UK’s High Streets set to become most futuristic in world
Using the very same technologies as those seen in the futuristic film Minority Report, retailers are starting to compete for the attention of passers by with a combination of audio and holographic messages that eminate from their shop windows.
Persuading shoppers to come into their stores is the first challenge that retailers must achieve. Now, with the help of see-through holographic video screens, retailers can display attractive high-impact messages that will miraculously bring their windows to life.
The addition of targeted sound, or sound spotlights, which target individuals passing in the vicinity of the window to deliver crisp audio (music, voice, or both) completes the sensory climax that is set to drive customers into retail stores en-mass.
The technology will be launched later this year to a “by invitation only” crowd that will include executives from companies like the BBC, high street banks and major retail chains.
