五:
报刊复杂句式品鉴。
Caper,whichhassmallpilotsinCanadaandNewYorkCity,iscurrentlyhavingcustomersscanitemsonabarcodescannerbuiltintothecart,beforeplacingtheminit.
翻译:
但在这项技术中仍有一些问题需要解决。
Caper在加拿大和纽约市都有小规模的飞行员,目前正在让客户扫描内置在购物车中的条形码扫描仪上的商品,然后再将它们放入购物车中。
解析:
这个长句子的主干为:
Caperiscurrentlyhavingcustomersscanitemsonabarcodescannerbuiltintothecart.本句中whichhassmallpilotsinCanadaandNewYorkCity为定语从句修饰先行词Caper;介词短语:
beforeplacingtheminit.做句子的状语。

厌倦了排队?
再等一会儿,你可能就再也不用这样了。
目前,从亚马逊到硅谷的初创企业,都在努力消除零售店的生产线。
Amazonhasopened24AmazonGostores,whichusecamerasandartificialintelligence(AI)toseewhatyou'vetakenoffshelvesandchargeyouasyouwalkout.
亚马逊已经开设了24家亚马逊Go商店,这些商店使用摄像头和人工智能来查看你下架的商品,并在你走出商店时向你收费。

smartshoppingcarts.Thesecompanieshaveaddedcamerasandsensorstothecarts,andareusingAItotellwhatyou'veplacedinthem.Abuilt-inscaleweighsitems,incaseyouhavetopaybythepoundforanitem.Customerspaybyenteringacreditcard,orbyusingApplePayorGooglePay.
但也有人尝试了一种完全不同的方式来跳过结账:
智能购物车。
这些公司在手推车上增加了摄像头和传感器,并使用人工智能来告诉你放了什么。
一个内置的秤称物品的重量,以防你不得不为一件物品支付英镑。
客户通过输入信用卡或使用Applepay或Googlepay进行支付。
Whenacustomerexitsthestore,agreenlightontheshoppingcartindicatesthattheirorderiscomplete,andthey'recharged.Ifsomethinggoeswrong,thelightturnsred,andastoreemployeeissummoned.
当顾客离开商店时,购物车上的绿灯指示他们的订单已经完成,并且被收取费用。
如果出了什么问题,灯就会变红,然后会召唤一名商店员工。
Thestartupsbehindthesmartcarts,includingCaperandVeeve,sayit'smucheasiertoaddtechnologytotheshoppingcartthantoanentirestore.Amazon'sGostoresrelyonhundredsofcamerasintheceiling.Theshelvesalsoincludesensorstotellwhenanitemisremoved.
包括Caper和Veeve在内的智能购物车背后的初创企业表示,将技术添加到购物车上比添加到整个商店要容易得多。
亚马逊的Go商店依靠天花板上的数百个摄像头。
架子上还装有传感器,可以判断物品何时被移走。
ShariqSiddiqui,CEOofVeeve,saidhe'sfindingincreasedinterestfromretailersgivenAmazon'ssteadyexpansionofGosinceopeningthefirststoreinSeattlein2018."We'realwayshappywhenAmazonisdoingsomething,"Siddiquisaid."Theyforceretailerstogetoutoftheirold-schoolthinking."
Veeve首席执行官谢里克西迪基表示,鉴于亚马逊自2018年在西雅图开设第一家门店以来稳步扩张Go业务,他发现零售商的兴趣在增加。
”“当亚马逊做一些事情的时候,我们总是很高兴,”西迪基说他们迫使零售商摆脱旧式思维。
”

Veeve正在西雅图一家不知名的零售商中测试几辆购物车。
该公司宣布将在2019年初进行更大规模的部署,西迪基表示,该公司正在与该国10家最大零售商中的两家进行谈判。

但在这项技术中仍有一些问题需要解决。
Caper在加拿大和纽约市都有小规模的飞行员,目前正在让客户扫描内置在购物车中的条形码扫描仪上的商品,然后再将它们放入购物车中。
这个过程有助于教人工智能系统识别商店的商品。
