Optimal Robotics Corp. provides self-checkout
systems to retailers in the United States. The
Company's principal product is the U-Scan, an
automated self-checkout system that enables
shoppers to scan, bag and pay for their purchases
with little or no assistance from store personnel.
The U-Scan system is equipped with a convenient,
intuitive touch screen interface, and provides
automated voice instructions that guide the
shopper through the entire checkout process, from
scanning the first item to removing the receipt
after payment. The Company's latest products, U-Scan
Carousel and U-Scan Solo, have been designed to
extend the retail applications of its U-Scan self-checkout
technology. Much like the U-Scan Express, each of
these new applications enables customers to scan,
bag and pay for their purchases with limited or
no assistance from store personnel. Another
product developed by the Company is the Optimal
6300 POS System, a cash register system for
supermarkets. |
