Virtual grocery shopping

2011-08-29 22:40:15.539162+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

UK supermarket chain Tesco, which goes by the name "Home Plus" in Korea, unveils virtual shopping in Seoul train station. YouTube PR video.

Kiosk in the train station has a display of products with QR codes, you scan those with your cell phone, product is delivered to home "right after you get home". If they can figure out how long it's going to take you get home and schedule trucks appropriately, this is pretty advanced.
