Smart Retail

As consumers, we enjoy a pleasant shopping experience when the environment is convenient, secure, and comfortable. Smart Retail redefines retail scenarios by automating and enhancing shopping through systems built with antennas and RF modules. Examples include smart shelf systems, handheld inventory terminals, unattended checkout lanes, intelligent interactive systems, smart shopping carts, outdoor parcel lockers, and luxury display cases.

These shopping environments are typically equipped with corresponding antennas and RF modules to enhance customer interactions and elevate the shopping experience.

Technology-Driven Smart Retail Solutions

Modular antennas reduce deployment costs, while remote monitoring minimizes manual labor.

  • Non-contact batch reading

    Scan dozens of items simultaneously, improving efficiency by 10x. Stable performance in metal environments (e.g., shelves) with >99% accuracy.The low cost of passive tags makes large-scale deployment possible.

  • Simplified interaction

    Contactless payments, smart labels, membership recognition, Tap-to-pay or access product info (e.g., ingredients, origin) via smartphones. AES-128 encryption protects against data breaches.Passive mode suits electronic price tags without external power.

  • High bandwidth

    Wi-Fi 6/6E supports 9.6 Gbps for 4K video streams. Anonymized MAC address tracking for customer flow heatmaps. Handles 200+ concurrent devices during peak hours.

Smart Interactive System

Immersive Experience Assurance

  • Wi-Fi 6E MIMO: Triple-band (2.4/5/6GHz) delivers 8K-textured models with lens-amplified 1000" visuals.
  • UWB mmWave: Tracks real-time user shifts, sync-adjusting perspectives to prevent motion sickness.
  • FPC Gesture Antennas: Drive virtual hand sync-motion with haptic texture feedback.
  • 5.8GHz Payment: Encrypted transaction anti-interference.
  • SLAM Arrays: Multi-antenna arrays fused with SLAM algorithms construct 3D spatial maps of virtual stores. When users approach virtual shelves, proximity sensors trigger collision warnings.

Antenna Applications in Other Retail Scenarios

  • Batch scanning, low cost
  • Precision marketing, flexibility
  • Centimeter tracking, reliability
  • Ultra-speed, low latency

Smart Labels

  • Metal-resistant ceramic antennas: Enable metal-surface identification, boosting read range from 0.3m to 5m (>10× improvement).
  • Near-field microstrip antennas: Confine electromagnetic fields within 10–30cm to prevent misreads in dense shelving (error rate <0.1%).
  • Circularly polarized patch antennas: Read stacked items at 3–6m with >99% orientation insensitivity.
  • Bent-slot antennas: Miniaturized low-cost tags featuring 40% size reduction and expanded bandwidth, supporting UHF far-field communication.
