Amazon creates '' grocery store '' in the US – and without cash register

Amazon announced on Monday that it will open a market without boxes or lines at the beginning of next year, the Amazon Go. To purchase products in the physical store of the e-commerce giant, which will be opened in the U.S. city of Seattle, you must only have a cell phone running the application from Amazon and an account on the site.

Amazon''s system can identify what the consumer is taking by means of sensors and algorithms-know even if there was the return of any item. After leaving the store, the customer receives the confirmation of the items bought on the screen of the phone, and the total amount is debited from the account on Amazon.

For now, she is in the testing phase and is accessible only to employees of Amazon. The new technology is called '' Just Walk Out (just get out, in free translation).
