Has Aldi found the solution to self-checkout's woes?

In recent months, numerous examples have emerged of retailers curtailing self-checkouts due to a rise in theft and errors. This week, Aldi joined Grabango in launching ALDIgo checkout-free shopping at a suburban Chicago store. Grabango said its technology"uses computer vision to identify and keep track of every item in the store," which allows shoppers to leave without waiting in line or scanning items.

“The launch of ALDIgo is a pivotal moment for the grocery industry,” said Will Glaser, CEO of Grabango. “Although more challenging, it was important to us to launch this technology in a typical store and not one purpose-built for us. Aldi is one of the most innovative retailers in the world, and we are honored to partner with them to give their shoppers an exciting new way to shop the store.”

Amazon has implemented a similar technology called Just Walk Out for smaller stores. The technology allows customers to buy smaller items, such as candy and soft drinks, without scanning.
