Online retail giant Amazon is planning to create a new kind of store, according to a video posted on Monday. Amazon Go — that's the name of the store of the future — will not function like an ordinary supermarket, which we are so used to entering exhausted and tired after work.

Instead, the app on the buyer's phone will simultaneously add products to the digital shopping cart, and after making purchases, you can immediately leave the store and go home. That's it. No need to stand in an endless queue, communicate with the cashier and wait for the receipt.

The idea is that Amazon's self-learning technology will automatically recognize that you put a product in the cart and add it to the digital cart. The app will also understand if you posted something. And when a customer leaves the store, Amazon automatically debits money from the credit card.

When entering the store, you need to scan the QR code of the application on the turnstile. After that, you put the phone away and go shopping quietly.

When you have selected everything you need, you simply exit the store through the same turnstile.

These stores will occupy a small area compared to the current huge supermarkets — about 170 square meters. Amazon wants to build two thousand grocery stores in the United States within 10 years. And the first point will open in Seattle in early 2017.
