WestRock, T+ink to debut IoT retail fixtures

Smart shelves and smart pegs coming to a store near you.
WestRock and T+ink will be introducing smart shelves and smart pegs to the retail industry during the US National Retail Federation’s ‘BIG Show’ this week in New York.
Using Intel’s Quark processors for IoT, the smart fixtures are equipped with printed electronic sensors that can report on stock levels in real-time and help measure sales velocity, identify low and out-of-stock items, and reduce theft.
In addition, electronic shelf labels will also be incorporated, making it possible for merchandisers to dynamically price products based on inventory levels, sales figures and in-store promotions.
