司會自動收取這些被購物者帶走的產品費用

So, How does it all work?

那麼，他是如何做到這件事的呢？

Amazon Go uses a variety of sensors and Algorithms to make a seamless no-checkout store a reality.

Amazon Go 使用了很多種的感測器和演算法實現了一個完美無缺的無收銀臺商店

Amazon named the JUST WALK OUT technology.

亞馬遜公司給這個技術取名為「JUST WALK OUT」

To use the service, the shopper needs an Amazon account and a smartphone with the Amazon Go app installed on it.

要享受這個服務，購物者需要一個亞馬遜帳號和一個裝有 Amazon Go 應用程式的智慧型手機

The entrance of the store has a scanner that the users need to scan their unique QR code on.

在商店的入口處有一個掃瞄機讓使用者在上面掃瞄自己特有的二維條碼

This tells the system that the shopper is inside the store.

這個動作告知了系統這名購物者正在這間商店裡

Now comes to mind-blowing part!

接下來就是令人興奮的部分了！

Once inside the store, as soon as a shopper lifts a product off the shelf,

一旦進入店裡，購物者只要從架上取下產品

it is automatically added to the shopper's virtual cart.

這個商品就會自動被加進這個購物者的購物車清單

Put it back there and the poduct is removed.

把它放回去商品就會從清單中被移除

This is done using an advanced network of computer vision, sensors, deep machine learning and artificial intelligence.

這些是藉由先進的網路結合了電腦視覺，感測器、深度機器學習和人工智慧所達成的

It can detect which product is removed or put back on the shelf

它可以偵測哪個商品被取下或是放回置物架上

and who is putting them on or off using facial recognition technology.

以及引用人臉辨識技術來判斷是誰做了這些動作

Once you've added all the products you want, there's no need to queue up at a billing counter.

一旦你選完所有你想要的商品，你不再需要在收銀臺前排隊

All you need to do is just walk out of the store!

你所要做的就是走出這個商店！

The amount, equivalent to all the products you took from the shelves

所有你從架上取下的商品總額

will automatically be deducted and transfered to Amazon and an e- receipt will be automatically sent to you.

將會自動地被扣除並傳送到亞馬遜公司，然後電子帳單將會自動寄送給你
